Why smokers can't quit smoking, and what is the first step to help you stop

in #health7 years ago

So yesterday I was reading my physiology book and I found something interesting about smoking . I am guessing that people who read this article are mostly smokers, so i need you to ask yourself to try remembering your first cigarette. I remember my first experience, and it was horible. The pain in my lungs, terible cough, feeling sick that all was part of my first cigarette. But for some stupid reason you and me continued with this bad habit and our body was trying desperately to cope with this huge amount of poison that was pouring in. Believe me 100% of cigarette ingridients are all poison,there is nothing relaxing with it. After a while our body basically said wait a minute, this is repeating every now and then, no matter what i do, i need to mask it, so what happend next? Every time we lit a cigarette, our body releases huge amount of feel good chemicals called endorphines, they mask the pain and make us more relaxed. After months of practicing smoking cigarette basicaly becomes the triger , better say only switch for endorphine rush in our body, and everybody around you can get small amount of endorphine from daily things, but not you. Is it not silly that we pay every day for something that is in our body? One more reason why stoping this awful habit is so hard. Nicotine life time in our body is aproximately 6 hours, when nicotine is all gone you fell anxiety in your chest,headache, heart is acting weird so what do you need ? Yup you are right, you need endorphines and so the cycle repeats itself , and that is why when smokers wake up they only think about their precious little stick. One advice and first step you do, dont stop smoking in the evening , leave one cigarette and go to sleep, when you wake up the first thing you should do is to smoke it. Now when withdrawal effects kick in you will not be of guard like in morning , the withdrawal effects will come in time of your full concetration and you will be aware of health hazards that cigarette brings with itself.
