Reasons Why Smokers Stop Smoking
We nearly all start smoking and often realize what we have done only after 10 or 20 years.
First time smokers will not smoke more that 5 cigarettes daily, and with irregularity. But as time passes, and young people grow, they start smoking more and more, and at certain times during a day.
Smoking is indeed a habit. And by this we understand an individual dependency, earned by repeating frequently the same actions or a particular way of doing something.
There are other habits we have, but we can not compare them to smoking, because smoking is a real danger to our health. Even a shallow reading of the professional literature will reveal the fact that those who smoke for more than 10 years, and they smoke a lot, at least a pack of cigarettes a day, will live less than their non-smoking colleagues who never smoked in their life. Most smokers will have cancer in the end, or will have certain heart or respiratory problems after they turn 50. Unfortunately, once these diseases installed, quitting can not be done so easily.
It is much harder to cope with dangers of smoking than to start smoking. The nicotine dependency which can show signs even after 6 months of regular smoking in young people, can cause quitting to be more difficult than expected. The nicotine contained by every cigarette we smoke is the active dependency agent. Nicotine dependency has a few symptoms: a general tiredness if you don’t smoke, the increasing need of cigarettes, the repetitive quitting tries followed by failure. Because nicotine can boost our mood and improve our intellectual performances, we tend to not want to let it go.
No matter how great the pleasure implied by a cigarette might be or the stimulant effect of smoking over intellectual activities, is it really worth risking your health? Nicotine dependency is compared to the dependency caused by drugs as heroine, so it can not be left aside. Next to nicotine we also breathe substances similar to those used to gas people to death during the second world war, so the easy way to quit smoking is a must for everyone.
