In fact nicotine is not main reason why
you are addicted to smoking habit. The tobacco companies and even
health care industry want you to believe that this is true but there is
another component in patent protected list of thousands of chemicals
inside every cigarette that actually is responsible for addiction. And
unless correct countermeasures are taken against this ingredient all
attempts to quit smoking are ten times more difficult which results in
higher rate of failure for those who are trying.
This is quite
beneficial for both tobacco companies and health care industry because
high fail rate in trying to get out of addiction leaves more customers
for both as they get through endless cycles of addictive smoking and
attempts of curing this unhealthy habit. And curing programs that
require taking medicine for several months like swallowing Zyban pills
or chewing nicorettes are nearly doubling monthly expenses of a smoker.
The
best way to quit smoking is to find out what exactly is responsible for
addiction and how to get rid of it as well as opening eyes to how
marketing companies are trying to promote false information to ensure
that most smokers never quit. Also planning out exactly when that last
cigarette will be smoked and exact plan of actions how to replace that
urge for another smoke and sticking to this plan will ensure success.
This
isn't as easy as it sounds because just reading few facts and
especially finding that will power to follow plan of actions isn't
going to work if not done correctly. Trick here is to overcome years of
being programmed by advertising of smoking as cool way of life and
disregarding most of discouragements about health problems as low risk
issues which is hardest part because planning how to replace current
habits that involve smoking might require just imagining ahead what
alternative action can be done instead of having a smoke like drinking
water, chewing some gum and etc.
There are several methods that
try to clear up mind from false information and help to get rid of bad
daily habits that involve smoking and I have tried many of them
including ones with hypnosis and neural-linguistic programming but only
one was solid and complete in all aspects with long term affects that
did help me overcome 30 years of non-stop smoking 2-3 packs per day.
