Quit Smoking How-To

July 1, 2009 · Filed Under Quit Smoking 

The Beginning

The first thing you need to do is understand why you need to quit. Read as many anti-smoking articles as possible and talk to as many people who quitted as you can. You will be rewarded with a desire and a motivation that can move mountains and pass any obstacles. Do not think too much about this decision, with each second that passes your lungs and your entire body suffers. You will learn from other people that there is no masked secret which only those who stopped smoking know, and that the only thing that matters is personal will.

Why you should be quitting

Appreciate and note down all possible reasons:

-You will be adding a few more years to your life.

- You diminish the risks of developing a cardiovascular disease, a cancer or a stroke.

- People won’t be watching you with anger when you walk your baby’s joovy stroller while having a cigarette lid.

- You will have more energy and you will love life more.

- You will have more money which you can spend is a more useful way than buying cigarettes.

Write down everything that happens when you quit

There is no greater weapon than your own words. Your desire to quit can gather more strength and power when you note down in your journal all the reasons that turned you towards this big step. Use the journal to answer your own questions like:

How did smoking affected and influenced your life so far?

Where does you life need improvement?

How to deal with smokers in your home and at the office?

What do you like about smoking?

What are the things you hate about cigarettes?

Who can support you if you quit?

What would you be gaining if you quit?

Decide upon a precise quitting date

The sooner, the better. Be sure you pick a date before you have time to change your mind. Pick a period in which you know you won’t have many stressful factors to deal with. Plan a tight schedule for the first few days. the first few days are the hardest days, and people that do not have many things to do should find some or think of a time when they are very busy.

During the first days, some persons prefer being overloaded and doing every minute something else. Others prefer sleeping. What to do during these few days is a thing we decide alone. If this means that you will sleep for two days, then that’s as good as anything. These few days you will experience sever addiction symptoms, but they will pass. It’s only part of the long process you need to go through if you want to return to living a normal life. You can quit smoking in the end, and you will learn to love the person you’ll become without the addiction chains to surround you.
