Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Kheni is just like any other tobacco products. It contains nicotine and nicotine is highly addictive substance. So as in the case of other nicotine deaddiction programs, certain medication and therapies are available for you.In any case, strong will power is the ultimate base for any deaddiction treatment. You don't have to worry. Strong will is within you. You can definitely stop. just take a pledge that you will never restart the habit and stick to it. Have lot of liquids, fruit juices, spinach etc to enhance the removal of nicotin toxins from your body.

You have to continue all these even if you opt for de-addiction therapy. Hope you understand. You might need counseling and psychotherapy. please visit http://psychocure.webs.com.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
