Are you a secret smoker?

When Nick Clegg revealed in a radio interview he was a secret smoker, little did he know how much of a fuss his confession would cause. 

Yet according to a survey by Nicorette, 52 percent of smokers keep the fact that they smoke a secret from someone (including, in some cases, their doctor).

And there's more. The survey also found that nearly 40 percent said they hide their secret smoking from others every day, with 32 percent admitting they had secretly smoked for more than five years.

The survey also revealed that most secret smokers give in and have a cigarette within 30 minutes of their cravings starting. Some even admitted travelling five miles or more in order to get their hands on a cigarette.

If you're struggling to give up smoking, talk to your pharmacist today about products that could give you the help you need, such as nicotine replacement therapy.
