How to Quit Smoking Cigarettes by Overcoming One Aspect at a Time
If you are a smoker, there will be many times you will think of quitting smoking and kick the habit for
good. If you’ve ever tried to quit, you know how tough it can be to overcome the addiction and the
cravings. The mere thought having to go through the agitation of withdrawal symptoms can make any
smoker anxious.
Although tough, it is a highly possible thing to do to quit smoking as thousands have kicked the habit
forever every year. These smokers have quit smoking and overcame the challenges one aspect at a time.
Renew Your Mindset
Most, if not all smokers who have tried to quit would have agreed that the test is more of overcoming a
psychological challenge rather than a physical one. Because humans are creatures of habit, smokers
have also shaped and molded habits of smoking in their daily routines. Thus, the longer a person
smokes, the more difficult it is to quit smoking.
The question is how do other smokers successfully quit smoking? Is there any proven method that one
can follow? Is there a shortcut or a trick to finally put down the cigarette forever? The key is to develop
a smoke-free habit and lifestyle.
Research has actually shown that it takes a habit 21 days to form. Thus if you can cultivate a habit to not
smoke for 21 days, you are already mostly successful to be smoke-free forever.
The Fully Ready Mentality
There are many smokers who generally have the idea or concept that when it comes to quitting is to be
mentally ready first. The problem is for someone to be mentally ready is really like waiting until the
cows come home. It’ll never happen. Smokers who are successful to quit never had the fully ready
mentality. They just went ahead and did it.
Just like yourself. Chances are you will never be fully ready to quit smoking. No matter how prepared
you are, there will always be a jumble of emotions such as stress, anxiety, fear, uncertainty, hammering
and frustration. But bear in mind that all these emotions are controllable and manageable if you have
the right attitude to it.
Educating yourself on Quitting Smoking
Before you embark on this journey, it is important to know what to expect.
For example, do you know what to expect when your body is experiencing withdrawal symptoms? Do
you know what happens to your body after you are free from smoking and how you use that to your
advantage? What about how to handle the psychological challenge?
The more knowledgeable you are about what to expect when you are quitting, the more you can plan
and avoid unwanted situations from striking you and thus having a higher chances to quit smoking. In
the early stages, quitting smoking may be demanding and testing, but with your preparation of
knowledge, it will help you in the long run.
Seeking Support during This Period
Sometimes, a simple encouragement from a friend can just wipe out your doubts of wanting to quit
smoking and easily win the tug of war in your mind to be smoke free. There’s nothing like people who
are supporting you. Visit other forums and seek support from your family or friends. In that way, it is
tougher to give up as you don’t want to disappoint them.
