Quit Smoking – Discover 2 Facts to Help you Quit for Good
If you want to quit smoking you need to understand the two facts in this article and you will be on your way to quitting for good.
Smokers are both psychologically and physically dependant on smoking and you need to understand both to be able to quit smoking.
Let’s look at the relationship in greater detail.
1. Understanding Physical Dependence
The key to stopping smoking is to understand that while your conscious mind knows it’s bad for you, it also makes you more relaxed, improves mood, memory and makes you feel more alert.
The fact is smoking makes you feel better.
Smoking improves mood, memory and attention and that’s a proven fact.
Nicotine is responsible for this, as well as the addictive nature of smoking.
Nicotine affects the neuro transmitters in the brain and helps realise dopamine a chemical that gives feelings of pleasure.
While cigarette smoking is bad for you, nicotine in organic form outside of smoking is good for you.
It does not cause death or disease (that’s some of the other 4,000 chemicals consumed in cigarette smoking). Nicotine is part of the natural food chain and is present in many common foods and vegetables such as:
Potatoes, tomatoes, tea, chillis and peppers to name a few.
Consider this!
The physical addiction to cigarette smoking is provided by nicotine.
Therefore, if nicotine is good for you and you can get it outside of smoking, then you can cope with nicotine withdrawal symptoms and stop being physically dependant.
Nicotine can be obtained outside of cigarettes in a number of ways, from gum, patches, inhalers and puffers.
If you use these products your chances of giving up are doubled over simply trying to quit without getting nicotine.
As nicotine is not bad for you in organic form then there is no reason not to take it.
Today, many companies are not just looking at nicotine supplements to help people give up smoking; they are looking at marketing them to help people with various conditions such as:
Depression, Altzeimer’s and parkinsonism disease.
The first product is already out – nicotine water, which simply provides organic nicotine in water.
Originally targeted at smokers when they couldn’t, or didn’t want to smoke, it is now being taken by many non smokers for its potential health benefits.
2. Psychological dependence
Smokers have a relationship with smoking which is like a relationship with a friend.
The most crucial thing to keep in mind is that you will only stop smoking if you overcome this relationship and this is purely psychological.
You will only stop smoking if you really want to.
To stop smoking you must say goodbye to your perceived “friend” for good and want to do it.
Smoking is something you have learnt and is not part of your natural being.
You lived without it before and you can again.
Sure, you can cope with nicotine withdrawal but the psychological dependence is just as hard to break.
You can do this by visualization.
Think how much healthier you will be, how much money you will save and how the risk of death and disease will drop etc and simply be strong.
Understanding the above
The fact is physical dependence is only half the battle and as we have seen, that’s easy, once you understand that nicotine does you no harm and has health benefits you can keep taking it.
The real problem is in the mind.
If you really want to stop, that comes from within and breaking the relationship with your perceived “friend” and the fact is only you can do that.

Constant urination getting worse cold hands at certain times .. please help?
Constant urination getting worse cold hands at certain times
Hi,
I am 29 years old male.
I am not sure where to start and that is part of the problem. My delusional world is starting to clash with reality and it is leaving me in a state of constantly thinking about death, feeling perpetually trapped and fantasizing about suicide but then at the same time “knowing I would never do it”
I have had sex with around 25 girls in my life and I never wore a condom. A few of them anal. I have actively worked out throughout my life. Between the age of 15 – 28 I drank alcohol assively on the weekends and some weekdays. As an example, I used to go to raves when I was 17 buy huge bottles of ephedrine, pour them into a cooler of everclear which is pure grain alcohol and drink it until it was finished. Beyond exsevly. I smoked weed for years then quit., I took shrooms around 50 times, cocaine every weekend for a few years and I have gone summers where I did not sleep from Friday till Monday pushing my body to the brink of destruction. At 24 I started taking MDMA. When I discovered this I took it non stop every weekend for a couple of years straight. This was usually on top of cocaine, tons of hard ketamine, GHB on many occasions . This was always on top of the drinking I was able to get good jobs with my IT skillset but I never held them down. Finnaly after my second DWI I discovered adderal and at first I took it for fun then I saw how I was on it and I got prescribed it. I then read a great book called “ the easy way to quit drinking” and did just that.
A few years back I started taking proecia for hair loss and using roggain with it. A year ago I got prescribed 60mg daily of adderal XR.
Now this all may sound unreal but it is true. On top of all this I have never had a blood test and I get the adderal from one DR and the propecia from another. They have no idea about my history. Nobody really knows besides my sister, and she only knows half of it. I am freaked out of my mind to the point were I cant move when I think about going to the doctor for a blood test and waiting for the results. I always thought that the urination thing would go away over time but it got worse and worse. I often get sharp chest pains and I take pre work out supplements before the gym with upwards of 500mg of cafffeen.
I quit drinking a year ago and smoking and drugs (minus adderal, caffeine, propecia, Rogaine)
The thought of being bald makes me rather die then stop taking this shit, the thought of getting off adderal and going back to my old messy disorganized self makes me want to hide, the thought of finding out whats wrong with me an dealing with it , well.. it is impossible and writing this is the most I ever even admitted to myself. I constantly look for signs from people to justify how I feel. If someone says to me “you have nice skin” I automatically take that in and feel good for a few weeks by saying to myself “Well I can’t have nice skin and be dying of some disease”
But the fact remains that I have to pee more and more like 20 times a day and all I keep thinking is that my kidneys are done and so am i. If that is the case I think id rather just die then know and suffer the rest of my life. I will go and die in the woods before I let my family suffer with me. They sufferd enough just dealing with my bullshit over the years. Oh and like 6 years ago this one girl told me that I gave her something but I thought she was lining and I never got it checked. I just pushed it away in my brain.
If you can help , I will owe you my life. If you can’t at least you heard a story that you probably never heard before.
