Can Fam Physician. 1976 Apr;22:63-5.
The social acceptance of tobacco prevents recognition of the fact that most regular smokers are addicted to nicotine. We have no facilities for dealing with this problem and there are no specific treatments; but group techniques may help some smokers to quit. Education and research may eventually provide solutions; but to date they have not been effective. Realistic expectations and acceptance of his limitations will permit the family physician to save time and energy when he is confronted by a persistent smoker.
社会对烟草的认可阻碍了人们认识到这样一个事实，即大多数经常吸烟的人都对尼古丁上瘾。我们没有处理这个问题的设施，也没有专门的治疗方法；但群体技术可能会帮助一些吸烟者戒烟。教育和研究最终可能会提供解决方案；但到目前为止，它们还没有效果。当家庭医生面对一个顽固的吸烟者时，现实的期望和对其局限性的接受将使他能够节省时间和精力。
