It’s not that smokers don’t want to quit, because if you ask a smoker the question if they had to do it all over again would they still smoke, almost all of them would say no.

So if smokers wish they could stop smoking, then why don’t they quit. Most smokers try to quit a few times in there lives, but it is the most addicting drug out there. 25% of the regular users become addicted, and I have seen more people becoming slaves to cigarettes than any other drug out there. Just because it is hard to quit does not mean that it doesn’t happen. In fact, more people quit smoking effectively now than ever before. If you are a smoker and you are thinking of quitting, then there is no better time than now..

Many people would be able to quit cigarettes if there was not so much stress in their lives. Stress plays a big role in someone’s ability to stop smoking. Cigarettes are stress relievers that help your body and mind cope with distressing situations. People that have stressful jobs usually begin smoking as a way to help them stop. Smokers that are trying to quit should quit at a time when stress is at a minimum, like on vacation.

There are some people out there that are able to quit for months at a time consistently but are sucked back into the smoking vortex whenever they are faced with a stressful situation and cannot handle it themselves. These kind of smokers need to find another way to deal with stress besides smoking, or else they will never be able to quit forever.

Since there are many different types of people, and different types of smokers, before someone quits, they should look at what causes them to pick up a cigarette. Understanding what makes them smoke can help them stay away from those situations.

Once a person stops smoking, they will start to have withdrawl symptoms. Nicotine withdrawl causes a person to me mad at everybody and everything that comes in there way. A person that is trying to quit will often freak out for no reason, or will look mad all day long. When someone tries to quit smoking, it is best to not to try to argue or disagree with them until they are done with withdrawls.

Some people are so mad and crazy that they get fired or they quit their jobs. Others may find it hard to get out of bed and feel like there is no reason to live or to do anything. It can be hard to quit smoking, especially if you are having heavy withdrawl symptoms, but the good news is that it is usually over in 3-10 days.

The best part about quitting smoking is how it feels when you are finally done. After just a few week of being cigarette free, most people feel so great that their energy levels are almost double that of when they are smoking. They can breathe and sleep better, and that causes them to have more endurance and to feel better at work. Even if you have been smoking your whole life, after 10 years of quitting, your chances of getting a disease are back to the same as a person who never smoked. Who would have thought that something so bad for you could be ended and reversed?
