What are other reasons that people dont want to quit smoking?

Does smoking help stop allergies?

I have severe asthma and also have a history of smoking although I do not currently smoke. A lot of non-smokers and doctors will tell you how bad smoking is for an asthmatic and to some extent they are correct although it is not as black and white as health professionals claim. Smoking does help asthmatics bring up phlegm and this can help asthmatics breathe better. Smoking may help asthmatics lose weight and this improves lung function as well. When quitting smoking, many people get sick on and off for a year or so. Asthmatics can sometimes experience much more lung problems during the year after quitting smoking. I had pneumonia twice after quitting smoking. Other considerations involve the severity of asthma and the amount of smoking. Someone with very mild asthma who is a light smoker may not suffer many consequences. As a severe asthmatic who was a heavy smoker, I suffered more consequences. Smoking is not good for you but quitting is a personal decision that only the smoker can make. When health professionals harass smokers it often makes them want to smoke more. Stress also contributes to asthma. Take it easy on yourself and do your best.

Quitting Smoking and the Patch?

For many people, quitting smoking seems like an impossible feat. Nicotine is arguably the most addictive widely-available substance that exists.

This significantly reduces your body's nicotine cravings, thereby reducing your desire to smoke.
