==============================

Smokers make many excuses for not quitting. One of them is

the 'concentration con'. How many times have you heard a

smoker say, 'I'd like to quit, but it helps me

concentrate'. Maybe you've said it yourself ?

In reality, smoking doesn't help concentration from a

medical viewpoint. So the idea that smoking helps

concentration is just a perception, or an imagined positive

reason for not quitting.

It's true that withdrawal symptoms, starting not long after

your last cigarette, cause feelings of irritability and

restlessness. These feelings started because of

cigarettes, and it's strange that another cigarette should

be the way to relieve them.

In fact, smoking makes concentration much harder, not

easier. Although another cigarette temporarily relieves

the symptoms caused by the cigarette in the first place,

the cigarette is not the aid to concentration which many

smokers wrongly choose to believe.

Truth is, smoking another cigarette will make concentration

progressively harder. With any drug, you eventually need

more and more of it to produce the same effect. A smoker

will never be able to concentrate as well as a non-smoker.
