People say all of the time that they would quit smoking cigarettes if their life would just settle down long enough for them to concentrate on getting it done. The thing is that that time rarely ever comes along and it never does get done. This is just one more excuse that a smoker will use to put off trying to quit until another time. Most of the time when people try to stop smoking cold turkey they are not successful for long. However, there are a lot of people on the other hand that do manage to stop all at once and do not start back. If you think you could stop smoking this way, it might be worth the effort at least one time.
It might be a sacrifice of your vacation time, but what better time could there be to dedicate an entire week or perhaps even two to quitting smoking? It can be the perfect opportunity if you use your vacation time for that. One reason for this is that when you try to stop smoking all at once, it is a good thing to try and sleep as much as you can. This can help you get through the roughest part of the first few days when most people who are attempting to quit will give in a smoke almost right away.
Sleeping can be a good thing for that reason and you could probably really use the extra rest anyway since it is your vacation. If you and your spouse both smoke, this could be a great time for the two of you to tackle the problem together at the same time. It can be difficult for a couple to stop smoking because if one tries to quit the other may not be ready. It is important that the both of you be really committed to doing this before you even start or you could end up wasting a perfectly good vacation for nothing, but if one or both of you managed to quit this way while on vacation, what better outcome could there be. It would definitely be a vacation to remember.
It might be a good idea to visit your family doctor before you start your quit smoking vacation. Since most smokers who are trying to quit get really anxious before they even start trying, he might be able to prescribe you some temporary anxiety medication or a sleeping aid to help you get through the first week. Just remember that any time you take prescription medication or over the counter aids, always use them as recommended. You might not be successful, but it could be worth a try especially if you have tried other methods before and failed.
