An expression that can be interpreted as a warning to active and passive smokers. The point is smoking is a process of accelerating towards death, because smoking can make a person not realize that one of his organs is slowly being damaged due to nicotine, the tar contained in cigarettes.

And of course the consequences it causes can make someone think that by smoking he invites us not only for himself but for other people who are often said to be passive smokers. Whatever the consequences it causes is something that should be watched out for, especially now based on research conducted by health institutions that there are many deaths caused by smoking. So that the word smoking can kill, is not a word that is just a figment of the imagination.

What are the main reasons why people become addicted to smoking?

various reasons why people are addicted to cigarettes, I tried to explore from several perspectives, namely:

• At first there was a factor that a person who was more mature gave cigarettes several times, so this beginner felt that smoking a cigarette was a way of saying he was an adult. This is often experienced by children who are about twelve years old.

• There is an attractive advertisement about smokers, say someone becomes more powerful when smoking cigarettes, the advertisement is very tempting so that anyone will be interested in seeing and trying it and in the end they will feel addicted to cigarettes.

• There are people who smoke cigarettes because of necessity, say that person smoking has become a necessity that if they don't smoke they will feel dizzy, even the food they eat will taste bitter so that people like this will feel addicted.

Are you addicted to smoking, or someone you may know have addicted to smoking? What changing have you seen after addiction?

I'm not addicted to cigarettes, but I'm trying to give an example of a former co-worker, when we were both employees. He was an accountant who worked with computers at that time, very limited operating skills. When he works at the computer he smokes cigarettes non-stop, even from morning until just before recess in the afternoon.

It is said that by smoking cigarettes the work is very smooth, although sometimes the work must be done by people who really understand what is being done regarding accounting.

That way he can work with very satisfying results, but when he quits smoking the results are not good. His body will get bigger when he stops smoking but his appetite increases which makes it difficult for him to move, not agile anymore.

What should we do to reduce the rate of smoking addiction?

To reduce the feeling of addiction to young people or adolescents, it is necessary to socialize about the dangers of smoking and the long-term effects that arise for active and passive smokers, while for people who are already addicted, slowly but surely they will reduce smoking by chewing candy or adjusting it as needed. . A simple example is if someone who really cannot free himself from smoking after eating, it is recommended to smoke just one stick after eating and slowly the dependence on cigarettes can be removed.

Reducing smoking continuously, for example, after consuming two packs a day, it is reduced to just one pack, and then half a pack can even be replaced with chewing candy or other objects that can at least reduce addiction to cigarettes.
