Why Quitting is so Hard?

Quitting smoking is hard. Like I said on my previous post, nicotine is addictive. When you stop ingesting it, your body "bothers" you with cravings because it think it needs it for his own good. that's because your body has been deceived, it thinks that the pleasure is equal to good.

Once you stop smoking, it takes a little time for your blood and brain chemistry to "clean up". this takes around three weeks and can be a hard period to overcome. The body hangs on that need.

once you get past this state, the seocnd phase kicks in. It is time to overcome the "mental addiction". this leads ot problems such as smoking out of habit, because of emotions and such. for this period you have to remain vigilant of your actions. this usally lasts 90 days.

As oyu see these 2 obstacles make quitting smoking hard, but there are aids like tapes that reduce the time considerably, often in less than a month like "Quit Smoking today"
