Quit Smoking Cold Turkey: The Warrior’s Way To Health
Comments (1)To quit smoking cold turkey is really a fantasy in the mind of most smokers. I should know, I used to smoke two packs a day. The idea of stopping smoking cold turkey “just like that” was a dream I entertained, usually when I was smoking. But is it a realistic prospect for most smokers? In this article I shall attempt to answer that question.
As a former smoker, I would have to say that to quit smoking cold turkey is completely unadvisable. Something that non-smokers fail to understand is the extent to which smokers develop an emotional attachment with their habit. When I smoked, cigarettes seemed to fill the hole of just about every emotion for me. If I was anxious, I would smoke. If I was ecstatic, I would smoke. If I was bored, I would smoke. If I drank, I would smoke. Cigarettes weren’t just a habit – they were an extension of me.
