Tobacco consumption involves a triple dependency: physical dependency (due to nicotine, which can be overcome with nicotine substitutes), psychological dependency (tobacco helps to manage your anxiety, and behavioral dependency (linked to your social environment). Physical dependence disappears in a few weeks, while psychological dependence can take several months. Even if the first month is the most difficult, each person is different and may take a few days or several months to quit. However long it takes to stop, the main thing is to get there.
