#title#Non-Smokers Unite#/title# I am a non-smoker or should I say recovering smoker for over ten years. I live in California where you can actually get a ticket for smoking while walking down the street. My family lives in Texas and I was there for a visit and realized how many people still smoke. My sister who I love and adore needs to just stop smoking. Of course she says there is not an easy way to quit smoking.#break# #title#Smokers Smell#/title# I guess for her it just seems normal. I try not to be rude but she stinks. I have thought about buying her stop smoking aids but I think it would offend her. She lives with my mom who is getting older and hates the smoke. The deal is no smoking in the house. I do remember that quitting smoking was not easy.#break# #title#Smokers Crave#/title# The hardest time for me to not crave a cigarette was after dinner. Really anytime I ate triggered a desire to smoke when finished. When I was little I remember my parents smoking. They both figured out how to stop smoking before they were forty. My mom hated that I picked up the habit. When I finally made the call to her after many years of using cigarettes I was proud to say mom, I finally did it I figured out how to quit smoking.#break# #title#I did it!#/title# My mom was thrilled. She was very supportive, I of course was crabby at first but now I am so grateful. My asked if I had needed any quit smoking aids - I said not at this time. I decided to stop smoking now and once I made that decision I stuck to it.#break# #title#There are Ways#/title# Now everyone cannot just declare they want to quit smoking now and really stay off the nicotine. There are many alternatives such as hypnosis, stop smoking drugs, and books. I try every time I see my sister to sway her to the non-smokers side of the street. I believe there is a way to quit smoking out there for her. The desire to stop has to come from her and not her big sis pushing it on her.#break# #title#Cigarettes Sold#/title# I see over the counter stop smoking aids and quit smoking aids at most drug stores and grocery stores. I also see most of the same stores selling cigarettes. Usually cartons or packs of cigarettes are behind the counter so you have to ask for them.#break# #title#Smokers Realize#/title# Dont people realize they need to quit smoking now and not wait until they have lung or heart problems. I want to shout from the rooftops that I know how to quit smoking. However I do not because I do not want to shove my ideals on to someone else. Instead I will write them for the world to see.#break# #title#Join Me#/title# So if I know how can I get others to join me and commit to the idea and stop smoking? If it was simple to do I think more smokers would stop. Maybe there should be a movement and we can march down the street shouting stop smoking now to all that will listen.#break# #title#Look for a Way#/title# Most people look for an easy way to quit smoking. I have found stop smoking programs that do work they even guarantee your money back if you do not find a way to quit smoking.#break# #title#Smokers Quit#/title# I will say that quitting smoking is not easy. I will say that as a recovering non-smoker I am sensitive to those who do smoke and most smokers do not appreciate a non-smoker pointing out the error of their ways. So how to stop smoking I believe is a personal decision but can truly be supported by our families, friends, and communities.#break#
