Step 1
Please read text below carefully!
Never Try Smoking
A lot of people, especially
teenagers, who do not smoke, always want to try smoking. They know it is bad
for them and all, but it is just something they want to try. So they ask one of
their smoker friends for a cigarette. Admittedly, they firstly can not light it
on their own so they ask his friend to do it. Then they inhale that cigarette
and smoke occasionally.
Apparently that makes them the born
smokers. Now they do smoke fairly regularly. They can not avoid smoking
and they enjoy too. They have smoker friends. Everyday they bring a pack in
their pocket. For them, a pack of cigarette is as important as a wallet for
their money.
Suddenly, for certain reason, they
realize the fact that tobacco is the cause of a long list of nasty diseases. It
is not only heart disease, stroke, and chronic lung disease but also bladder,
lung, and pancreatic cancer. Even it was reported that around 400,000 Americans
died each year. It was one every 80 seconds from tobacco-related illnesses.
Then they decide it is stupid to
harm selves. They want to quit smoking. Unfortunately, they find that quitting
smoking is so difficult. “Why can't I stop smoking? I really want to stop it”.
It is hard to quit because nicotine is powerfully addictive. Cigarette is one
of the most efficient drug-delivery devices ever devised. As result,
when people try to quit smoking, they often experience classic nicotine
withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, irritability, headache, depression, and restlessness.
Well, still want to try smoke? Think
the facts before trying! If you are not smoker, you should never and never try
to smoke.
