The experts claim that it takes the average person seven times to quit for good! They also compare quitting smoking to that of stopping a heroin addiction. That's just how powerful nicotine is! You hear of people with emphysema and on their last breathe still smoking. You hear of people suffering a heart atttack starting up smoking again. WOW, if that isn't a powerful drug! I smoked for 22 years, 2 packages a day and I never in my wildest dreams ever thought that I would be able to give up my best friend. My best friend went everywhere I went and he was through all of the good and bad times with me. Always at my side he was! As I look back now, in retrospect, I can see what it was that finally allowed me to break free for good. I was trying too darn hard to quit! When I quit this last time, over 5 years ago, I kept myself as busy as I could be and I kept my mind on other things rather than thinking about my quit! I quess thinking about not smoking so much paved the way for me to have relapse after relapse. ==================================================================== It widely accepted that people who quit smoking live longer than those who continue to smoke! The risk of death for ex-smokers returns to nearly the level of those people who have never smoked after 15 years of non-smoking. Men who quit smoking between age 35 and 39 add an average of 5 years to their lives. Women add 3 years. Even people who quit at age 65 increase their expectancy by l year. Women who stop smoking before pregnancy or early in pregnancy reduce their risk of having a low birth-weight baby and experiencing other problems in pregnancy. After 1 year off cigarettes, the excess risk of heart disease caused by smoking is reduced by half. After 15 years of abstinence, the risk is similar to that of persons who have never smoked. After 10 years of abstinence former smokers have about half the risk of dying from lung cancer as continuing smokers. Even persons who have developed smoking-related diseases can benefit from quitting. For example, among smokers who have had a heart attack, quitting smoking reduces the risk of recurrence or premature death by 50% or more compared to continuing smokers. The message is very clear. To reduce risks to health, the sooner a smoker quits, the better. But it?s never too late to quit. Older people who have been smoking for many years also benefit immensely from quitting. ==================================================================== Take care and have a great week!
