Hello friends regards to everyone it's a pleasure to have you on my post, I'm engaging in this amazing Contest to give out my best.
Do you smoke or know someone close to you who is addicted to smoking? Tell us about him.
No, I don't smoke but I do know people who are into smoking (peer group influence) most of 'em normally use herbs and sprinkle them into their meals and eat, so the people that I about have their hideout where they smoke called it to bonk when they smoke they feel like top boys and I also say that tell some of them that as a young boy using their money to buy loud is waste of revenue.
But they always say that they want to be on cloud nine the highest mood, smoke say they smoke when they're depressed so they can forget about their problems but after smoking problems still mount them.
I won't advise any youth to smoke because smoking will make you look wreck less money you would have used to eat but since smoking has taken over you it's hard to resist it, prevention is better than cure.
Do you know why and how people become addicted to cigarette smoking?
In my own opinion, I will say the reason why people get addicted to Cigarettes is because of the presence of nicotine in tobacco. Nicotine is a very dangerous and highly addictive chemical, and also tobacco leaves are used to produce products like cigarettes that can be smoked or taken pipe, so when smokers smoke cigarettes the highly addictive chemical runs to their brains, and the brain will generate feelings in their body that will make the smoker be on the best mood of his life, feeling as if his on top of the world feeling untouchable.
After that, the brain will start controlling the whole body and when the nicotine is too much for the brain it cannot resist it which makes the addicted to cigarettes.
In Nigeria most youths are not only addicted to cigarettes there are other hard drugs like Colos, Igbo, loud, etc...
Tell us about the negative impacts of smoking on one's mental and physical health.
Is said that everything that has advantages also has disadvantages I'm trying to say that smoking also has a positive impact but that is not the question, smoking has many deadly impacts on someone's health smoking can causes,
- Heart disease
- Lung diseases
- cancer, diabetes
- stroke, diabetes
Smoking increases the risk of tuberculosis and also dysfunction of the immune system and rheumatoid arteritis.
And nicotine is included, nicotine also makes the arterial wall hard, which may cause heart attack, I always ask myself if smokers don't see all these negative impacts before they start smoking, the cigarette is like seeing a car moving at high speed then you run in front of the car and which the car will knock you out, why I'm saying that because they have an idea that cigarette is deadly but they will still smoke it.
How can you guide someone to quit smoking and come back to his normal life?
I will say I've no idea about this question but I will advise the person to see a therapist who will be of help to him, the therapist will know the best for the person but I know is very difficult for someone to quit smoking but it's possible to quit smoking, Say No To Smoking.
