A member asked:
I'm wondering why are people addicted to smoking?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Oral Fixation: It could be a few things. Perhaps some have an addictive personality. A classic view of this addiction specifically would be that this person has an oral fixation. This means that this person has a need to put something in the mouth that is satisfying. The emotional equivalent would be giving this person a lot of positive feedback and emotional support, verbally.
