5) Breaking the Chains that Bind After you've been smoking for a while, the addictive process changes your psychology so that you develop beliefs which keep you bound to the cigarettes. It costs less than a month of smoking a pack a day - so if you do our course and quit, the course would have paid for itself within a month of you being smoke-free
This process occurs because your lungs are working hard to expel all of the tar, toxins and carcinogenic materials that have been suppressed in your lungs. Cilia are the small, hair-like objects in your respiratory system (from your nose to your lungs) that are responsible for filtering out dust and other impurities
During that whole time, even though I was 'over' smoking and had no desire to smoke again, I was often sad about not being a smoker anymore - it was like an old comfortable friend had died. A friend who'd quit a zillion years ago mentioned this to me while I was still a smoker a couple times and then later when I quit I didn't know what he was talking about at all for the first year, figured it was more just sort of purposeful thinking to condition him to not miss it or want it, a sort of sour grapes thing
How to stop taking Zoloft, Taper off or Cold Turkey?
After gaining about 18 lbs while on the zoloft, i want to stay off of it now that I'm going through this withdrawl already, but I'm just not sure if I can do this much longer.

For the first time ever, I took a group of students on an extended field trip (three nights to Boston) without feeling insane, and without having to leave them to satisfy some stupid addiction
The first three weeks were hell on earth, not just for me, but for my poor suffering family as well, my husband said that I was, 'divorce material!' to cut a long story short, that was 25 years ago and I have never had another cigarette. I also found that if I could distract myself from the thought of having a cigarette it might be an hour or more before another urge came along and that gap just kept on growing
washed all the ashtrays and after 32 years of smoking, started on this journey to FREEDOM! It was tough, but I knew lung cancer was tougher watching my dad. Therese, Perth, Western Australia I never made the connection with my name and 'winning over the ash' until you pointed it out :-) Talk about a blind spot! Thanks for pointing it out though, it has become another metaphor for me in my journey towards health by never taking another puff.
