The present is the best time to quit smoking.

While it is hard to say that the past year has been a good and easy background for quitting smoking, indeed many have reported that they smoke more than in the past, and yet, some smokers have actually decided to take matters into their own hands in the inter-closure periods and quit smoking.

But anyone who has stopped smoking knows that this withdrawal is not a simple business, and besides the phantom pains and cigarette cravings, there are some sucking physical effects that come with it.

Merav Niran, training manager at the Alan Carr network, explained to us why this is happening.

Cough:

Some post-weaning weaners begin to suffer from a troublesome cough.

Why does this happen when you stop smoking?

First, it's a sign that you're on your way to clearing your lungs.

The cigarettes have suppressed the respiratory system and its degeneration and a lot of toxic substances have accumulated somewhere in your health.

Through the cough, the respiratory system returns to a normal state of function while clearing the toxins and tar that has been infected and the mucus that has formed in the body.

The cough can last for several weeks after weaning, but there is nothing to fear from it.

On the contrary - it is a positive sign.

To make coping easier, you can drink tea with ginger and honey, take understandable breaks during the day and take deep breaths.

Physical fitness will also speed up lung cleansing and improve your breathing.

2. Obesity:

Many people reject smoking cessation for fear of gaining weight.

You can understand them, because there are retirees who feel they need compensation for the cigarette that is gone and instead of taking a shakhta, need some snack.

But it is not a necessity of reality to gain weight.

If you quit when the desire to smoke also stops, there are those who even lose weight after quitting.

In addition, one needs to know to identify during the day what is real hunger and what is hunger for compensation.

When you feel like snacking, think to yourself if you are really hungry, try drinking a glass of cold water or soda and postpone the meal until it makes sense to eat it.

When you stop smoking from a whole place and do not feel like giving up and seek compensation, you will probably even find that you lose weight because the need to snack decreases, along with the need to smoke every half hour.

Nervousness:

Smokers often see cigarettes as a tool for controlling stress, and ex-smokers sometimes return to smoking because of the thought that it will help them deal with nerves and stress.

This is only true when you stop smoking using willpower and that the motivation to quit smoking stems from a fear of harm.

But if you stop smoking out of a sense of victory and completion, and eliminate the desire to smoke, then no such side effects appear.

It is interesting to note that in a study published in the journal Addiction, it was shown that smoking actually raises the levels of stress and tension in the lives of the participants and not the other way around.

The researchers say the findings support the notion that cigarette addiction is a chronic source of stress in itself.

This is because when smokers cannot smoke, as the length of time that passes without a cigarette lengthens, they tend to feel more and more tense, restless and irritable.

A cigarette helps to release this state of stress, but it is also what creates it.

And this is probably the main reason why smokers believe that smoking reduces stress levels even though the situation is actually the opposite.

envy and cigarette cravings:

When smokers stop consuming nicotine by quitting smoking they can quit nicotine within a few days.

Physical detoxification is short and uncomplicated.

But if a smoker stops smoking without reference to the mental side of quitting and does not seek professional guidance and support, chances are he will continue to feel a sense of longing for the cigarette and feel deprived.

So he will continue to envy other smokers as if he has given up on good company.

If you quit smoking while eliminating the benefits associated with smoking, then there is no reason to miss smoking or see it as something that contributes more to me, a study by researchers from Brown and Southern California universities found that smoking cessation makes people happier and this effect lasts as long as they do not smoke .

Therefore, instead of feelings of discrimination and jealousy in other smokers will appear feelings of happiness and gratitude that we are free.

5. Physical withdrawal difficulties: The

prevailing opinion among smokers is that if they stop smoking, they will experience severe physical withdrawal symptoms while nicotine is being cleared from their body, but the opposite is true.

The physical withdrawal symptoms from nicotine are mild, sometimes almost imperceptible, and resemble a feeling of hunger or restlessness.

Feeling like emptiness or having to do something with your hands and mouth.

Another myth is that smokers experience withdrawal symptoms only when they stop smoking, the truth is that smokers experience withdrawal symptoms between cigarettes.

This is what makes them reach for the next cigarette.

The good news is that nicotine is a drug that cleanses the body very quickly, and between 3-5 days after quitting smoking there are almost no symptoms at all, after 21 there is no more nicotine in the blood, and if the weaner's attitude is of joy and dependence then the physical withdrawal symptoms are almost imperceptible.
