But soon enough things start slipping out of our control and before we know it we just can't do with out our daily dose of nicotine in whatever proportions we demand it. The biggest hurdle to quitting smoking lies in the addictive nature of nicotine, period. After all the information that is out there, it is hard to believe that there are many people who still don't realize this. These people puff away on their cigarettes and continue to make an endless stream of excuses for their habit. Here are 3 of the most popular false benefits that people attach to their habit of smoking. PERCIEVED BENEFIT #1 - It relieves stress It really doesn't. Your body and mind are capable of handling a lot of stress and you do not need any alkaloid to lend external support. The fact is that once your brain is addicted to nicotine, it kind of weakens and becomes unable to handle problems. The result is that you get stressed up very fast and your brain starts demanding its doze of nicotine. When you puff away, you give it the nicotine and you feel as if your stress is relieved. PERCIEVED BENEFIT #2 - It keeps me awake/helps me sleep Sleep is a natural response of the body. Our body needs rest and it has the right to demand this rest from time to time. When you take a puff, the alkaloids go straight to your brain and interfere with the working thus confusing the brain. You might be able to ward off sleep but you are in fact interfering with the functioning of your brain, which is indeed playing with fire. PERCIEVED BENEFIT #3 - It perks me up Maybe, but isn't that a kind of external perk? Isn't that another way of saying, "I am unable to keep in high spirits by myself so I need to depend on cigarettes"? Hey, look at all those little children, they are always in the highest of spirits and they do not need any alkaloids for that. You should lessen the burdens on your shoulders and take life as it comes. Most people wrongly think that it is only narcotic drugs that are addictive. This is a very wrong notion indeed. It has been proven time and time again that nicotine is as addictive as any narcotic. Once your body and brain get used to it, it is not going to be easy to break away from its grasp. So learn how to stop smoking today and don't buy into any of the myths above. They'll only lead you down a path of destruction. |
