There are many reasons you might have decided to quit smoking but the
fact remains that you have a difficult job ahead of you. When stopping
smoking, you will understand why nicotine is known as the one of the
world's most addictive substances, and it won't always be easy to
avoid temptation. However, you have made the decision to quit and that
is a huge piece of the hardest part right there. Stopping smoking can
be one of the best decisions you ever made about your health, and
while it can be difficult, it is by no means impossible.
One of the first things you need to know about stopping smoking is
that just because a method works for someone else, it won't
necessarily work for you. Everyone is different and just like everyone
has a different reason for starting to smoke, everyone has a different
reason for stopping. There are many reasons you might be addicted to
cigarettes and it is important to identify them in order to find out
what the best method to quitting might be.
Hopefully you will make the decision to quit smoking at some point
BEFORE you are in your doctor's office and he is telling you that it
is literally a matter of life or death for you to quit smoking.
A chemical dependence is probably one of the main reasons you miss
cigarettes and if this is the only problem, it is still a large one,
but it can be solved in several ways. Some people use a nicotine patch
or nicotine gum to get rid of the cravings and for some people this is
all they need.
One thing that you can do is identify what gaps the smoking filled for
you. Were you mostly a social smoker? If this is the case, you might
want to hang out with people in places where smoking isn't allowed;
don't allow yourself the temptation of hanging out with your friends
while they are on smoking breaks. Do you mostly miss something to play
with in your hands? Many smokers fidget with their cigarettes and you
might want to leave small objects in your pockets to play with.
Sometimes, stopping smoking can be made more difficult by the fact
that you have a psychological dependence on it. In this case, some
people seek therapy to help the kick the habit, while others turn to
motivational tapes. Some people find success by listening to tapes
with subliminal messages to stop working, while the tapes just don't
seem to work on others.
Stopping smoking can be extraordinarily difficult, but it is important
to remember that it completely possible. Think about how much better
you'll feel when you're no longer dependent on nicotine and how much
healthier you'll be, as well as all the money you will be saving by
not buying cigarettes. All you need to do is to find the method that
works best for you! If one method does not work for you, don't give up
because you are sure to find a method that WILL work for you, as long
as you are mentally committed to quit
smoking.
