People in various cultures have been smoking tobacco for centuries, in rituals or, just for the enjoyment. People then did not become addicted and did not smoke the equivalent of a pack a day. There was no issue with people wanting to quit smoking. It was an occasional pleasure. What's the deal?
In the late 20th century, doctors began issuing stern lectures on the horrible health effects of smoking, which presumably they had just discovered. This sounds just a teeny bit like the recent $700 billion elephant that fell out of the sky, without warning! So it has been with cigarettes. While tobacco manufacturers are now offering advice on how to quit smoking, this seems a bit disingenuous, because they're still turning out cigarettes by the millions and selling them.
Why has tobacco become so addictive that millions and millions of people who truly have the motivation and desire to quit smoking fail, even with nicotine chewing gums, lozenges and patches?
For one thing, few people roll their own cigarettes. They can be purchased at any hour of the day or night and come in a convenient, pocket-sized pack. Just pull one out and light up.smokingnicotine withdrawlquit smokingtobaccosmoker
