| dc.description | Nicotine acts as both stimulant and depressant to CNS. It stimulates the release of dopamine in brain which induces feelings of pleasure and, overtime, addiction. With repeated exposure of nicotine, tolerance develops to many of the effects of nicotine, reducing its primary reinforcing effects and inducing physical dependence (i.e. withdrawal symptoms in absence of nicotine) like irritability, depressed mood, restlessness and anxiety. To get relief from these withdrawal symptoms, smokers tend to show enhanced performance and heightened mood to smoke. | ru_RU |
