Quit Smoking

I am trying to quit smoking now. It felt like hell for last two days. It is not easy to overcome craving desire for cigarette. Finally, I felt relieved when I went to shop to buy "nicotine substitutes".

The symptoms of quitting is more serious than I expected though this is not my first time to quit the smoking. I tried more than ten times in nine years of my smoking life. But, I relapse after three weeks at most.

It is a lot better than I expected. All of my irritation caused by lack of nicotine gone instantly. I only have a problem with those things. Since I bought gum type of nicotine substitute and its chewing pattern is not same as normal chewing gum, I felt like overdose with nicotine sometimes.

Improvement can be seen in a short time. All my morning cough nearly gone. No blood in morning cough anymore. I have stronger appetite for food currently. However, I need to control it since I have already overweight.

Smoking cessation articles from Yahoo health categories help me a lot. I read another helpful articles from QuitAssit. I have strong reason to quit currently. My health seem like deteriorate over time. My mother also advice me to quit because she said weight and smoking should not be at the same place.

Let's see how long I can stand without cigarette.
