ESSAY ON: Psychological Components Of Smoking Cessation

Number of Pages 4

This research paper: 4 pages in length. Twenty-six-year-old Shelly initially started smoking at a young age because of peer pressure; she was not all that fond of the habit but when she began dating the most popular boy at school who also smoked, there was no way she could voluntarily stop. As she grew older and the highly addictive nicotine was solidly entrenched within her body, the desire to smoke was triggered by any number of otherwise unassociated instigators, not the least of which included answering the telephone, having an alcoholic beverage, watching television, after eating, coffee breaks and stressful situation. The guilt, odor and harsh impact upon her body (American Academy of Pediatrics, 2006) she endures after every single cigarette is reason enough to quit, yet the nicotine's strong influence on her behavior has made it virtually impossible for Shelly to remain on a cessation program for more than a few months at a time. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
