There are a number of ways to quit smoking that are floating around. Annoyingly, however, there is also a great number of smoking cessation methods that don’t work, undermining peoples’ confidence in the working ones. Read on to find out what to avoid!
Nicotine Replacement Therapy
You’re not addicted to cigarettes because you crave nicotine, you crave the cigarettes! You want the tactile stimulation of holding the cigarette, the outlaw look, the whole atmosphere that smokers have. Granted, that’s all a facade, but it’s hard to see that. Treating smoking like some kind of disease ultimately leads to failure, as the poor success rates of NRT users are indicative of.
Meditation
I wasn’t going to put this one on here, because it sounds a bit ridiculous, but I’ve seen a ton of people marketing products that will somehow “hypnotize” you into not smoking. If you were to look at it objectively, you’d know that it was rubbish, but the desperation of people who want to quit smoking is capitalized upon and they still manage to stay afloat.
E-Cigarette
I’ve only recently started hearing about this thing, and every time I see it I feel my stomach churn. The whole point of quitting smoking is to not take nicotine into your body. How does replacing one kind of cigarette with some fancy electronic nicotine delivery doodad really solve anything? Exactly.
An unfortunate side effect of the number of wonderfully poor cessation methods out there is that people who want to quit find themselves discouraged and give up or postpone the idea of quitting.
Luckily, there are a few methods that actually do work. Take a look at my easyquit system review to see what can work for you right now!
