Why do you want to quit?

There are many good reasons for wanting to quit smoking:

Health: The utmost reason for wanting to quit should be our health. Smoking severely damages our health, and risks the health of those around us. Smoking is responsible for as many as 114,000 deaths a year in the UK – that’s over two thousand a week!

Cost: Tobacco products are heavily taxed and we can only expect that tax to increase in the years to come. With a pack of Marlboros costing around £8.50 at the time of writing, a 20 a day habit could easily cost you £250 a month.

Social stigma: Many of us remember when smoking was accepted everywhere, but that’s certainly not the case anymore. We can often feel like outcasts for smoking and that feeling is another good reason to seek help to give up for good.

Smell: It’s hard to understand why cigarette smoke clings to us, but even when we smoke outside we’re left with an unpleasant smell on our clothes and hair. This then affects our cars and homes too, no matter what products we might use to try to mask the smell.

Our children: Few of us actually enjoy being smokers, and fewer still would want their children to start, or be affected by passive smoking. Our children are a real consideration and they benefit too when we give up.

These are just some of the major reasons to quit, others include the benefits to your teeth and skin, your attractiveness to others, even your sex drive!

How will you benefit from quitting?

One of the great things about giving up is that we start to feel the benefits immediately. Within minutes we’ll experience improvements to both our blood pressure and pulse. Within 8 hours the levels of carbon monoxide in our bodies will start to decrease and both our hearts and lungs will start to repair themselves. In two days we will have purged ourselves of nicotine and our sense of smell and taste will improve.
