Webster defines an addiction as the state of being enslaved to a habit or practice or to something that is psychologically or physically habit-forming, as narcotics, to such an extent that its cessation causes severe trauma.
If you have or have ever had an addiction, then you know it can be described in SO many more words. However we don’t need to get into all that. What we need is a way to overcome an addiction, in particular a smoking or nicotine addiction.
I have designed this website to offer you a way out. A way to release yourself from the driving force that controls so much of what you do everyday. Imagine if you didn’t have that nagging feeling that dictates what you do and when you do it. You can walk around breathing easier, and actually smell and taste things the way they were meant to smell and taste. You will live a longer life, without heart disease, lung disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or emphysema.

Just 12 hours after you have your last cigarette you body starts to heal itself.
After only 48 hours your get your sense of smell and taste back, and your nerves start the regrowing process. Within 2-3 months your lung capacity increases by 30%, you have better blood circulation and you can walk easily without getting out of breath. Between months 1 and 9 of quitting smoking you will see that you have more energy, your lungs will increase their ability to handle mucus, and you will find that you are getting short of breath less often.
Now after you hit the 5 year mark your chance of dying of lung cancer decreases more than 50%, and after ten years your chance of lung cancer is about equal to a non smoker. Pre-cancerous cells are replaced as well, and the chance of getting other types of cancer is decreased.
These are just a few of the improvements to your life and most importantly your health that you have to look forward to once you have kicked the habit.
