Quit Smoking Cold Turkey Withdrawal Symptoms
Author: Pei Zhongxiu
Recently, more and more smoking rooms appear in public places. Railway stations, for example. There are "NO SMOKING" signs everywhere. According to a survey, the number of people dying of smoking reaches 2,500,000 every year around the world. Smoke is the first human murderer. Smoking has caused attention to many people. Then why are cigarettes still attracted to so many people? How can people managed to stop being a nicotine addict?
Firstly, with our society developing at an amazingly fast speed, people are under great pressure. As a result, people pursue cigarettes as a way to release their burden. Secondly, some people including the students think it cool to smoke. Smoking makes them feel excited. Besides, they feel they would become energetic after smoking. Some people also regard it as a way to attract the opposite sex. Thirdly, some people become addicted to smoking by imitating other people, especially the children. It's reported that nearly 80% people tend to smoke if his or her mother or father is a smoker.
The above are some reasons why people smoke. As we know, smoking can make the human feel headache and tired. It makes working efficiency drop and it causes many kinds of diseases. What's worse, second-hand smoke hurt the health of the family deadly as well the people around. In that way, how could we get rid of smoking successfully?
In my opinion, the key point is that smokers must have the desire from their deep hearts to quit smoking. Nothing is impossible as long as you put your mind into it. What's more, find motivations for them so that smokers are able to convince themselves of quitting smoking. In addition, try to make themselves focus on other things such as playing computer games and candy when they want to smoke .At last, the most effective way to quit smoking I think is to go see a doctor and using some medicine plus your determination to get rid of cigarettes.
It's a long and rough journey to quit smoking. However, smoking brings lot damages to smokers' own health and their family. It does also bring pollution to our living environment. Besides, smoking costs quite a lot of money, with which we can do a lot beneficial and meaningful things to the people who need it. Thus, you can keep a healthy body and gain a share of happiness from it. So we should stop smoking and form good habits so that we can spend our time learning useful and valuable things for our motherland and people, bringing contributions to our world. I highly recommend you quit smoking expert.

I quit smoking cigarettes cold turkey 3 years ago why can’t other smokers do it?
I just can’t believe that people are so weak that they let a cigarette rule their life.; I smoked for 18 years and just quit and it was over.
Compassion????
Listen up…I lost my Father to Lung Cancer from smoking so I quit cold Turkey. Compassion??
Kick the habit thats my compassion
One more thing. I did gain 35 pounds and eventually lost it. I weigh 200 lbs and stand 6ft tall now after losing that horrible 35 donut gain.
I’m glad that you had the willpower to make such a change. Congratulations! I know your health will be better because of it.
Now for the butt-chewing…
Why did you start smoking? to be cool?- WEAK!!
You smoked for how long??- WEAK!!
How many times did you try to quit?- Most “quiters” try 4 or 5 times before they succeed- If you’re anywhere near normal- WEAK!!!
And here’s the kicker- Where’s your compassion? It takes a pretty big person to step out of themselves….
My husband smoked when we met. I’m allergic to some of the chemicals in cigarettes- (he had to stand downwind from me or I’d get the mother of all migranes!!!) He quit befoer we married, and I know it was hard for him. We’ve been married for almost 7 yrs.
I have never had a habit that needed to be kicked- like cigarettes, Rx meds, pot, alcohol, etc. I don’t know what it’s like to truely crave something… (besides chocolate). I am VERY aware that cigarettes can have a hold on a person, a hold I’ve never experienced. I try to be encouraging and compassionate to others when it comes to situations I’ve never been in. This “stepping outside onesself” takes a lot more effort and maturity than simply being egocentric and judgmental.
… edit…
Sooooo… You lost your father to this habit, learned from it, and quit smoking… again, you’re smarter than most, probably have more willpower than most… you may have a higher resitance to addiction…. don’t act so superior, just because you are… it’s even more unattractive than a cigarette in your hand.

I want to quit smoking cigarettes cold turkey…is this possible?
It’s possible. One idea is not to count how many days it’s been…I mean if you really want to quit what are you counting for?
I did it 9 years ago (approx since I didn’t count exactly).
Exercise helps too…gives additional reason not to smoke.

No. It will settle back down into your already diseased lungs.
