Hello!
Usually when an addiction forms, it's because one is trying to fill a void.
Medication will surely help but along with medication you need to also go in for therapy. A Psychotherapist/ Hypnotherapist/ NLP Practitioner can help you with addiction in the most effective manner as they will help you work on the issues underlying addiction as well.
Hope you find the help you need.

Hello,
Yes you can use nicotex gum 2 mg on your requirement basis which are easily available over the counter. There are no fix number of nicotex gums to be taken you can take as much as required on day one. Remember to decrease one per day. Chew gum slowly until a peppery taste or tingling of the gums occurs. Then, stop chewing and park the gum in between the gums and cheek until tingling stops. Start chewing gum again and repeat the parking and chewing process for about 30 minutes. Maximum 1 gum to be used per hour. Read or discuss more about nicotex gum. You can slowly decrease and stop it. There are other treatment options available as well which can be taken longer and have the advantage of less relapse rate. You can consult for any further help required.
Next Steps
Consult nearby psychiatrist or you can consult me.
