The Best Way To End Smoking Is The Natural Way

The writer of the article has been a life long smoker from Europe. After immigrating to the US, and being analyzed with asthma, nearing her middle age, she was trying to stop smoking approximately on everyday basis, but all of the attempts unhappily did not succeed. Nicotine gum and patches didn't work for her, therefore she consulted her physician, who joined her in a program and prescribed medications, but that didn't her her quit smoking either. What she discovered was that a severe change of routine worked excellently in her case. Something humorous came to to an extremely serious issue suggests that everyone needs to get what works efficiently for them, as well-known "one size fits all" approach never makes everyone happy.

In the first person: I was born 40 something years ago in Europe, with a cigarette in my mouth. My parents smoked, my relatives smoked, my friends smoked. My father is 82 and still a chain smoker. Smoking is an inevitable part of cultural habits, meeting people, and having excitement. For a culture that lives on avenues full of cafes, smoking is not optional, it's almost necessary.

I was 13 when I got hooked on cigarettes, enough to start budgeting part of my everyday allowance for cigarettes. Mind you, I wasn't an outsider, a straight A student, from a wealthy academic family, I was actually trying to fit in. At that point, and also many years later, trying to stop smoking was not even in the back of my mind. It will take me 30 more years to reach to that point.

Novelist by profession, smoking was greatly a part of my everyday routine. It was accurately like it used to be in the old black and white movies - me, the typewriter, and the big ashtray with the cigarette butts piled up high. Soon after I moved to the US, the problems with my smoking resulted. They were not simply of social nature any longer; they became a health concern as well. Not just did I move to the Bay Area, California, which was the undisputed leader in the witch search for smokers, I was detected with asthma.

I could say from that moment on, 15 years ago, I was trying to quit smoking on a daily basis. There was by now a drastic change in place for me - I couldn't smoke at my workplace any more and I had to time my smoking habits according to the office schedule. It was harder at home because my colleague, an American, was a smoker also.

We decided to just smoke outside the home. That didn't work at all, as, sadly, it's California, the climate is pleasing year around, so we both finished up simply sleeping in the house, while living, eating, having friends over on the back yard terrace. It's amazing with how much yard work you can invent - our postage stamp sized back yard became more like a jungle with heirloom tomatoes, tea roses, sweet peas, and citrus trees.

I finally quit smoking cold turkey. Two years later, with a new lease on life, I'm proud to say - I haven't had a cigarette since. I understand it very well: once an addict, forever an addict and I had my share of night sweats, nightmares, inevitable shivers, unmanageable crying. But I can always say it was caused by my divorce drama, not nicotine. Every now and then, during lunch break in the monetary region, I stop by someone smoking in front of their office building. Second hand smoke still smells so good.
