One thing I really gained from Allen Carr's book was that even in the beginning of my quit, I could go about my normal business and be happy. I did not have to freak out, or be nasty, or hide in my house. Some times the campaigns from stop smoking organizations that promote the idea that quitting is so hard can unnecessarily add to a smoker's reluctance to quit.

The podcast discusses that part of the reason cigs are so expensive is that the cost of the settlement agreements are being passed on to the current smoker. This is really disgusting if you think about it.

I listen to alot of podcasts and heard this today. Interesting http://freakonomics.com/2014/04/03/how-to-make-people-quit-smoking-a-new-freakonomics-radio-podcast/ This is a light hearted podcast but I found this excerpt from the transcript to be sobering: WARNER: About 45 million adult Americans are smokers today. That’s approximately 18 to 20 percent of the adult population. Cigarettes are currently killing 480,000 Americans annually. That’s one out of every five deaths in the nation. In other words, one out of every five deaths is completely avoidable. And the people who die as a result of smoking are losing up to 20 years of life expectancy.
