Take deep breaths to relax yourself every now and again...

Many people underestimate how irritable people can become when they are quitting smoking. The withdrawal symptoms can make people edgy and nervous as well as hard for them to focus on the job that they are doing at the time.

So a little word of advice from Ukmedix News is if you know people who are quitting smoking be conscious of the fact that they may be experiencing pressure and so treat them gently and carefully. If you really want to help your colleagues who are quitting smoking a gentle word of encouragement every now and again and a tiny bit of sympathy for them will go a long way.

Doctors in the UK have warned companies that they may experience what they call “desk rage” which is basically self explanatory when the smoking ban comes in, and even those people who are not trying to quit may experience problems trying to find a location where they can have a cigarette which could make them angry too.

One of the good things about the smoking ban in public places is that people who are committed smokers will find that they will be smoking less. For example when they go out to eat they will notice that they must get up and go outside for each and every cigarette, meaning that during a long meal they may only have one or two whereas previously they would have smoked four or five cigarettes.

If you are quitting smoking and you are finding yourself under great stress at work take time to sit in a chilled place and take deep breaths to relax yourself every now and again. Remind yourself why you are giving up smoking, think of all the positive things of being smoke free and maybe even warn your colleagues that you will be feeling a little bit stressed because you can’t have your cigarettes.

The smoking drug Champix made by the drug company Pfizer has been seen in clinical testing is to reduce the amount of stress associated with quitting smoking.
