The Drugs Don’t Work

June 16th, 2009  |  Published in How I Kicked The Habit

There are other methods out there such as various pills, and even lasers and injections.

These methods work by stopping the craving for cigarettes. Do not think that drug companies truly understand addiction like you are now learning, and that they have designed these drugs to combat the addiction. Like so many pills that thousands are addicted to, these things only target the symptoms and not the causes. They are not real “cures”.

You are now learning to stop smoking by understanding your addiction, how it works, how it makes you think, how it uses its control. There is no way that you can make a drug that will open and free your mind! Incidentally, some people in indigenous tribes have successfully stopped smoking by using various natural psychedelics that are part of their way of life. However, these are not necessary and can have potentially severe side effects so I advise you not to try them!

A drug cannot open your mind, and most of these drugs were discovered purely by accident to stop cravings for cigarettes. They just work by targeting or inhibiting a specific brain response. The drug scientists do not know why they work - they just know that they do.

The problem is, once the drugs have worn off, you are back to the willpower situation. Ask yourself, do you really want to spend the rest of your life craving cigarettes? Do you really want to run the risk of starting smoking again at some low point in your life because you never truly understood addiction?

Or would you rather be free? Would you rather be enlightened and enriched, and be better educated about the world that you live in?

If you truly understand addiction, then you will never smoke again and never want a cigarette again. No drug can do this for you. And no drug can give you the happiness and satisfaction from truly beating an addiction through understanding. Very soon, you will enjoy this inner happiness too.
