One option: That is one option. Acupuncture is an option for addiction. 12 step programs are an excellent resource for many types of addictions. Somes professional mental health care is also important.

Worth a try.: Hypnosis is by definition a heightened state of focus and concentration. There are various techniques for using hypnotic methods to explore and transform distracting thoughts. Addiction can be a complicated set of interdependent triggers, so hypnosis may be one tool in a more comprehensive program of recovery. Good luck!
