Smokers are generally very eager as well as anxious to quit smoking. Smoking has leaded them at the threshold of many diseases like heart attacks, cancers, emphysema. Most of the smokers know that smoking is rotting their body from inside and slowly have started deteroiting their physical charm. Still smoking is their buddy and still an existing problem. We need to search for the reason of its existence.
It is a fact that smoking is more of psychological addiction than physical addiction. The Nicotine addiction in your body can be controlled, but mind addiction is tough to control.
One thing that helps you in quitting smoking is a complete personal analysis.
Take a paper and make two columns in it. In one column put heading, the cause for quitting. In another column, write down the cause for taking up smoking.

The ETS mainly consist of about 4000 poisonous substances. They make entry into our body and 40 among them can be carcinogens. Whether you are smoking or just inhaling the smoke exhaled by a smoker, it does not matter. The consequences are dangerous and lead to several respiratory problems.
Some people have taken smoking for fashion but this trend of theirs can lead them at the threshold of most ugly form of cancer-Breast cancer. The studies and researches draw a line between truth and myth. One of existing misconceptions is the myth that young men generally get addicted fast to smoking. But it has been found that young women adapt this bad habit much quickly than young men. The next horrid conclusion that comes forward is that passive smoker is at high risk of breast cancer than chain smokers.
