*** Do Not Quit Smoking! Click Here *** What is smoking cessation you may wonder. Well, put quite simply, it is stopping smoking. What is your biggest fear about stopping smoking, well maybe I will answer that question for you, as I am a ex-smoker I am more than qualified to say the biggest barrier, cause, problem or whatever you may call it is fear! Let me repeat. The biggest obstacle to smoking cessation is the "fear of stopping" the fear factor, that's it! Now let me tell you how you will know, so you can prove it to yourself. If you answer more than half of these questions with a yes, you will understand and in fact believe that it is the fear of stopping which is holding you back from smoking cessation. So let's go... (Question)
Do you have a cigarette with your first Coffee or Tea of the morning, and do you say to yourself, I needed that or that was great, meaning the cigarette? Yes / No (Question)
If you drive to work alone, do you smoke while sitting in traffic to keep you calm? Yes / No Do you look forward to smoking after you have a meal? Yes / No (Question)
Do you enjoy smoking after having sex?(That's if you have sex) Yes / No (Question)
Do you always smoke while you are out socializing? Yes / No (Question)
Do you like smoking late in the evening while watching TV? Yes / No (Question)
Do you reach for the pack of cigarettes when you are under pressure or feeling stressed? Yes / No (Question)
Last thing at night before you go to bed, and you discover that the cigarette pack is empty, do you go to the 24 hour store to get cigarettes for the morning? Yes / No (Question)
That's enough questions for the minute, What this shows you clearly is that you fear that if you stop smoking, you will no longer Enjoy a cup of Tea or coffee, Be able to drive to work without freaking out, Enjoy a meal Enjoy Sex again, Enjoy Socializing, Enjoy watching Tv, Be able to de-stress, Go to bed and sleep without cigarettes in the house. Of course this fear is an irrational fear, and all those activities above become more enjoyable for the average smoker after smoking cessation. When you finally see through all the smoke (pardon the pun) that is, the irrational fear. You may experience some changes in your body as it detoxifies itself. Theses can affect you in several ways. You can become irritable. You can put on some extra weight. You can experience rashes on your body, You can get some aches and pains, But do not worry this is your body getting itself in order, detoxifying itself.
