I Just Heard on the Radio That Addiction Starts After 21 Days, if That’s the Case…?

Question by sharpeiluvr1127: I just heard on the radio that addiction starts after 21 days, if that’s the case…?
does it work the same way in reverse? I want to quit smoking, does that mean after 21 days I should be over my addiction?

Best answer:

Answer by Katherine W
Addiction doesn’t start after 21 days, it can start after the first try of something addictive. However, if you can do something for 21 days, you’re more likely to stick with it, whether that is overcoming a bad habit or establishing a good one. There’s a book on this, called Cybernetics, by a Dr. Maxwell, that you should try reading, it’s pretty good.

Answer by rebekah o
I don’t think so I think it is easier to get addicted to cigarettes than to get off them. there are so many triggers. you just need alot of willpower and always remember why you want to quit in the forst place…and maybe a patch or some gum or a prescription GOOD LUCK
