When people start smoking they get cravings to have something in their hands and mouth. At first they fill the need with cigarettes and eventually they are smoking a pack or two a day.

Others are quite content to keep on puffing because they think they enjoy it so much.” When people convince themselves that smoking is a horrible thing and they don’t want to do it any more then it becomes very easy to stop.
