One of the hardest parts about quitting smoking is identifying what causes you to want to smoke cigarettes. For most smokers, there are a wide variety of things that make you want to smoke. Below are some examples of these causes and how to deal with them. You should make a list of the reasons why you smoke. More on this at the end of the article.
Many smokers light up first thing in the morning. While you were sleeping, nicotine levels were dropping in your body and need to be replenished. Some wait until after breakfast, but the end effect is the same. This is also one of the most remembered cigarettes of the day.
Right after eating, you also generally want a cigarette. While the non-smokers are happy and full from their meal, you still have that little nicotine monster to feed, so you run outside and light up.
Stress from work also causes smokers to want a cigarette. Smoking gives you a break from the stresses of work, so you can be outside and enjoy the peace and quiet.
Leaving work, most smokers light up in their cars. It's been a stressful day, and you need to unwind.
Think about your average day, and what triggers you to light up. It helps to make a list of these things, so you can refer to it later. Each week, avoid smoking as a result of one of those triggers, and over time you will completely quit smoking for good!
