I Quit; Quitting is good sometimes!
You’ve always heard of a motivational quote, Never Quit, but when it comes to cigarette, ofcourse it’s like burning a candle at both ends. It’s an epitome in life when a person decides to quit.
Here are the 5 things you should empathize with a smoker. Nicotine reaches within 10 seconds of when it enters your body. It causes the brain to release adrenaline and that creates a buzz of pleasure and energy. Although everyone criticizes the smoking, even the
front package has 80% area covered with Warning, even a smoker knows that it’s not even good for health. But does it make the sense or is it really helping people quit smoking. Let’s understand the 5 things we need to take care of smokers around us.
- Self-Medication:
- Smokers feel as a short term self-medication while he or she smokes a cigarette, it’s a stressbuster and a instant relief. An ideal person in India would prefer a tea, coffee, fresh air on a terrace or just scrolling through social media.
- Culture:
- It’s not just the fault of a smoking person, It’s the culture which is contradictory. At one side, we criticize the smoking, tobacco etc and the other instance, the breaks are usually smoke-breaks, we’ve smoking zone, we’ve pan parlours at every cross road and we’ve been encouraging it. Nowadays, it’s also delivered through online platforms.
- Glorification:
- The other contradictory is the celebrities in movies smoking the cigarette and glorifying it as a style for last many decades. It’s inherited in our culture, where Kings and Emperors were having a Huqqa nearby their chair. It has been glorified as a prestige sign since ages. Atleast we can stop glorifying it as a status symbol.
- Distraction:
- Smoking isn’t a style, it’s an addiction, when we say addiction, a person when depressed, tensed and feel alone, those moments have a higher chance of a person following their addiction. Let’s normalize the situations, let them know that everyone whether a smoker or a non-smoker faces challenges in their lives, and they should face it and go inside to fight the fear instead of running away every time.
- Be a true friend or a partner:
- There are 2 kinds of well-wishers in our lives, one who criticizes smoking and the other who encourages, accompanies or sometimes introduces the smoking concept to them. Major of them have said that they learnt from their friends. Don’t accompany them for smoking, instead accompany them for not-smoking. Engage them in some sports, quality conversations and other normal good practices. Let them know there is a huge world of happiness to explore when you come out of the smoking zone.
