Studies have shown that tobacco can be harder to quit than heroin or cocaine.
Tobacco addiction often flies under the radar in the shadow of alcohol and drug dependencies, but it’s a significant hurdle in the recovery journey. In this enlightening episode of the Dawn Farm Addiction and Recovery Education Series, Anna Byberg, LMSW, CAADC, along with a panel of former tobacco users, tackles the overlooked issue of tobacco use among individuals battling other addictions. Despite the drop in general tobacco use, it's still rampant among those with substance use disorders.
The old belief that tobacco shouldn't be addressed during addiction treatment has been debunked. Studies show that quitting smoking can actually boost recovery and reduce relapse rates. Byberg dives into these findings and highlights the importance of tackling tobacco addiction head-on. The episode also features heartfelt stories from ex-smokers who share their struggles and successes in quitting. They reveal how swapping cigarettes for healthier habits, like drinking water or taking a walk, made a world of difference.
This episode is packed with practical tips and real-life experiences that can inspire anyone looking to quit smoking while on their recovery journey. If you're ready to break free from tobacco and enhance your overall health, this episode is a must-listen.
