All addictions have 3 stages that prevent them from quitting.
1-Chemistry
Your brain will send signals that you can't avoid, but can withstand. It will last from 3 to 7 days.
At this stage you will feel bad, physical pains, you will feel that you have diseases, that everything bothers you much more than before, you will be irritable, weak and you will be persuaded by anything. I recommend confinement.
2- The usual.
This stage will last a lifetime, but you can get it under control in a few months.
You should avoid all circuits where the practice takes place. It includes social gatherings with friends and family.
The habit of doing what everyone else does will go away over time until you can say no.
3- Find your click
There is a click, a signal, something that makes your brain react by looking for that addiction. Find that reason, understand it, acknowledge it, and overcome it.
Successes on your way to freedom.
