First we want to congratulate you, to reading this lines, because it's a big step to becoming Tobacco free life..
Many peoples don't quite smoking because they think its very hard and they can't do that, and it's true for most people quitting smoking is not very easy, because the nicotine in cigarettes is a powerfully addictive drug. But with positive thinking, confidence and right approach you can overcome the craving.
Step to becoming a smoke free life
- Write down the a list of reason why you want to stop
Get some facts. Look up smoking
on the internet and find out the history behind it, and what happens to smokers
later on in life. You'll learn about the profit motives behind the industry as
well as some medically gruesome reasons to quit.
Also get the facts about any
quit-smoking product or technique you're considering, as research shows that
some are more effective than others. Your local consumer or community health
organization might have comparison charts for you to check out
- Set a date to quite smoking
Some people prefer the idea of cutting down gradually. However, research has shown that if you smoke fewer cigarettes than usual, you are likely to smoke more of each cigarette, and nicotine levels remain nearly the same. Therefore, it is usually best to stop once and for all from a set date.
- Tell yours friends and family members that your are giving up smoking
People are more likely to succeed at quitting when friends and family help. If you don't want to tell your family that you smoke, ask friends to help you quit. Consider confiding in a counselor or other adult you trust. If it's hard to find people who support you (like if your friends smoke and aren't interested in quitting), join an online or in-person support group
If you feel like you're going to give in to your tobacco craving, tell yourself that you must first wait 10 more minutes and then do something to distract yourself for that period of time. This simple trick may be enough to derail your tobacco craving. Repeat as often as needed
- Be positive and confident that you can successfully quit
You can tell people that you don't smoke. You will smell better. After a few weeks you should feel better, taste your food more, and cough less. You will have more money. Perhaps put away the money, which you would have spent on cigarettes, for treat
- Find a medication or a doctor to help you quit smoking.
If you are a chain smoker then maybe you need Nicotine replacement therapy. Nicotine patches release a steady stream of nicotine into your bloodstream through your skin, and nicotine gum delivers nicotine through the lining in your mouth. Other forms of nicotine replacement therapy include nicotine sprays and inhalers that also work by delivering nicotine to your body. Alternatively, ask your doctor about prescription medications to help you quit
- If you fail just start again and again
Just Think You haven’t failed. Some people have to quit as many as eight times before they are successful.
