I was reading a newspaper the other day and in it some research said that it is 10 times harder to quit smoking than it is to quit cocaine!! Now that just doesnt seem true to me.
How hard is it to quit? What makes it all so hard? Why cant a person just quit? Get talkin people!

Hey friend,
I think that ,Smoking is really tough to quit ,rather thn to hold it,i think, no one can leave it, if once it has been tasted by the body.So, to quit the smoking,the only thing i think,tht no one,should start it,as if it is started,tht there is no end for it,and it becomes the habbit for the life.

To quit smoking is very easy and at the same time very hard. One thing to remember here, that one must have strong determination and will power to quit smoking.

It is not easy to quit smoking. I tried to quit for three times but never success. Look like I am going to die while smoking. For non smokers it look very easy but people like me it getting harder to quit. You can get some way to quit smoking at http://lets-stop-smoking.blogspot.com . I used some of the technic before and quit for several days before I start smoking again.

Intresting fact. I have this friend that said that smoking is not addicting. It probally takes willpower to quit smoking, something that a few people dont have.

I don't know why people can't quit smoking, I am myself a smoker and I smoke around 20 cigs daily but I can't make up my mind to left this habit of smoking I can understand that sometimes people get uncomfortable due to smoking by me.
I always try to quit smoking but never get the courage to quit the smoking. But i want to leave this habit as it is ruining my life and can create some health problems too.
