She had been smoking for 25 years, averaging a pack a day, but it was the words of a child that helped one Rankin Inlet resident drop the habit for good.
SA国际影视传媒淚 tried quitting quite a few times before that,SA国际影视传媒� recalled the resident, who preferred to remain anonymous while sharing her personal story.
A young person in her life had learned at school about smoking and the damage it can do. She was then asked a difficult question.
SA国际影视传媒淭he child asked why ISA国际影视传媒檓 trying to die and leave them,SA国际影视传媒� she recalled. SA国际影视传媒淚 felt very guilty and uncomfortable. It made me really think.SA国际影视传媒�
Still, it wasnSA国际影视传媒檛 easy to quit based on that alone. She tried to give up the habit right away but spent the next two years bouncing between different treatment options, such as Nicorette.
SA国际影视传媒淣one of them worked on me, so after two years of trying, I just picked a date to give it a shot to go cold turkey,SA国际影视传媒� she recalled. SA国际影视传媒淭hatSA国际影视传媒檚 the only thing that worked for me.SA国际影视传媒�
ItSA国际影视传媒檚 been six-and-a-half years since sheSA国际影视传媒檚 smoked now.
SA国际影视传媒淚 feel better, just generally feel better,SA国际影视传媒� she said about the positive effects since. SA国际影视传媒淚 still get tempted in social settings, but other than that, I really donSA国际影视传媒檛 like the smell anymore.SA国际影视传媒�
She tries not to preach to those around her to follow her lead, though.
SA国际影视传媒淚 just know how hard it is to quit, and how itSA国际影视传媒檚 a personal choice and people need to decide for themselves,SA国际影视传媒� she said. SA国际影视传媒淣obody can do it for them, so I just let it be. People are going to do what theySA国际影视传媒檙e going to do.SA国际影视传媒�
Her words of advice for those on a similar journey: SA国际影视传媒淒onSA国际影视传媒檛 give up. Sometimes it takes many, many tries to quit.SA国际影视传媒�
In the territorySA国际影视传媒檚 2019-2020 Tobacco Control and Smoke-Free Places Act annual report, tobacco use rates showed a territory-wide 74 per cent among people ages 12 and up, with some communities reaching as high as 84 per cent, significantly higher than the national rate.
According to that report, smoking tobacco increases the risk of developing tuberculosis by a rate of 3.5 times.
And itSA国际影视传媒檚 not just a personal issue. According to nuquits.ca, cigarette butts are the most common litter in the world and take about 18 months to break down and then 12 years to completely degrade.
In Nunavut, retailers cannot sell tobacco to anyone under the age of 19, SA国际影视传媒測et many young people still get tobacco through social sources,SA国际影视传媒� writes nuquits.ca, which include parents and family members.
Regardless of the age of the giver or even with a caregiverSA国际影视传媒檚 permission, it is against the law to provide tobacco to anyone younger than 19 years old.
For Tobacco Reduction Month, the Department of Health is encouraging Nunavummiut to start the new year by quitting tobacco.
According to a news release from the department, within two days of quitting, food tastes better and smell improves; in three days, lungs relax and breathing becomes easier; within six months, those who quit will have more energy; and after one year tobacco-free, the risk of a heart attack is half that of someone who smokes.
Nunavummiut can message a counsellor on the Tobacco Has No Place Here Facebook page or call 1-866-368-7848 at any time.
Medications are also available to address cravings and withdrawal from nicotine, such as patches, gum, lozenges, mouth sprays or inhalers. A health centre or pharmacy can offer advice on accessing these products.
