Smoking is harmful. This is a well-known and indisputable fact, however, when a smoker is asked why he smokes, the most common answer is “Used to ...” or “Helps to relax ...”. Here one of the main problems of smokers is hidden - psychological dependence.
Voluntarily become a smoker - not a single person on earth makes such a decision. All of us most often out of idle curiosity try the first cigarette. Disgusting taste, unpleasant odor. In adolescence, a cigarette in the mouth is fashionable, in an adult way. So we light a second, third, and do not notice how we become addicted to smoking. The saddest thing is that quitting smoking once and for all is not as easy as starting. However, this does not mean that until the end of life, you should continue to inhale the pungent smoke of cigarettes and fill your lungs with tar.
How can I quit smoking? Trying to quit smoking is futile. You can try to do this dozens of times and still nothing will work out for you. You just need to quit smoking. Do not try to stop being a smoker, but simply stop smoking. Stop smoking once and for all. Forget about cigarettes and ignore them, as if they were never in your life.
It may sound too trite. But how many people know that smoking makes a person addicted to nicotine, and very weak. So weak that you can cope with it even without the help of narcologists or special drugs. Do not believe the stories of those who already tried to quit smoking once and for all and they did not succeed. They will tell you about physical ailment, increased irritability, or how you quit smoking and gained weight. It is not true. No smokers have any side effects. They can occur only in those who TRY TO quit smoking, thereby subconsciously setting themselves up that he will not succeed, and he will light up again.
Each person can overcome certain physical barriers. However, psychological barriers are not comparable with any of them. The smoker sets them for himself and then cannot overcome them. Smoking becomes a part of human existence, but not one of them recognizes this. Although few smokers are aware of why he smokes.
Before you stop smoking, dig in yourself. Find all the objective arguments for smoking. For example, if cigarettes help you relax, resist stress, then find alternative ways. Believe me, this is not at all difficult. The sounds of your favorite music in the player, an exciting electronic game or an interesting book can easily replace a five-minute smoke break. Take out smoking from your life. When all the events that prompted you to smoke, you can transfer without a cigarette in your mouth, think about why smoking is needed. The psychological barrier will be removed.
Do not choose the day you stop smoking. For many, this is tomorrow, Monday, from next week. Stop smoking right now. If you understand the whole pointlessness of smoking, then you have no reason to waste time with addiction.
Sit back on a chair, close your eyes, stop thinking and relax. Sit in this position for a couple of minutes and listen to yourself - smoking is useless for you, you can easily give up cigarettes. When you realize this, the result will be achieved.
Quitting smoking once and for all is up to you. After all, you have freed yourself from psychological barriers. Cigarettes left your life naturally, without any violence against yourself - this is the key.
In just a few days, the world will change for you for the better. The air will become cleaner, the grass will be greener, the sun will be brighter. Life becomes richer and more pleasant without gray tobacco smoke.
