What's Wrong With Nicotine #33

High school students who were lured into smoking with friends because they thought it was “cool” are featured. They have since learned otherwise, and are now anxious to share their new understanding of nicotine addiction with their peers. Liz, an athletic high school cyclist, tells a compelling story of quick decline into addiction after “casually” smoking with friends. She offers her “embarrassing” experience—reduced endurance, breathing trouble, dropping out of the season’s big race, disappointing her team—and tells how quickly she became hooked—an unhappy surprise! Showing strength and resolve, she admits: “I’ve always had crazy, strong will power, but nicotine got the best of me...and it was not worth it. I’m fighting back, but it’s no easy ride.”Students in a smoking cessation class add their horror stories about nicotine addiction. No one saw it coming. All were surprised how quickly they were “hooked.” All agree: What’s wrong with nicotine? It tricks you. It addicts you…then the poisons in tobacco tar attack your organs. The group leader, a Tobacco Prevention Specialist, sums it up: “Strong, intelligent people get hooked and stay on this drug. It’s insidious.” A psychiatrist describes the physiological effects of nicotine on the brain. “The voice in your head telling you to smoke—that’s the craving, the addiction. Your brain physically changes. It needs the drug to feel okay.”Debi, a laryngectomy patient who also suffers from emphysema, still smokes! Her riveting story shows how much people can sacrifice to tobacco use. “I’m down to three cigarettes a day. Once it grabs hold and takes control of you, it’s extremely difficult to kick,” she laments, encouraging students NOT TO START in the first place. No one plans on nicotine addiction, yet millions pay the consequences for smoking. What’s Wrong With Nicotine teaches the facts to students who are at risk because of their innocence. It shows how extremely unhealthy nicotine is. It convinces teens that despite what they think, MOST of them DON’T smoke. The program steers them away from trying cigarettes and puts them on track to good health and future success.
