Weaning is the process of progressively going without a drug or any other substance consumed in an extreme way. For the smoker, weaning consists in completely giving up tobacco, be it in the form of cigarettes, cigars or the pipe. The weaning is a painful period during which medical and psychological support may need to be considered. The weaning from tobacco is important because it will lead to completely stopping cigarette consumption so as to avoid pathological complications for the subject.
The European HELP programme for fighting against tobacco can bring you a lot of information and support for giving up smoking.
