Health Quit Smoking Tips
So you want to quit smoking? Good for you. As a person who choked down "lung darts" for more than fifteen years, I think I may know something about the act of smoking cigarettes. I walked away from smoking forever about a year ago and wanted to share how I did it, in the hopes that the information might help someone else. I know that you don't really want to out of breath from walking up a flight of stairs or god forbid have to run even a short distance. I also know that you don't like the stink that follows you around after smoking a cigarette. I know all of these things and hopefully some of these tips can help you walk away forever, just like I did.
The other beautiful thing about my experience is that I'm sharing it with you and in no way trying to sell you something to "help" you quit. I don't represent any product or company that claims to "help" with quitting smoking. I realized, through my own experience, that none of the "help" is necessary anyway. Here's my theory: no one helped me start smoking, so why do I need someone to help me stop? The bottom line is that you were born with absolutely everything you need to stop smoking.
The biggest hurdle that I had to overcome was this: What I thought about quitting smoking. Now that I've actually accomplished quitting I realize that quitting was more about what I thought, than anything else. I came to the realization that everything that a person sees and hears when they are quitting is how difficult it's going to be. How nicotine is harder to quit than heroine, and stuff like that. I simply decided not to buy into all of this hype.
I realized that most of the hype was coming from companies trying to sell me something. Sure, they claimed the stuff they were selling would help me, but the bottom line was that they were trying to sell me something. As I said, I simply stopped buying into all of the hype. I began telling myself how simple and easy quitting was going to be. I also started hanging out where people smoked less. I would even go so far as to look at a cigarette while I was smoking it, and say to it (in my mind) "I've got this; stopping isn't going to be hard". The process of me smoking went on for about six more months, when one day I looked in my pack and there was only 1 cigarette left.
I pulled out that cigarette, looked at it, and said, "This is the last one". I smoked it and that was it. I haven't had another cigarette since. It was simple. There was nothing hard about it. Were there times that I wanted a cigarette? Of course, but I simply didn't do it. Quitting smoking doesn't have to be difficult. Remember: Quitting smoking is as difficult as you think it will be, that's all there is to it.
