If you a heavy smoker, you've probably thought about stopping. Kicking the habit can be a challenge. After all, the nicotine that cigarettes contain is a potently addictive drug. But with the proper approach, you will achieve the positive results. PUT IT IN WRITING. People who wish to make a considerable change ordinarily are far more successful when they put it in writing. So, write down all the reasons why you want to quit smoking, such as the money you will save or the stamina you'll gain for doing sports. Have this list on hand and look at it when you feel like lighting a cigarette. GETTING MORAL SUPPORT. Smokers whose friends and family help them quit smoking are much more likely to succeed. If you are reluctant to tell your parents or family that you are a smoker, ensure your friends know, and ask them for help. And if you can hardly find anybody you can confide in (if, say, all your friends smoke and none of them is interested in quitting), you might consider joining a support group, either personally or online. Set up a quit date. Pick out a day when you'll stop smoking. Inform your friends (and your family, if they know about the habit) that you're going to stop smoking on that day. Consider that day a dividing line between the smoking you and the new and improved nonsmoker you'll become. Mark it on your calendar. Get rid of your cigarettes — all of your cigarettes. People cannot stop smoking with cigarettes still around to tempt them. Even toss out that emergency pack you have stashed in the secret place. THINK ABOUT YOUR TRIGGERS You probably know when you feel the desire to smoke, such as after meals, when you're at your best friend's apartment, when drinking coffee, or driving. These situations are your triggers for smoking — when you're in them, it feels automatic to have a cigarette. As soon as you've figured out your triggers, try the following tips: - Avoid these situations. For instance, if you smoke when driving, get a lift to work, have a walk, or take the bus for a couple of weeks. If you ordinarily smoke after meals, make it a point to do something else after you have had a meal, such as read or phone a friend. Remember that even one puff of a cigarette can cause a relapse. If you begin smoking again, do not feel like a failure. Set up a new quit date. Keep on trying. |
