戒烟常识
DEADS方法对戒烟的技巧做了很好的概括
• Delay，推迟：如想吸烟，将吸烟的时间推迟 • Escape，躲避：看到别人吸烟时，尽可能避开 • Avoid，回避：回避吸烟的动机 • Distraction，分散：分散注意力
• Support，支持：争取周围人、家庭、社会的支持。 戒烟综合征
常吸烟的人突然戒烟就会出现烦躁不安、头昏头痛、失眠忧虑、咳嗽多汗、心率下降、食欲或体重增加等一系列的不适感。这在医学上称尼古丁戒断综合征，俗称戒烟综合征，戒烟综合征的发生是由于戒烟期间，摄入的尼古丁迅速减少，达不到大脑要求的水平而出现的。戒烟过程中，不管是否服用药物，都可能出现戒烟综合征，而且烟龄越高，戒烟时戒断综合征的表现就越明显。当吸烟者放弃吸烟后，身体便开始着手修复过程，清除长年累月吸烟留下的破坏和残余物。时间的长短就因人而异。这时，你的决心和毅力就能派上大用场了。挺过这一阶段，之后就会渐渐好起来的。
