Stopping smoking does not lead to an increase in stress, a recent survey has revealed. The study, undertaken by researchers at the University of Wisconsin in America examined the psychological state of the participants at various stages as and after they quit smoking. Contrary to the assumptions by the majority of the participants that stopping smoking would lead them to worry more and have a ‘reduced quality of life’, the results showed that the 1500 participants experienced positive psychological effects in the long-term.
