Smoking and Mature
living June 23rd, 2009It seems that the man that smokes is very sexy and mature.Well,thanks to the advertisement and films,some women are trying smoking now.In fact I hate smoking very much.I do not think it is good when I am smoking.But I have to do that when I am in a formal situation.
Life is very short ,so we had better to be health in order to live longer.So smoking is not a thing you deserve for it.
Q:What are the dangers of smoking?
A:(it is from yahoo answers)Cancer, other lung disease, cardiovascular disease. Premature aging, yellow teeth, bad breath, and paying through the nose for cigarettes. I don’t actually mind smelling a little cigarette smoke even though I am a non-smoker, but I try to keep it to a minimum.
I think if a person wants to run a restaurant or bar and allow people to smoke there, they can do that as far as I am concerned. If the smoke is too thick, I’ll go somewhere else for food and drinks. It’s up to them to decide which customers they are more insterested in accomodating.
But it’s not so simple for a person to just choose not to go to school or not to go to the hospital or not to ride on public transit. Therefore, I think it’s totally reasonable to legally ban smoking in these sorts of places. A non-smoker who doesn’t want to breathe smoke shouldn’t have to go significantly out of their way to avoid it.
Q:Can we take any measure to quit smoking?
A:It is very hard to quit if you have been smoking for a long time.But I can give you some tips here.
1. Start with some pre-preparation by ensuring that you really do want to quit smoking and understanding why you smoke. Are these reasons powerful enough to motivate you when you are faced with those tricky situations? Write down your reasons for quitting. You may want to take a look at some of the benefits of quitting.
2. Set yourself a date for quitting. Try and choose a date that will be stress free but when you can find plenty to do to keep yourself busy. Try and set a date within about two weeks of reading this.
3. Ask your doctor for advice. This is especially important if you have health problems or are concerned about issues such as weight gain.
4. Consider finding yourself a quitting partner relatives, work colleagues and friends are a good place to start. Set a date to quit together and you will be able to give each other support.
5. Tell your family and friends about your intentions. Ask them for their support before you quit and explain that you may not be yourself while experiencing withdrawal. When you reach your quitting date rely on those that have been most encouraging for support.
6. Think about starting an exercise program and a sensible eating plan. Again speak to your doctor or dietician. Exercise will give you more energy and help you to relax and relieve stress.
7. You should know what triggers your desire for a cigarette, such as stress, the end of a meal, drinking in a bar, etc. Avoid these triggers while you are trying to quit or if that’s not possible, decide how you will deal with the triggers.
8. Decide what you will do when you experience cravings. As we’ve discussed deep breathing, a short walk and keeping you self busy will help to take your mind off the cravings. Perhaps you can think of other ways. Write them down. Remember these cravings will only last for 3-5 minutes at a time.
9. If you have tried quitting before maybe you came across a stumbling block which we have discussed such as finding something to do with your hands. If so, you need to arm yourself with a solution to these foreseeable problems. Get yourself a pen, or stress relief aid to fiddle with, if occupying your hands is a problem.
10. Be positive and confident you can quit. You have spent time and energy planning how you will deal with the task ahead. You can and will do it if you persevere. Ten of thousands of people are quitting every day around the world. You can be one of them.
