If you can persuade me to stop smoking now you can have 10 points!? -

If you can persuade me to stop smoking now you can have 10 points!? -

Grow a backbone.

trying to pawn the responsibility onto random people you don-t even know on YA... sheesh. you know why to quit. just frigging do it.if you have asked the question then you have taken first steps of quitting . NO ONE in the world can PERSUADE you to stop , if YOU have not got the will power to stop you will always smoke and POSSIBLY have a STRONG chance of DIEING a slow crappy death . not to mention the poor health you will endure between now and then .Quite frankly you-ve probabally seen the pictures of lung cancer, oral cancer, The heart and the other disgusting pictures of what smoking does to the body.

You probabally understand the effect second hand smoking does to your loved ones in putting them at risk of the same diseases and their ability to care for you once you yourself get those diseases.

If you can-t persuade yourself what do you really expect us to do for you?Smoking can hook you because cigarettes contain nicotine which is highly addictive. But being hooked is not an excuse why you cannot quit smoking it just means you don-t have the motivation nor will power to stop yourself, like a fat person who can-t lose weight, because they are lazy. My friends always say they will quit but they end up smoking on weekends it makes them look so weak. They give themselves excuses to keep smoking -oh its the weekend- its because they really want to smoke. If your one of the weak people then keep giving yourself excuses not to quit, your only hurting yourself in the end but if you know your better than that, a stupid lil chemical stick is controlling your life, than prove you are better than it, even if it affects your social life in the end everyone who smokes around you will envy you. Smoking has been proven by several researches to be great threat to one-s health, that is why there is no reason why one who is already hooked to it should not quit smoking.

Why quit smoking?

There are at least five reasons why you should quit smoking.

* First, if you quit smoking, you will definitely live longer and better.

* Second, each time you smoke, you take about 5 to 20 minutes off your life. Your chance of getting lung cancer, stroke or heart attack increases if you don-t quit smoking.

* Third, the people you live with, especially the children, will be healthier only if you stop smoking. In fact, second hand smoke is more dangerous than the actual smoke users get from smoking.

* Fourth, if you quit smoking, you will have extra money to spend on other things than cigarettes.

* And lastly, if you’re pregnant, chances of having a healthier baby is more likely if you quit smoking.Ok if you don-t wanna quit nobody can persuade you but visit this site.

www.whyquit.org

It is a free site dedicated to helping quitters stay clean. I quit in January and this was a great help to me. You already know the negatives to smoking so there is no point of me listing cancer etc and you know there are zero positives. What you may not realise is that the first 3 days are the hardest and so if you can hold out that long it gets easier and easier. I feel great now, quitting was the best decision I ever made. I know I will always be an ex smoker so I have a higher risk of relapse than a never smoker but as the website says so long as I don-t take a puff today I will not relapse.

Be strong visit the site and go for it now. There is never a better time now is always the right time. I wish you the best and hope you go for it you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Good luckMy lovely second husband died from lung cancer at the age of 45.
By the time he stopped smoking (after a pneumonectomy) it was too late.
Does that put you off???
He lived 21 months after that and although a self employed graphic designer he refused a couple of lucrative offers to do with ads for tobacco companies!If you can-t persuade yourself, old son, there-s no point in our trying to.

Some people just can-t do it, which is a shame but there you are. I-m sorry if you-re in that situation because it reminds me of my own father who tried time and again to give it up and eventually died of lung cancer at the age of 63, having been vaguely unwell for years.

Do please try.Get an Empty Frame for a photograph . Next to it lies your pack of incense sticks ( cigarettes / cigar-s ) . Whenever you feel like smoking , look into the empty frame and see your picture stuck inside it . In 10 days time , you will have quit smoking for good .

If you are always on a move get a small frame that fits in your pocket . While travelling , you get an urge , remove the frame and stare into it .

The very best to you .One day my husband-s aunt was diagnosed with a Brain Tumor, she smokes 3 packs a day, one right after the other. Maybe I a 5 minute break in between. Do you know what the doctor told her. He said her LUNGS looked WORSE Than her BRAIN on a Good Day. And that if it wasn-t for the tumor in her brain, he-d rather replace her lungs. She is very thick headed and has suggested that we throw ciggarettes in her coffin but where she is going, she said she doesnt- need any -Matches-.It makes your breath, clothes and hair STINK. It costs you a fortune. You could be spending that money on buying nice things for yourself and having a better quality of life. If you carry on, your fingers will become nicotine-stained, and I don-t need to list the health implications, I-m sure you know all about those already.Every cigarette you smoke you loose 11 minutes of your life.Reducing the risk of getting life-threatening diseases like lung cancer
Reducing the risk of disability from chronic illness
Improving your general health so you get fewer colds and minor illnesses
Helping you to heal more quickly making medication work better
Reducing the risks associated with surgeryThe very next time you inhale, that-ll be the one that gives you cancer. So far you-ve gotten away with it - that-s just luck...the next one - you-ll die.Did you know that smoking is neuroprotective? You might get cancer, but you-ll NEVER get Parkinson-s.
