I wasn't an addicted smoker, but "more-so" a social smoker or habitual smoker. If I had a drink I wanted one, or if I was outside relaxing I'd smoke one, but I never got to the point where I had a desire to smoke or lose my mind if I didn't have one. I won't lie, there were times when I would go out clubbing with friends on a weekend and smoke 2 packs in one night, just because I socialized and drank the night away. Quitting cold turkey was never a problem for me. I can't remember when was the last time I had a cigarette, but I will say this... I feel so much better not doing it.
The benefits are remarkable! I found this website that uses a timetable to educate you on the benefits of smoking cessation, check it out here. Find out what happens after 48 hrs.
Your blood pressure, pulse rate, and the temperature of your hands and feet will all return to normal. | |
Remaining nicotine in your bloodstream will have fallen to 6.25% of normal peak daily levels, a 93.25% reduction. | |
Your blood oxygen level will have increased to normal and carbon monoxide levels will have dropped to normal. | |
Anxieties peak in intensity and within two weeks should return to near pre-cessation levels. | |
Damaged nerve endings have started to regrow and your sense of smell and taste are beginning to return to normal. Cessation anger and irritability peaks. |
