I always wonder why a lot of people do smoke. My friends commented that thru smoking it enables them to relieve stress, it enhances their ability to think, it can calm themselves when they are under pressure. I saw friends playing smoke in artistic ways by creating shapes with it. It is fun to see. Is this fun to see how people ruining their health for temporary remedy? Once you try to smoke later it became a habit and addiction is real.
Do you ask yourself, why cigarette companies selling and telling their consumers the causes of smoking to their health? That photos are scary posted on the cigarette box. Are they really concerns about health? I think, they are not. How many people right now in the hospital are in pain and bedridden because of heart problem, kidney failures, lung damage, diabetes hands and feet are cut off, losing eyesight.
Why they are not afraid of the impact of smoking when they are becoming much older. The price of one stick cigarette is pricey, people don't mind at all but once you feel the side effect. You will feel paranoid. Are you alone to suffer for it? I am 100% sure your love ones will suffer with you. Why risk yourself in this situation even you are aware of the consequence to your actions?
I heard from my elder Sis, My brother William addicted to cigarette was terrible. He can smoke one pack a day. My brother in law saw the side effect to his body. I was bothered about it. Thinking about my brother's health failing in the near future if he will not stop now.
My brother William resigned from work and decided to live with me. I took this opportunity to reduce his addiction. Day after day he begged me for money. I said no, so that he can no longer buy a stick of cigarette. His behaviour changes a lot. He ate 5-6 times a day, he is grumpy, easily get pissed off, he's acting like a crazy person, driving him to steal money from me by trying to open my room. I stood firm and confronted him towards his actions to the best I can.
He was trying to hit me. I got scared. I kept reminding myself why of doing this. I can no longer take it and I went to my elder sis's house for advice how to handle this properly. My brother in law told me his having nicotine withdrawal symptoms. His body craving for it. I took his advice to buy and give him one stick a day. I never imagined myself buying it.
I explained to my brother, why I am not giving him money because I feel guilty that I am the one who will ruin his life. He calmed down and slowly he decided for himself not to smoke again.
Now, he is enjoying his life cycling and making friends in our village. I reminded him not to smoke in a gentle way. I am happy we passed these trials together.
It is hard to help someone who doesn't need help to win this addiction. As an elder sister of my brothers I stood stand for the right and educate them how one stick can ruin their health. There are ways to consider beside smoking, do some sports activities or fun things to do for person to release stress. Sports can make your mind healthy as well. For me smoking is just an excuse for someone's ignorance.
A friendly reminder, if you are smoking better make a change now or you will regret it later. Think about your love ones.
