Cigarette smoking and alcohol consumption
is just another problem after HIV and AIDS that needs as much attention as we
did to the HIV and AIDS just immediately it was discovered.
A lot has been done about the problem but
most of it has just been verbal and then victims of these habits have mostly
been left to decide for themselves whether to quit the habit or to continue
with it.
There is something funny about this people
who are hooked to the habit, they go about giving lame excuses and reasons why
they continue consuming this things .They give reasons that only favors them to
continue consuming this things .They pretend that this things perhaps helps
them to think better or helps them to clear their heads from congestion due to
a lot of work or activity or they help to keep them warm from the cold weather
and so on. This people, perhaps, the doctors look like fools before them.
The stories about smoking and drinking
alcohol are many and long ,but there is only one secret that the ministry of
health and the world health organization hasn’t discovered ,the secret is using
those people who have been In the habit before and manage to escape un hurt or
even those who have been there and had harm from the habits .The thing is that
those who have been there and managed to quit the habits have firsthand
knowledge on how to nurse someone who is trying to escape from the bonds of the
habits than the biological information that the doctor might be having .They
know the weak points in the addicts and can point it out for you and advice you
on what to do in order to help them when the urge to go for another dose of the
stuff is overpowering them .They know it all ,just ask them .
The thing is that for a healthy person, it
is the urge for fun that drives them to go in search of it and the so they find
themselves going for them ignorantly, they don’t know anything about the
goodness or the badness of consuming this things and to stop them is always
very difficult ones they have discovered that it is there that they can find
the happiness that they want in their lives, and that is getting drunk. It is
always very hard to persuade them to stop or change from the habit and for
those who are already trapped in the habits, it is very hard to make them to
turn away from it.
Therefore to help an addict, there is only
one secret and those who have been in the habit will bear me witness .this
people are somehow blind and they cannot see or sense what is going on in their
environments and it is only the pain in their bodies after they have got hurt
by the habits that makes them aware of what is going on around them, otherwise,
nothing can distract their attention from this things.
So ,if we wanted to help an addict ,we will
have to sacrifice a lot .We will have to forget all the benefits and goodness
of this things to us and just save people’s lives .So ,this blind people who
have been carried away from reality in life and out of this world we will have
to make the consumption of this things illegal so that the law can hold their
hands from going for them against their will .We have been there and we know
.Those who have started seeing the first signs of the side effects of using
this things sometimes find it difficult to hold themselves from going for
another dose and holding their hands from taking another dose is the best thing
that someone can do for this kind of people. They always wish that someone
should have stopped them before they got hurt after they have gone and cannot
come back .Believe it or not ,but that is how things look like in that world
,they cannot stop it on their own and they only know when they are already
dying.
Otherwise, for those who are already
addicted and cannot find any happiness in life in this world without hiding behind
the effects of this things, the secret is always an understanding friend who
can hold their hands for them from reaching for another dose when they need
some more of it .This is all that there is in helping an addict.
The problem can be doing this to the
millions of them .If the ministry of health can find for a way of doing this to
this people then we will heal the whole country .This way the victims are
supposed to gain the power to say NO to this things in not more than a month.
It is a very effective method of helping addicts ,you just keep them away from
the drugs for some time until they gain the power to live without using them
and then you help them to spread the word that they have stopped using them so
that those who are still in the habit cannot continue sharing with them .They
are supposed to gain this power in not more than three months after which they
will be walking alone and continue gaining the power to turn away anymore from
the drugs that may be offered to them by friends who might still be in the
habit.
After the above has happened successfully,
you will then help to heal their psychology by helping them to find alternative
ways of spending their time or tackling their life’s problems but not to hide
behind the effects of drugs .Make a schedule for them that will last them the
whole twelve hours of the day and then at night they will be asleep at home and then make sure that there
is enough activity of that kind daily.
Idleness and lose of hope due to being
unable to accomplish some of life’s compulsory achievements are just but some
of the causes of such severe psychological problems which results in severe
addictions sometimes. There are some of us who got in to the habit due to
reasonable causes and others who just found themselves in it due to ignorance
whichever way, this is the most effective way of stopping using the drugs and
then science can go on from there. Substituting them with others fairer ones is
no help, it is better to stop completely.
