This is my experience -

Probably nothing good really for the body, however, it does help with certain things -

 

Like driving. When i smoked, I didn't notice as much how people tailgated, swerved in and out of lanes, didn't bother to go on a green light, or how a red light meant "Four more cars may pass if in the turning lane". As soon as i quit smoking, drivers got a lot worse.

 

Smoking helps keep a more solid break schedule. Since one NEEDS that smoke, the break is taken at the correct time instead of like non smokers such as me just taking it whenever.

Strange as it sounds.  Have to say I agree about the breaks.   Nowadays at work, I will work straight through till lunch without hardly getting out my chair, where I used to at least take one break mid-morning, walk down the stairs and back up when finished.  Now I have to keep reminding myself to get up and walk around.

Smoking does have benefits.

  • It helps with weight control.
  • Provides some protection against Parkinson's disease
  • Lowers risk of knee replacement surgery 
  • Simplifies retirement planning.
  • Provides additional tax funding to government.
  • Reduces Social Security impacts on society as a whole.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
