Same Addiction with Different Result

in ASEAN HIVE COMMUNITY3 days ago

Hi, I am Arveno and i am from Surabaya city Indonesia. I want to make content about my concern lately. Maybe around 1,5 years ago. I feel that my lifestyle is not good at all. I am still vaping and lack of excersise. And sometimes i dont know it is really my body that got sick or it just my delusion in my head that warn me about my body gotten weak. Sometimes my body gives signal like hurt little bit in chest, or sometimes my neck is super stiff, sometimes i am choughing without any symptoms. FYI, in my country mostly man are smoker. And little that i know people having healthy life. From diet until habbit. Lets say this is because of addiction. Smoke is really addiction. Once you feel the nicotin inside the body. It start to addict and make the mind want more of smoke. The cooling down sensation is really pleasing. I know that because i am smoker from highschool. Maybe i am smoking around 17 years. Thats pretty bad. It makes my body not shape enough and make me super lazy to do anything. And the worst part is my lung cannot inhale much of oxygen at that time. But, at that time i still decline about my healthy. Same with vaping. I am trying vaping because i want to try it. My friend introduce me to vaping. The addiction is similar but vaping is heavier. As far as i know the liquid contain 30mg Nicotin each 30 Ml liquid. So, it will be 1 drop 1 mg Nicotine. And it is very hard to cleanse this nicotine in our body. My experience stopping vape is worse than stopping smoke. When i started to stop smoking, the addict sensation is for first week after stopping. Yeah it is hard to controlling emotion at that time. Since my body and my mind still want it and my brain and consciousness need to stop. This rejection of want to smoke is really hurt. Both body and heart. It feels like the first time broken heart. Almost same. But, after 10 days. The addcition started to gone little by little and my body getting used without any nicotine. And after a month, my body rejecting all smoke habbit. Even the smoke from people who smoking. It will make my head dizzy and coughing. Compared to smoke. Vaping is really different. Today when i am writing this content FYI i am free from vaping around 5 months. And the addiction still sticky to my mind. Sometimes, my mouth and my brain still want it. Thats different with smoke. Really, vaping is much more addicting. I dont know much about what the effect of vaping.Some people and journal said that vaping is much better than smoking. But, the best is not doing both of this bad habbit. It is no use at all. It will make body and mind to be lazy and wont do anything except vaping or smoking.

However, there is one more addiction that people not aware. This addicition is make us healthier and can adding longevity in our life. That is Workout, especially muscle train at gym. Workout is opposite effect of addcition compared to smoke and vaping. Most people dont want to workout because they dont want to feel weak and hurt by DOMS. And yeah it is my hestitate to starting workout. But, once after routine doing workout. It really addicted. Way more addict than smoke and vaping. What i feels after almost 6 month routine doing workout only in lifting dumbbells, I feel guilty if i am not doing workout. And if i am not doing workout,something missing in my heart. And my body started to moving by itself and started nervous and craving to moving. And after a while the pain that want to avoid, it will be the one that will be missing it. It will feel strange if the body not get hurt by DOMS at all.
Yeah i am still feeling DOMS everyday. But, it is not like in the first time doing it. It just stingy little bit. Sometimes i cannot move the muscles if i am adding more weight or change the way i do it.

So, both of this habbit is really addicted. But, the results are really different. Smoking or vaping can led to Cancer, Lung Disease,Lazynes, Diabetic, Hypertension,etc that will make the lifespan are shorten. In contrary, Workout can led to relieve stress, well sleep,longevity, and avoiding the chance of sickness. Both are same. Smoke and vaping really hard to stop, Workout really hard to start. And once do it, it will never turn back.

My husband was not the smoking type, but sometimes because of some group of people that surrounds him, he gave in to the vice and would sometimes sneak smoking. He knows that I am against that. My father is a heavy smoker and I don't want that in a Husband. Not only does it harm their body but others as well. He quickly stopped though but then came the vaping. His officemate would give him vapes and it lasted for how many months. I would throw them when I saw those. He hides it but I always find it. Luckily he quit that too because I am always warning him of the dangers.

try workout, for me it is working. the dophamine that comes out from workout is bigger than from smoking and vaping

I will tell him to do that. He has been telling me to join the gym but has never found the time and opportunity with all the things that needs to be done.

@arveno I think that is really self control to avoid those negative addiction that leads to unhealthy lifestyle. But my husband do smoking. I do all strategies and things in order for him to stop but I failed. I think it is really part of his routine but I'm glad that he smoke lesser than the past years.

@arveno that's what I want to provoke that he should stop just for our kids. But I see lesser improvement. But everyday I'm going for his change like what you did in your life decisions

Staying on track requires discipline, and even though it's tough, that consistent effort no matter how small in the long run will truly pay off. 😊

The decision to write this down is a conscious effort to combat your nicotine addiction. When you accepted the fact that you are a nicotine addict and wanted to put a stop to it, it was truly a commendable fact. I cannot actually hold you accountable for your addiction, as you mentioned that the majority of men in your place are engaging in this behaviour. Now that you're cleansing and have halted the use of it, I'm optimistic that this progress will persist. You've got this!

Even though sometimes i want to relapse especially when the pressure in life is so hard. But, yeah better wearing socks and shoes and then going for a walk or jogging. Both will exhausting my body and my mind. But run or walk make my body better than smoke

I understand. But I'm cheering you on for a healthy lifestyle. Your friends, family, and neighbours might actually benefit from the changes you are making. But above all, your future self is already thanking you for making a bold decision. I understand that this decision can be challenging, but adopting a mindset similar to your current one will help you avoid any relapses. Know that your write-up will surely inspire others to take that first step, too. You are doing great and winning on this already! Keep it up!
