With smoking, nicotine enters the body and triggers the secretion of dopamine from the brain automatically. Therefore, smoking causes the artificial increase of dopamine levels in the body, thus, the brain reduces the natural secretion of dopamine gradually\u00a0and becomes fully dependent on nicotine for its artificial secretion. As a result dopamine is only secreted when smoking, hence, the feeling of joy and euphoria are only present when one smokes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica; font-size: 14pt;\">This explains the reason why when smoking is stopped we feel spiritless, pessimistic and sad.This dangerous game between dopamine and nicotine is a continuous cycle that needs to be stopped and the brain re-trained to produce dopamine naturally once again.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Does_Acupuncture_Work\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 18pt;\">How Does Acupuncture Work?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica; font-size: 14pt;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.satory.gr\/en\/smoking-cessation\/\">Acupuncture<\/a> helps us quit smoking in various ways.
