What we should know about addiction and smoking

[matt1988]

If people really understood what it was to be addicted to the habit of smoking, it would go a long way to helping our cause.

Special Advisor to ECCA, Dr David Upton, has written a piece on Addiction which covers this perfectly. Much has been said about the impact of positive reinforcement that smokers go through, speculation about the importance or not of nicotine. There are articles spread far and wide about what it is to be a smoker.

We are pleased to have this work among our arsenal and we ask that you both read and share it. It would be the perfect document to give to your MP or MEP or just to quote from in talking to those that think the answer to getting away from tobacco is to 'just quit'
