Now you may think that you could be the one to quit smoking cold turkey. Many people believe that they are not addicted to tobacco and can quit whenever they want. Unfortunately, it is a lot harder than most people would like to admit. It is not just you, though, the addiction is very hard to break. Naturally, if you are cutting your body off from something it is used to, there are going to be side affects. When you cut off your tobacco source, expect to have side affects such as:
- Urge to smoke
- Depressed mood
- Insomnia
- Irritability, frustration, or anger
- Anxiety
- Difficulty concentrating
- Restlessness
- Decreased heart rate
- Increased appetite or weight gain
Although it may be hard, and these are not appealing side affects, try to keep up your quest to quit smoking!
