When are we talking about physical addiction?

Very often, physical dependence on cigarettes is defined as the adaptive state of the human body. Nicotine is the main addictive compound - it interacts with many tissue receptors, but its greatest addiction is caused by its effects on receptors in the brain, which build up over time.

What are the mechanisms of cigarette addiction?

When inhaling cigarette smoke, it spreads through the respiratory tract to the lungs, and then the nicotine contained in the smoke passes through the epithelium of the alveoli into the bloodstream. The nicotine from cigarette smoke rapidly enters the millions of neurons in the nervous system.

The harmfulness of smoking traditional cigarettes

Nicotine in the brain stimulates the release of many neurotransmitters (including dopamine). It is dopamine that is mainly responsible for the addictive qualities of cigarettes. It triggers signals that stimulate the feeling of reward, which the smoker experiences as a brief satisfaction, an increase in mood as well as an improvement in concentration.

Increase in dopamine levels when smoking cigarettes

While smoking a cigarette, the level of dopamine increases significantly, and then its concentration drops sharply - as a result of which the smoker begins to feel the so-called hunger (dopamine deficiency) and reaches for another cigarette - thus becoming addicted.

Reasons to quit smoking

Changes in the smoker's body make him demanding more and more nicotine. Therefore, a heavy smoker begins to smoke a cigarette more and more often - it is the result of tolerance - the body's habituation. Regular smoking causes more and more nicotinic receptors to be created and they become less sensitive to arousal.
