It is said that cigarette tobacco is as addictive as heroine, or even more addictive. That means that a person can become addictive with just one puff of one cigarette. The reason why cigarettes are so addictive is because the tobacco attaches to certain receptors in our brains that trigger certain fight or flight tendencies, such as the affects of adrenaline. That’s why a person may feel calmed by a cigarette even though it’s a stimulant. The problem is that the tobacco fits into those receptors better, and more easily, than the chemicals in our bodies. For this reason, once you start smoking, it’s nearly impossible to quit.
Mark Twain once said that quitting smoking was easy, he’d done it a thousand times. It is said that most smokers quit at least five times before they finally kick the habit and most people never do. Why would this be the case with so many stop smoking products on the market? That’s because that most people use stop smoking products to quit smoking but just end up become addicted to the products. It’s like an alcoholic trying to quit drinking by attaching alcohol patches to themselves. It still contains alcohol, or in this case nicotine, and so you are merely replacing one with the other.
