Quit Tip

A State of Constant Tension

Abstaining from smoking a cigarette is actually a stress-reduction exercise. Many smokers claim that smoking relaxes them; in reality nicotine addiction, like any addiction, actually increases one's overall level of mental, emotional and physical stress. Increased heart rate, higher blood pressure, and nicotine withdrawal in between cigarettes all contribute to a state of constant tension.

Be tuff .. don't puff :)
