Stop Smoking?

@GeeOne:
You have explained with the help of image that how much smoking is dangerous and to what extent it can damage the health of person. I don't know if the people know that it is harmful than why they smoke. I think they don't feel to live a healthy life and to enjoy its beauty.

 

You can say it's purely addiction, every day the smoker need more dose of nicotine. I agree with abh saying one need to divert his mind, keep him/herself busy in other things and strong will power which can only help to quit it.

@GeeOne:
Yes You are right will power is best tool to quit smoking.

 

I am a smoker since 2003 and I also realized that it's have too much bad effect for health. I tried so many times but can't...it' too tough !!!

 

This thread is having very good comments and views on smoking and quitting it. Hope this is read by many members.

This can spread awareness.

Smoking is injures to health. so stop smoking.

 

By reading your thread Stefan it seems as you were in hurry while writing this. Anyway Everybody knows that it is injurious to health and what are the harms they can face by smoking but still they smoke so question is how they can quit smoking? The problem is clear just need of its solution. We are telling the people that don't go on this way there can be many dangers while traveling on this way but we should also tell them the right way. It is always easy to tell the dangers of some special routes but greatness comes when we show the right path on which other can travel safely and can reach on their destination.. Hope I have cleared my point.

 

Oh, here are statistics. This can really help.

Nice share.

G!

 

Now here is who smokes more?

 

Smoking is nearly impossible to quit. I'm amazed by people that are able to.

 

Addiction differs from person to person, some handle it better.

 

I am using a a e-cig and have not smoked a regular cigarette since July of 2011

 

The chemicals in e-cigs aren't that healthy either.

i remember watching this youtube video on stoping smoking by the thai people.
it showed two kids asking adults who are smoking for a light.
the adults were SHOCKED and advising the kids that they shouldn't smoke.
in the end it was just a stop smoking campaign.
The idea is, we know it's bad but why are we still doing it.

 

The chemicals in the e-cig are much safer than the regular cigarette but they are not totally safe. The big tobacco companies are spreading lie's about e-cigs so they can keep there tobacco industry alive..

 

Tried e cig. I smoked a lot more and didnt even enjoyed it.

 

No smoking day is falling on 31st May, we are discussing this issue on right time.
