Quitting Cold Turkey

Each person set a quit day and saw a nurse once a week until then. Four weeks later, 40 percent of the gradual group and 49 percent of the “cold turkey” group had quit smoking. This suggests that if smokers quit immediately when motivated, they will have a higher success rate compared to those who gradually cut down on cigarettes. So go on, set your quit date.

A study in the American Journal of Sociology found 30 percent of men and 35 percent of women meet the criteria for a mental illness. Compare this to the 17 and 27 percent, respectively, in treatment.

One in 10 American men suffer from depression or anxiety, but fewer than half seek treatment. Only two in five people, regardless of gender, seek help the same year their disorder onsets.
