Resumo: Smoking is a refractory behavior, despite its well-known negative effects; few quitters are successful. The smoking cessation process of 62 ex-smokers (m = 50, SD = 11) of both genders, with eight years of abstinence on average, was characterized. Most of them had already done at least three previous attempts to quit smoking, motivated by health issues, and said they no longer feel craving. Craving, stress, withdrawal symptoms and weight gain were related by them to relapse. Parties, alcohol and coffee use, loneliness and stress were considered triggers for craving. The use of cognitive and behavioral strategies for the maintenance of abstinence was highly reported by them. Identifying variables associated with prolonged nicotine abstinence may contribute to increase the effectiveness of aid to smoking, treatment adherence and remission rates of smoking.Keywords: nicotine addiction, relapse, cigarette consumption.

Caracterizou-se o processo de cessação do tabagismo de 62 ex-fumantes (m = 50 anos, dp = 11), de ambos os sexos, com oitos anos de abstinência em média. Eles responderam um questionário do comportamento de fumar retrospectivo, com 16 questões sobre histórico prévio de consumo do cigarro, processo de cessação do tabagismo e manutenção da abstinência. Os dados foram analisados através de estatística descritiva de categorias definidas. A maior parte dos participantes havia feito pelo menos três tentativas prévias para parar de fumar, motivados por questões de saúde, e referiu não sentir mais fissura. Os fatores mais relacionados à recaída foram fissura, stress, sintomas de abstinência e ganho de peso. Festas, uso de álcool e café, solidão e stress foram considerados gatilhos para fissura. Diversas estratégias cognitivas e comportamentais para a manutenção da abstinência foram utilizadas. Identificar variáveis associadas à abstinência prolongada de nicotina pode contribuir para aumentar a eficácia do auxílio ao fumante, a adesão ao tratamento e as taxas de remissão do tabagismo.Palavras-chave: dependência de nicotina, recaída, uso de cigarro.Unisinos2015-01-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.unisinos.br/index.php/contextosclinicos/article/view/ctc.2015.81.0910.4013/ctc.2015.81.09Contextos Clínicos; v. 8 n. 1 (2015): Jan-Jun; 87-981983-3482reponame:Contextos Clínicosinstname:Universidade do Vale do Rio dos Sinos (UNISINOS)instacron:Unisinosporhttps://revistas.unisinos.br/index.php/contextosclinicos/article/view/ctc.2015.81.09/4660Peuker, Ana CarolinaBizarro, Lisianeinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2015-07-06T12:42:50Zoai:ojs2.revistas.unisinos.br:article/7901Revistahttps://revistas.unisinos.br/index.php/contextosclinicosPUBhttps://revistas.unisinos.br/index.php/contextosclinicos/oaidfalcke@unisinos.br||periodicos@unisinos.br1983-34821983-3482opendoar:2015-07-06T12:42:50Contextos Clínicos - Universidade do Vale do Rio dos Sinos (UNISINOS)false
