How to Quit Smoking - Getting the Support You Need

 

It is wrong to think that it is a sign of weakness to get help and support when you attempt to quit smoking. Nicotine is addictive so your will alone may not be sufficient to cope with cravings. The more support you get the more likely you are to succeed. It will give you the motivation boost that you need the most when you have to cope with cravings. It will help you stay on track even if you are under a lot of stress and need to get relief by smoking a cigarette.

Getting support from family and friends is crucial when you attempt to quit smoking. Tell them that you are serious about quitting in advance of your set date for starting the process. Explain to them that the addiction is difficult to overcome and that you may be jittery, irritable and in bad mood for a couple of days or weeks and that this is something normal. Admit that you will need their encouragement. You will see that they will be extremely helpful and supportive.

Tell your coworkers that you plan to quit smoking for good. They will certainly be more than willing to help you achieve your goal. It is nice to have someone to talk to when you are under pressure and feel like lighting up a cigarette. You can readily join a group of non-smokers at the office and hang out with them during the coffee breaks instead of going to the smoking area.

Get support from someone close who has gone through the process of quitting successfully. Doctors say that this is one of the best strategies a quitter can adopt. Find a friend that knows what you are going through so that you can get the understanding and advice which you need. Besides, you will have a role model and this will make you even more determined to succeed.

Join a group of people that are trying to quit smoking just like you. You can readily find an online community or a support group in your area. You may even want to organize a group by yourself. Being part of a group of quitters will bring you a number of benefits. You will feel that you are not alone. You will get help from a bunch of people whenever you have a hard time. You will get motivated to progress as you read about other people's success. The important thing is to be an active member of the group and to share your emotions and experiences.
