If you been with us since
the start of this program,
00:00:01.96\00:00:03.30
I'm sure you are
beginning to wonder how much
00:00:03.33\00:00:04.67
longer is this withdrawal
process going to last?
00:00:04.80\00:00:07.07
At the most you
have one more difficult
00:00:07.30\00:00:09.20
day of physical symptoms.
00:00:09.40\00:00:10.87
Now we are going to tackle,
00:00:11.07\00:00:12.41
the long term
prospects for success.
00:00:12.51\00:00:14.84
How to keep on keeping off?
00:00:15.04\00:00:16.58
Don't miss this program.
00:00:16.78\00:00:18.21
Well we must have somebody here
00:00:49.61\00:00:52.81
that wants to talk to
me tonight. Where are they?
00:00:53.05\00:00:55.78
Where are my selectees,
here comes one walking
00:00:58.42\00:01:03.12
right down here, oh good!
00:01:03.32\00:01:05.39
Again selected at
random come on up sir.
00:01:05.59\00:01:08.50
Hi, how are you
doing? What's your name? Pat.
00:01:12.53\00:01:15.17
Pat, how much sure
you used to smoking
00:01:15.40\00:01:18.11
Pat before you
came to this program?
00:01:18.31\00:01:20.24
Less than a pack a
day. Less than a pack a day,
00:01:20.78\00:01:23.18
what made you decide that was
00:01:23.31\00:01:24.68
a good thing to get rid off?
00:01:24.88\00:01:26.21
My wife kind a convince
me. Your wife convinced you?
00:01:26.25\00:01:30.49
Are you quitting smoking
for wife or for yourself?
00:01:31.52\00:01:34.46
Both, mainly for myself
but, when my wife decide
00:01:34.66\00:01:38.66
to quit I fear it was good time
00:01:38.86\00:01:40.26
as anything for me to quit to.
00:01:40.46\00:01:41.80
Yeah, very important,
it's nice to get your wife
00:01:42.76\00:01:45.03
to get you started, but in
the end it must be for you,
00:01:45.23\00:01:47.50
because you see if
you quit for your wife
00:01:47.70\00:01:50.11
or you quit for your
kids, sooner or later
00:01:50.34\00:01:54.01
you will get mad
at your wife right?
00:01:54.21\00:01:55.61
And now you don't know how
to get even with her right?
00:01:57.01\00:01:59.41
So it's very important
that you make the transition,
00:02:00.35\00:02:02.98
but the main person
you are quitting for,
00:02:03.18\00:02:05.32
they are only two
people I think you are fit
00:02:05.52\00:02:07.12
to quit for,
yourself and your God,
00:02:07.32\00:02:09.26
because those are you
shouldn't get mad right?
00:02:10.69\00:02:14.03
Sure! And if you
get mad at yourself,
00:02:14.26\00:02:16.16
that's not really
good, you need to keep
00:02:16.36\00:02:20.30
yours' ego system intact well.
00:02:20.50\00:02:23.14
How is the program
been going for you?
00:02:23.34\00:02:24.97
It's terrific. I have a
very little discomfort at all.
00:02:25.17\00:02:28.64
I had a little
disorientation, and I was tired
00:02:28.84\00:02:33.01
for while but that's going way?
00:02:33.21\00:02:35.38
But I feel great. Was it easier
00:02:35.62\00:02:37.59
then you thought it would be?
00:02:37.79\00:02:39.12
If I knew it was
gonna be this easy
00:02:39.15\00:02:40.86
I would've quit a long time ago.
00:02:41.02\00:02:42.36
Oh. It seems like
there are lot of others
00:02:44.23\00:02:48.16
out there that having a
little tougher time of it.
00:02:48.36\00:02:52.63
Well I think it's
because of the program itself
00:02:52.80\00:02:55.20
I have never seen
anything like this,
00:02:55.40\00:02:57.44
a public education
part of it, I quit on my own
00:02:57.61\00:03:01.41
one time and it was a nightmare.
00:03:01.58\00:03:05.55
And I lasted about 20
months and I went back to
00:03:05.78\00:03:09.18
smoking and I never
quit since then until now.
00:03:09.22\00:03:11.92
But I think the education
part of this is amazing,
00:03:12.15\00:03:17.43
I mean it just
makes so much easier.
00:03:17.63\00:03:19.56
So you've been off
since the first night? Yes.
00:03:19.76\00:03:22.16
Shall we give him a big hand,
00:03:22.36\00:03:23.83
I think that's good.
Thank you, thank you.
00:03:24.03\00:03:27.20
Alright! Let's
come right on up here.
00:03:30.41\00:03:32.27
Hi there! Would you
mind giving us your name?
00:03:35.74\00:03:37.55
My name is Dale Hebert.
00:03:37.71\00:03:39.05
Dale, and how much
were you used to smoking?
00:03:39.08\00:03:40.98
A pack, pack and half.
And where is your button?
00:03:41.18\00:03:44.45
I didn't wear it
at the first night.
00:03:44.62\00:03:46.42
Oh didn't wear it
at the first night?
00:03:46.62\00:03:47.96
No, but now you
deserve on? I think so.
00:03:47.99\00:03:51.53
Two days, two days, but
didn't get one last night?
00:03:52.59\00:03:56.77
No I had to skip last
night. Oh you skip last night.
00:03:57.07\00:03:59.33
Well let me, do you
wondered, Thank you.
00:03:59.57\00:04:03.14
we give you a button here.
00:04:03.34\00:04:06.11
Now that you
are into the program
00:04:09.44\00:04:11.11
how do you feel about it?
00:04:11.31\00:04:12.65
I feel great about the program.
00:04:12.68\00:04:15.02
I still feel pretty
miserable in terms of quitting.
00:04:15.22\00:04:18.29
What symptoms
have you been having?
00:04:18.75\00:04:20.89
Yesterday I was really tired.
00:04:21.32\00:04:23.29
I could not stay
awake for a while.
00:04:23.49\00:04:26.23
I was traveling ordinarily.
I never sleep on a plane,
00:04:26.43\00:04:29.86
I could not stay awake
and so it was kind a tough.
00:04:30.03\00:04:34.44
You feel better today?
00:04:34.64\00:04:35.97
I feel more awake
today, little more anxious.
00:04:36.00\00:04:38.21
Let's take a look
out of the audience.
00:04:38.41\00:04:39.74
Who is waking off,
that feels little awake?
00:04:39.77\00:04:41.74
Oh, oh you see that?
Things are gonna improve.
00:04:41.94\00:04:45.38
I told you that if you
get your rest for three days
00:04:45.55\00:04:48.12
you will be paid back most
of what you old your system
00:04:49.22\00:04:52.19
for more lack of sleep,
chronic fatigue that you get
00:04:52.35\00:04:55.82
on the caffeine
trip. They are coming.
00:04:56.06\00:04:59.06
They are awaking up, right.
00:04:59.26\00:05:00.60
The twinkle is
coming, just look out there
00:05:00.63\00:05:02.33
in a beautiful
group. Oh yeah right.
00:05:02.53\00:05:04.87
Does he sound too
convincing, does he?
00:05:07.04\00:05:09.17
So, you think
this time you are gonna
00:05:12.17\00:05:14.28
put it way and keep it away?
00:05:14.48\00:05:15.81
It think so, yeah
I quit for five years
00:05:15.84\00:05:17.91
and memory search me
I think it was following
00:05:18.11\00:05:20.62
one of our programs at Bomont.
00:05:20.82\00:05:22.45
That was several years ago,
00:05:22.68\00:05:24.02
does I'm gonna Bomont for well.
00:05:24.12\00:05:25.59
Maybe 83 or 84.
And then you went back?
00:05:25.79\00:05:27.56
What don't we gonna
discuss that tonight?
00:05:27.76\00:05:29.79
Can you recall a
situation that took you back?
00:05:29.99\00:05:32.96
To tell the truth,
no. I don't remember
00:05:33.16\00:05:35.80
having an urge to
start smoking again.
00:05:36.00\00:05:38.37
I really don't know why?
00:05:38.60\00:05:39.93
I can probably guess but
we will talk about it later.
00:05:40.84\00:05:43.17
Lets give the man a
big hand. Thank you.
00:05:43.41\00:05:45.11
You have a happy smile, yeah.
00:05:50.58\00:05:52.61
And what is your
name? Diane Hendry.
00:05:53.55\00:05:55.28
Diane and how much
you use to smoking?
00:05:55.32\00:05:57.95
About a pack a week.
00:05:58.19\00:06:00.69
A pack a week,
these people think
00:06:00.89\00:06:04.23
you aren't even a smoker.
00:06:04.43\00:06:05.76
I smoke for about 12 years,
00:06:05.79\00:06:07.26
but you are glad
to get rid of it.
00:06:07.50\00:06:08.83
I quit December 26th. Oh
quit even before the program
00:06:08.96\00:06:12.63
started and you came
for little enforcement?
00:06:12.87\00:06:15.14
Is it helping? Yep,
I'm just kind a nervous
00:06:15.37\00:06:18.17
for some kind of
stressful moment.
00:06:18.37\00:06:20.88
You know I can't wondering now.
00:06:21.08\00:06:22.74
This is not the
time to have one,
00:06:24.51\00:06:26.95
and you feel good
about it? Yeah I do,
00:06:29.38\00:06:33.39
and I feel good
about your quitting.
00:06:33.62\00:06:35.76
Lets give her
big hand, here we go.
00:06:35.96\00:06:37.53
Well I'm talking

00:06:42.50\00:06:44.17
I would like a couple of
people that got off today
00:06:46.00\00:06:49.00

00:07:08.89\00:07:10.23
She don't want to
say. Yeah, 10 years,
00:07:10.39\00:07:14.96
10 years you started real young.
00:07:15.20\00:07:16.93
And how is the
program been going for you?
00:07:18.20\00:07:21.27
Very well, where is
our button? In my coat!
00:07:21.47\00:07:24.11
You are supposed to wear
that with pride. I do, I do.
00:07:26.57\00:07:28.88
Oh you do, oh you do, alright.
00:07:29.08\00:07:30.41
What symptoms that
you have been having?
00:07:30.55\00:07:32.71
Actually I quit the day
after Thanksgiving and I had
00:07:32.91\00:07:35.78
a idea that I met have
rehab so for the holiday.
00:07:35.98\00:07:39.05
So you are here for enforcement
00:07:39.25\00:07:40.59
and you think it's
helping? Very much,
00:07:40.62\00:07:41.96
and how are feeling about
it now? I'm not going back.
00:07:42.76\00:07:47.20
Give her a hand,
really do that thank you.
00:07:47.40\00:07:50.40
Hi. Now just a
minute, weren't you the fellow
00:08:01.01\00:08:05.11
I saw on the hall last night.
00:08:05.31\00:08:06.65
You said I'm a failure
and I'm not coming back or.
00:08:06.68\00:08:09.12
No I actually I had
to go to work last night
00:08:09.32\00:08:11.65
when I was wanted to be here.
00:08:11.85\00:08:15.02
But, I felt like I
failed myself yesterday because
00:08:15.22\00:08:17.69
I smoked one yesterday
and maximum stress day at work
00:08:17.89\00:08:23.63
and I snatched a cigarette
00:08:23.87\00:08:26.84
from your wife
as matter of fact.
00:08:27.04\00:08:28.70
Where is his
wife, she is not here?
00:08:30.34\00:08:32.04
No she is here she is a wimp.
00:08:32.24\00:08:33.61
Alright! Yeah, but maybe,
but I made it, you made it.
00:08:33.84\00:08:42.55
And I wanna my pin now.
00:08:42.72\00:08:44.05
Thank you. Let's
give him a big hand.
00:08:50.66\00:08:55.03
Man, you ready for mine,
00:09:04.37\00:09:06.41
I'm ready for mine
too. What's your name?
00:09:06.64\00:09:07.98
Sue Murray, Sue and
you just little slow
00:09:08.01\00:09:12.11
learner or you just.
00:09:12.31\00:09:13.88
I couldn't stop in the
car. I would have one on
00:09:14.08\00:09:16.75
the way to work
and one on the way home
00:09:16.95\00:09:18.45
and you pep talk last night.
00:09:18.65\00:09:22.12
But where were you
getting those cigarettes?
00:09:22.32\00:09:23.66
I stopped and I bought
a pack, I couldn't stand
00:09:24.46\00:09:27.16
and I had two cigarettes a day.
00:09:28.36\00:09:30.83
But what makes you
decide now that was bad
00:09:30.87\00:09:32.33
and unacceptable behavior.
00:09:32.37\00:09:34.00
Your pep talk last
night, that helped,
00:09:35.10\00:09:37.21
got to me. That
got to you. Yeah.
00:09:37.24\00:09:38.84
That worked. I knew
you for some reason;
00:09:38.87\00:09:42.51
I prayed for you
last night, maybe that
00:09:42.54\00:09:44.31
helped. Well good.
Well so what do you
00:09:44.35\00:09:48.05
think now? I feel
good. Wasn't it as bad
00:09:48.12\00:09:50.55
today as what those
other days true or false?
00:09:50.59\00:09:52.39
No, not wasn't,
that's thing to people have
00:09:52.42\00:09:54.62
to learn you know
it's harder to have one,
00:09:54.66\00:09:56.73
two, or three cigarettes
and that is to have none.
00:09:56.76\00:09:59.16
You got to get
down to zero, zero.
00:09:59.56\00:10:03.57
And you think you
gonna make it this time?
00:10:03.60\00:10:05.47
I know I will not.
Lets give her a big hand,
00:10:05.50\00:10:08.80
good, good.
00:10:10.31\00:10:11.64
Now I'm sure there
is some other here today
00:10:15.41\00:10:17.55

one for the first time,
00:10:17.58\00:10:20.65

what we are doing here.
00:11:23.71\00:11:25.35
Oh just look at that
and give them a big hand,
00:11:27.78\00:11:30.72
would you do that, everybody.
00:11:30.75\00:11:32.82
Let's have a seat, and
just a final little word
00:11:37.26\00:11:42.96
those haven't quite
made that you had do not
00:11:43.00\00:11:45.23
become discouraged. I'm
gonna talk to you tonight.
00:11:45.27\00:11:48.40
Wouldn't it be
nice if we can get 100%?
00:11:50.41\00:11:52.01
Yeah. I think we
are to able to work
00:11:52.41\00:11:54.98
toward 100%, we are
getting close to that.
00:11:55.01\00:11:57.21
I'm sure 90-95% they
are already and just a few
00:11:57.78\00:12:01.58
more of you we got a
do a little something
00:12:01.62\00:12:03.59
to get you over the
hump and I really wanna
00:12:03.62\00:12:06.12
to see that
accomplished. Now we got to get
00:12:06.15\00:12:11.13
right down to
business. Stopping smoking,
00:12:11.16\00:12:15.06
kind a tough? You've
been through quite a bit
00:12:16.56\00:12:21.10
most of you right?
And those of you who have
00:12:21.14\00:12:24.24
been off since the
first day, the good news is,
00:12:24.27\00:12:27.48
the very good news is
that you put in the worst
00:12:27.51\00:12:31.11
of the physiological
stress mechanism. Amen.
00:12:31.91\00:12:35.42
I can guarantee
you that tomorrow
00:12:41.89\00:12:44.59
will be a better day
then you've had so far.
00:12:44.63\00:12:47.63
Now it won't be all
over it, but by and large
00:12:48.46\00:12:51.90
you will have
excreted the nicotine,
00:12:52.20\00:12:54.40
some of you guys start
a little later with day
00:12:54.44\00:12:56.77
or two down the
line, and the worst of the
00:12:56.81\00:13:00.21
physiological
symptoms will be over.
00:13:00.24\00:13:01.88
You will be able
to concentrate at
00:13:02.54\00:13:04.45
work again. You
should be waking up.
00:13:04.48\00:13:07.88
That terrible air
head feeling that you
00:13:09.45\00:13:13.22
complained about
should be going away,
00:13:13.25\00:13:15.49
going away. The
headaches should be disappearing
00:13:15.52\00:13:19.79
and you will become
begin to feel so much
00:13:20.70\00:13:23.80
normal again. Now I
think it's time we begin
00:13:23.83\00:13:28.90
to focus on the
long term, you have heard
00:13:28.94\00:13:33.51
several people
here have you not,
00:13:33.54\00:13:35.04
tell how they
got off, two months,
00:13:35.74\00:13:39.91
five months, five
years. I have seen people go
00:13:40.32\00:13:43.42
back to smoking as
many as 20 years after
00:13:43.45\00:13:46.55
they quit. Now one
of the problems that
00:13:46.59\00:13:51.73
I would like you to
be aware of, sometime
00:13:51.76\00:13:55.56
along about that
you are quitting smoking
00:13:55.60\00:13:57.50
and someone says
to you, oh you are
00:13:57.97\00:14:01.30
quitting smoking. You
know I quit two years ago
00:14:01.34\00:14:04.74
and I still love
to have a cigarette,
00:14:04.77\00:14:06.68
and when they say
that you say to yourself,
00:14:09.04\00:14:11.25
oh my goodness if
I'm gonna feel like this
00:14:11.48\00:14:15.08
in two years forget
it. Now what is important
00:14:15.12\00:14:22.49
for you to do, is
ask them this question,
00:14:22.52\00:14:24.49
do you ever go a
whole day without thinking
00:14:24.73\00:14:28.10
about a cigarette? You
know what they will say?
00:14:28.13\00:14:30.27
Oh sure. But most
people that smoke enjoy it.
00:14:30.63\00:14:35.27
And it's amazing
how as time goes on,
00:14:36.07\00:14:38.67
we tend to forget the
unpleasant and remember
00:14:39.11\00:14:42.08
the pleasant. We had
some friends that used
00:14:42.11\00:14:46.28
to come and visit
us, and the husbands name
00:14:46.31\00:14:49.58
was George, and
his wife and he used to
00:14:49.62\00:14:53.02
come over, and she
spent most of the time
00:14:53.05\00:14:54.96
telling us what a
terrible husband George was.
00:14:54.99\00:14:57.13
But George was a
smoker, and George got
00:14:59.73\00:15:03.53
a stroke and he died.
And his wife still comes
00:15:03.57\00:15:07.57
over to see us occasionally.
00:15:07.60\00:15:08.94
And when she
talks about her husband,
00:15:09.40\00:15:11.07
I frankly wonder
if it's the same man.
00:15:11.77\00:15:13.68
Because he was
the finest, noblest,
00:15:16.61\00:15:20.05
most loving husband
that anybody ever had.
00:15:20.32\00:15:24.39
What happened? You
see she has forgot about
00:15:26.55\00:15:29.39
the unpleasantness
that she used to talk
00:15:29.42\00:15:31.53
so mush about and
all she can remember
00:15:31.56\00:15:33.43
is the pleasant
times they had together.
00:15:33.66\00:15:37.73
Now unfortunately
in a way the same thing
00:15:38.97\00:15:41.40
happens about
your smoking habit.
00:15:41.44\00:15:43.17
As time goes on you
forget about your mouth
00:15:44.77\00:15:49.28
tasting like a
Russian Army Camp there
00:15:49.31\00:15:51.41
overnight. You forget
about the burned clothes,
00:15:51.45\00:15:55.18
the ashes, the
stink, everybody saying get
00:15:55.55\00:15:59.92
that stuff out of
there and you just remember
00:15:59.95\00:16:02.69
those pleasant
times when you said,
00:16:02.72\00:16:04.76
and you had the
nice music, and you relax
00:16:06.03\00:16:09.93
and you've
fulfilled your addiction,
00:16:09.96\00:16:13.77
and God read
the withdrawal pain,
00:16:14.30\00:16:16.60
and it all comes
sweeping back and you think
00:16:16.74\00:16:19.17
how pleasant it was.
But let me tell you this,
00:16:19.21\00:16:24.45
as you stay off
cigarettes the time
00:16:24.48\00:16:26.31
will come, and it
will come quite soon
00:16:26.35\00:16:28.15
When you go whole
days without thinking
00:16:29.78\00:16:32.72
about a cigarette, I promise.
00:16:32.75\00:16:35.32
Sometimes it reminds
me a little bit of the way
00:16:38.53\00:16:42.10
I feel about
mangoes. Mangoes, mangoes,
00:16:42.13\00:16:50.01
you see I and my
family spent five years
00:16:50.41\00:16:54.11
in Pakistan where I
was a Mission Surgeon.
00:16:54.14\00:16:57.38
And in that
tropical country they had
00:16:58.98\00:17:02.12
mangoes, mangoes
delicious, succulent,
00:17:02.78\00:17:08.52
juicy mangoes, my
kingdom for a mango.
00:17:09.02\00:17:12.73
I want a mango,
mango, mango my salivary
00:17:12.76\00:17:15.66
glands are squirting
like this, I need a mango,
00:17:15.70\00:17:18.30
get me a mango.
00:17:18.33\00:17:19.67
But you know what;
I went all day without
00:17:28.84\00:17:31.21
a mango. And you know what,
00:17:31.25\00:17:33.95
I didn't even think
about mangos till I need
00:17:34.15\00:17:36.55
to the illustration
to point out how when
00:17:36.58\00:17:39.45
you think back. Yes
would I love a mango?
00:17:39.49\00:17:42.52
For sure, but
will I get a mango?
00:17:42.69\00:17:45.56
No. And will I survive? Yes.
00:17:46.06\00:17:49.36
And will it spoil my day? No.
00:17:49.40\00:17:52.07
The same thing with
your cigarette habit,
00:17:53.07\00:17:54.90
short order you
will be going whole day
00:17:55.04\00:17:57.37
is without thinking about it.
00:17:57.41\00:17:58.74
But, we need to be
alert, are you listening?
00:17:59.41\00:18:02.81
We need to be
alert, because your brain
00:18:03.35\00:18:08.18
will play tricks on you.
00:18:08.22\00:18:10.45
This is the thing
we have got keep alert.
00:18:16.52\00:18:18.59
Let me tell you a
story. Phone rang one night
00:18:20.00\00:18:22.93
about 10 o'clock.
Hello this is Jim.
00:18:22.96\00:18:26.40
Yes Jim! Remember
me? Which Jim is it?
00:18:26.80\00:18:31.74
Oh I was the fellow
that came to your Stop
00:18:32.94\00:18:35.14
Smoking Clinic
about four months ago.
00:18:35.18\00:18:37.35
Doc, you don't know
how glad I was to be
00:18:38.21\00:18:40.42
off cigarettes. I
was telling everybody
00:18:40.45\00:18:42.85
you got to get to
that Stop Smoking Clinic.
00:18:42.88\00:18:45.05
I was practically an evangelist.
00:18:45.65\00:18:47.56
I was practically
taking away cigarettes
00:18:47.59\00:18:49.62
from people. I
was telling everybody,
00:18:49.66\00:18:51.63
that's the dumbest
habit in all the world.
00:18:51.66\00:18:53.43
I came home one night.
I sat on my easy chair.
00:18:55.36\00:18:58.70
I looked across
the room and there was
00:19:00.94\00:19:03.87
the humidor where I
use to keep my cigarettes.
00:19:03.91\00:19:06.17
I didn't know anybody
kept their cigarettes in a
00:19:06.21\00:19:08.71
humidor, but he did
apparently. And I kept
00:19:08.74\00:19:11.71
thinking, I wonder if I
left any cigarettes in that
00:19:11.75\00:19:14.75
humidor. After
while I got up and
00:19:14.78\00:19:18.45
I went over there
and I opened the humidor.
00:19:18.49\00:19:20.26
Would you believe
it? There in the humidor
00:19:22.66\00:19:25.99
was pack my old
favorite cigarettes, and just
00:19:26.03\00:19:29.13
two cigarettes in it.
00:19:29.16\00:19:30.73
I said to myself, boy
I'm a glad I don't smoke
00:19:32.07\00:19:34.34
anymore. And I
closed the humidor.
00:19:34.37\00:19:37.94
Doc, over the next 24
hours those two cigarettes
00:19:41.14\00:19:43.41
drove me nuts. I
came back the next night.
00:19:43.45\00:19:47.32
I kept looking across the room
00:19:47.35\00:19:50.79
at the humidor. I
said, I wonder if those
00:19:50.82\00:19:54.92
cigarettes are still
there? I finally got up,
00:19:54.96\00:19:59.89
and walked across
the room, and I opened
00:19:59.93\00:20:01.53
the humidor.
Would you believe it?
00:20:01.56\00:20:04.97
They were gone. I
said, I wonder what happened
00:20:05.00\00:20:08.54
to those cigarretes.
I'll bet my wife saw me
00:20:08.57\00:20:12.67
look in there, I
wonder what she did with them.
00:20:12.71\00:20:16.34
Probably threw them in
the trash. Sure enough,
00:20:17.11\00:20:22.12
there in a bottom
of that waste basket,
00:20:23.18\00:20:25.59
was that pack with
two cigarettes in it.
00:20:26.29\00:20:28.22
I said, you know I
have heard that after you
00:20:29.12\00:20:31.89
staop smoking for
while, and you take a puff,
00:20:31.93\00:20:34.30
it will make you
dizzy. I'll bet if I did that
00:20:34.33\00:20:38.07
it would reinforce
my smoking decision.
00:20:38.10\00:20:39.97
So, I lit this cigarette,
and I took a couple of puffs
00:20:41.94\00:20:47.84
and it made me
dizzy. I put it out.
00:20:48.44\00:20:51.05
I stuffed the other
cigarette in my pocket.
00:20:52.21\00:20:53.85
Doc, I'm back to two
packs of cigarettes a day.
00:20:56.25\00:20:58.42
Do you have another
one of those there clinics?
00:20:58.45\00:21:00.49
This is an
unadulterated story that I heard
00:21:03.06\00:21:05.76
on the phone this night.
But I think it illustrates
00:21:05.79\00:21:07.56
the point. Where
did he loose the battle
00:21:07.60\00:21:11.30
with cigarettes? He
lost the battle with
00:21:11.33\00:21:16.20
cigarettes at
least, when he found them
00:21:16.24\00:21:18.24
and he didn't
destroy them you see? Because
00:21:18.27\00:21:22.61
at that moment, what did he
00:21:22.64\00:21:24.01
do? He made provision
to smoke. If he had found
00:21:24.11\00:21:29.28
those cigarettes and said
What are those doing here?
00:21:29.32\00:21:31.95
And wadded them up and
threw them away, he would
00:21:31.99\00:21:33.59
have reinforced his
decision. But now he had
00:21:33.66\00:21:36.93
to go back through this
whole withdrawal process
00:21:36.96\00:21:40.50
again because he let his
brain play tricks on him.
00:21:40.53\00:21:44.87
I want you to be very
alert to these thoughts.
00:21:44.90\00:21:47.60
When a thought
comes to your mind that
00:21:47.90\00:21:50.77
suggests that you
want to make provision
00:21:50.81\00:21:53.34
to smoke, Dont!
Are you listening?
00:21:53.38\00:21:58.18
Be very alert,
because for most people it's
00:21:58.91\00:22:03.39
like being an alcoholic.
00:22:03.42\00:22:04.75
It doesn't take six
packs to put you back
00:22:04.79\00:22:07.19
to smoking. How
many took one cigarette
00:22:07.22\00:22:09.49
and found themselves
back to smoking again?
00:22:09.52\00:22:11.39
Let me see your
hands. That's all about
00:22:11.43\00:22:13.36
it takes, and then
it's two, and then it's four
00:22:13.40\00:22:15.90
and before long, you are
out to buy the whole pack.
00:22:15.93\00:22:18.53
You don't want to go
through this again do you?
00:22:18.57\00:22:20.57
No, no. So keep the
mind alert, the tricks that
00:22:21.77\00:22:27.18
it will try to play
on you. Now it's very
00:22:27.21\00:22:30.95
important that I
explain to you what
00:22:30.98\00:22:33.21
the real risk factors are.
00:22:33.35\00:22:35.42
I went saw a map of it
was back about the time
00:22:39.12\00:22:43.26
of Columbus or something
that had these continents
00:22:43.29\00:22:45.16
loosely drawn on
them and then out here
00:22:45.19\00:22:48.20
where they
didn't know what it was,
00:22:48.23\00:22:49.56
instead on that map
there are dragons here.
00:22:49.60\00:22:52.10
Well believe me there
are dragons out there.
00:22:53.60\00:22:55.50
They are to get
you. What do you think
00:22:57.91\00:23:02.48
is the number one
association that people
00:23:02.51\00:23:05.31
write down as being
associated with they
00:23:05.35\00:23:08.85
going back to
smoking? Somebody says coffee,
00:23:08.88\00:23:13.42
but that isn't the
number one at least on
00:23:13.46\00:23:15.06
the one we got.
Alcohol, alcohol!
00:23:15.09\00:23:17.53
Some alcohol associated
thing takes more people
00:23:17.73\00:23:22.53
for my clinics
back to smoking then
00:23:22.56\00:23:25.43
anything else. It seems
that they get to a party
00:23:25.47\00:23:28.34
they get a glass in one hand,
00:23:28.37\00:23:30.04
and they get a couple of
drinks and the will power
00:23:31.44\00:23:34.51
goes down, and the urge goes up,
00:23:34.54\00:23:37.45
and they were use to
having a glass in that
00:23:37.91\00:23:40.05
hand and a cigarette
in this hand, and somebody
00:23:40.08\00:23:42.95
is there with a
cigarette and they think,
00:23:42.98\00:23:45.25
well I can have
one cigarette tonight.
00:23:45.52\00:23:47.76
I'm okay, I don't smoke anymore.
00:23:47.79\00:23:50.13
And before the night
is done they are back
00:23:52.23\00:23:56.33
to smoking again,
number one association;
00:23:56.36\00:24:00.10
some alcohol
association. I can't tell
00:24:00.40\00:24:03.07
you when to drink again.
00:24:03.10\00:24:04.54
But I can tell this, if
you really serious about
00:24:04.57\00:24:08.14
staying off smoking
I wouldn't have a drink
00:24:08.18\00:24:11.95
till I no longer had an
urge to have a cigarette
00:24:11.98\00:24:14.18
and then I would hope that maybe
00:24:14.48\00:24:16.08
I wouldn't need the alcohol too.
00:24:16.12\00:24:17.49
I could talk to
you about alcohol,
00:24:19.82\00:24:21.39
I get all upset about
it, terribly upset since
00:24:21.42\00:24:24.89
one little four
year old friend of mine
00:24:24.93\00:24:26.70
was killed by drunk
driver and I decided
00:24:26.73\00:24:28.70
that never again in
my life would I support
00:24:28.73\00:24:30.77
this industry. But,
staying off smoking stay away
00:24:30.80\00:24:36.87
from alcohol at
least until you no longer
00:24:36.91\00:24:39.41
have an urge to have a cigarette
00:24:39.44\00:24:40.78
and then you might
discover that life can be
00:24:40.81\00:24:42.81
good without
alcohol, okay. Doesn't it make
00:24:42.84\00:24:49.65
sense to you; just
think about this for minute
00:24:49.68\00:24:52.45
that we could go
through life without something
00:24:52.49\00:24:55.76
to alter my brain, to
kick it up, to kick it down,
00:24:55.79\00:24:59.79
to tranquilize it,
I can take life joys
00:25:00.30\00:25:02.83
and life sorrows.
Life pleasures and
00:25:03.10\00:25:06.94
life problems without
some mind altering drug.
00:25:06.97\00:25:10.44
That seems like
a good way to me,
00:25:11.97\00:25:13.31
that's a kind a
lifestyle I like to leave.
00:25:13.78\00:25:15.74
And I find it quit interesting
00:25:16.41\00:25:19.05
and there is nothing
quite so boring is going
00:25:19.08\00:25:21.45
to cocktail party when everybody
00:25:21.48\00:25:22.95
is getting drunk. But
I've been to few of them,
00:25:22.98\00:25:25.99
but now a days it
sort a good news you know,
00:25:26.92\00:25:29.06
use to be than
anybody with a glass of orange
00:25:29.09\00:25:32.03
juice is something may thought
00:25:32.06\00:25:33.40
was particularly
clear. Clear, but now a days
00:25:33.43\00:25:34.96
I find there is a
lot of people that are
00:25:35.00\00:25:36.93
rising up and finding
that they can go to social
00:25:36.97\00:25:41.07
occasions and
people don't laugh anymore
00:25:41.10\00:25:43.51
when you say, just
give me a Virgin Mary
00:25:43.54\00:25:46.34
or give me some orange juice or
00:25:47.28\00:25:49.58
something like that.
So stay off until at least
00:25:49.61\00:25:53.45
you no longer have an
urge to have cigarette.
00:25:53.48\00:25:55.25
What do you think is
a number two situation
00:25:55.28\00:25:56.85
that people right at
least, takes them back
00:25:56.89\00:25:58.85
to smoking? Well
you think about caffeine
00:25:58.89\00:26:02.72
and it may well be
but that's not the number
00:26:02.76\00:26:04.66
two thing they write back to me.
00:26:04.69\00:26:06.03
Stress, stress,
some stress situation,
00:26:06.86\00:26:11.70
most smokers
when they get stressed
00:26:11.97\00:26:14.54
what they want
to do? Smoke. Smoke!
00:26:14.57\00:26:17.27
I actually have a set of slides
00:26:17.31\00:26:19.27
that was made
for me, some cartoons
00:26:19.31\00:26:21.38
by an artist of
things that people have
00:26:21.41\00:26:23.38
actually written to
me and told me that took
00:26:23.41\00:26:27.02
them back to smoking.
00:26:27.05\00:26:28.38
One lady, I picked up the letter
00:26:29.92\00:26:32.72
and there are
actually tears stains
00:26:32.75\00:26:34.46
on the letter. And it
said something like this,
00:26:34.59\00:26:37.56
doctor I could kick
myself from here to Mexico City.
00:26:38.06\00:26:41.33
I had a fight with
my husband last night.
00:26:43.40\00:26:45.30
I lost the
fight with my husband.
00:26:45.33\00:26:47.00
I lost the battle
with cigarettes on the
00:26:47.04\00:26:48.80
same evening. Do you
have anymore clinics?
00:26:48.84\00:26:52.81
You see, she was a
double loser that night.
00:26:54.84\00:26:57.01
Is there anybody here
that doesn't have stress?
00:27:01.75\00:27:03.39
Everybody has
stress. I keep saying it,
00:27:05.82\00:27:08.49
you know. Somebody
dies, husband runs off
00:27:08.72\00:27:12.76
with a secretary.
Kids run around with bumps,
00:27:12.79\00:27:16.87
flunk a test; loose a
job. I remember one night
00:27:17.77\00:27:21.90
I was driving down in
Detroit two flat tires
00:27:21.94\00:27:24.34
about 3'o clock in the
morning when I was going
00:27:24.37\00:27:26.14
for an operation, that's stress.
00:27:26.17\00:27:27.51
But does that solve
problems to smoke under
00:27:28.81\00:27:31.65
those
circumstances. No. Now I taught
00:27:31.68\00:27:34.12
you one slogan, you
learned it. What was it?
00:27:34.15\00:27:36.72
I love Being Free From Smoking.
00:27:36.75\00:27:40.92
Now we are going to
come up with our next slogan
00:27:41.56\00:27:43.69
and it's very
important, because you will no
00:27:43.99\00:27:47.60
no sooner liver in
a day or two or three
00:27:47.63\00:27:50.80
there is gonna be
stressful situation
00:27:50.83\00:27:52.97
and every brain and
your body is gonna start
00:27:53.00\00:27:55.44
hollering cigarette,
cigarette, cigarette.
00:27:55.47\00:27:57.07
And then we must be
prepared for it right?
00:28:00.88\00:28:02.81
And this is our
slogan. Does cigarette
00:28:03.98\00:28:07.18
solve problems? No,
so here is what we say?
00:28:07.22\00:28:10.55
Out loud! Cigarettes
Don't Solve Problems.
00:28:10.99\00:28:16.42
Now let say it together,
00:28:16.46\00:28:17.79
Cigarettes Don't Solve Problems.
00:28:17.83\00:28:21.86
Yeah, one more
time that we learn it.
00:28:21.90\00:28:23.47
Cigarettes don't solve problems.
00:28:23.80\00:28:27.67
Cigarettes Create Problems,
00:28:28.07\00:28:30.57
cigarettes complicate problems.
00:28:31.21\00:28:33.78
They are like the Watergate.
00:28:33.81\00:28:35.18
Nixon who had the
Watergate trying to solve
00:28:35.21\00:28:37.18
the problem did
he solve his problem?
00:28:37.21\00:28:39.45
No he lost his
presidency over that little
00:28:39.78\00:28:42.42
monkey shine. Cigarettes what?
00:28:42.45\00:28:45.05
Don't solve
problems. So when the issue
00:28:45.59\00:28:49.26
comes up you
see, you are prepared,
00:28:49.29\00:28:51.33
oh I don't know what cigarette
00:28:52.93\00:28:54.73
don't solve problems.
You see because if we go back
00:28:54.76\00:28:59.23
to smoking then we
still have to solve
00:28:59.27\00:29:01.20
the problem, then we
got a solve the smoking
00:29:01.24\00:29:04.31
problem all over
again. You don't wanna do
00:29:04.34\00:29:06.71
that, do you?
No. Cigarettes what?
00:29:06.74\00:29:08.91
Don't solve
problems. Okay you got it,
00:29:09.38\00:29:14.18
what part is caffeine place,
00:29:14.98\00:29:16.82
several of you mentioned it?
00:29:16.85\00:29:18.19
It's seems to be in general a
00:29:19.19\00:29:21.02
delayed response. It
goes something like this,
00:29:21.06\00:29:23.73
and it's a little hard
to get a solid hand on it
00:29:23.76\00:29:26.80
and I will tell you
ladies and gentlemen,
00:29:26.83\00:29:28.40
I don't give you
any monkey shines.
00:29:28.43\00:29:30.03
Anything I tell you
has been tested, checked,
00:29:30.07\00:29:33.07
and we know caffeine
is a little more difficult
00:29:33.57\00:29:37.14
to get a whole lot
because it goes like this.
00:29:37.17\00:29:38.77
Hello doc, yeah.
Have you got any more
00:29:39.47\00:29:43.14
those clinics?
Why are you asking?
00:29:43.18\00:29:46.01
I'm smoking.
How did that happen?
00:29:46.95\00:29:49.95
I don't really know
doc, I was off for about
00:29:50.59\00:29:52.62
six months. Then
I started to get a
00:29:52.65\00:29:56.36
little nervous. Next question,
00:29:56.39\00:30:00.90
when did you go
back on your caffeine?
00:30:01.83\00:30:03.57
Well a couple of
weeks ago, I thought
00:30:04.00\00:30:05.63
I was off now and
it wasn't bothered
00:30:05.67\00:30:07.07
me anymore. How
much coffee you drink it?
00:30:07.10\00:30:09.47
Oh as much as I did
before you know started out
00:30:09.50\00:30:11.97
with one cup but
now is up to five.
00:30:12.01\00:30:13.68
Do you think mine
going back to coffee
00:30:15.11\00:30:16.58
and anything to
do with it? Yeah,
00:30:16.61\00:30:20.25
had a lot to do with
it. It's almost say the
00:30:20.72\00:30:23.95
same thing for the
coffee that I said for the
00:30:23.99\00:30:25.95
alcohol. Stay off it,
until you no longer have
00:30:25.99\00:30:30.99
a urge that goes for
all the other caffeine
00:30:31.03\00:30:33.03
beverages, tea,
coke, tab, doctor pepper
00:30:33.36\00:30:37.47
whatever it is, until
you no longer have an urge
00:30:37.50\00:30:40.34
to have a cigarette
and hopefully by then
00:30:40.77\00:30:43.81
you will
discover, you gonna live
00:30:44.37\00:30:47.04
without coffee.
There is life after coffee,
00:30:47.08\00:30:49.71
and it's a
better life. How many of
00:30:51.55\00:30:54.62
you are feeling awake,
fairly well awake today
00:30:54.65\00:30:57.12
without coffee,
let me see your hands.
00:30:57.15\00:30:58.62
You are gonna be
more awake tomorrow,
00:30:58.65\00:31:00.52
won't that be good
news? And your fatigued
00:31:00.56\00:31:03.46
life comes on; you
need your rest you get it?
00:31:03.49\00:31:06.80
Doesn't it make good sense?
00:31:06.83\00:31:08.16
Not to show it out the
fatigued life on our body,
00:31:08.43\00:31:11.93
and I will suggest even
the decaffeinated coffee
00:31:12.63\00:31:15.47
that you live it
off because of the
00:31:15.50\00:31:16.84
psychological
associations, now you say,
00:31:16.87\00:31:19.81
what can I have?
You want something,
00:31:22.08\00:31:24.91
brown something
hot. Let me write down
00:31:24.95\00:31:27.78
just a couple of
things that you might drink.
00:31:27.82\00:31:33.19
Personally, I'm
not addicted mostly
00:31:34.16\00:31:36.93
hot drinks, but some
of my coffee drinking
00:31:36.96\00:31:39.46
friends find these fairly good.
00:31:39.49\00:31:42.36
Aroma, now you might
find these in some other
00:31:45.97\00:31:49.60
stores or some of
the health food stores.
00:31:49.64\00:31:51.54
If you want
places to find them where
00:31:54.88\00:31:56.64
they are cheaper you see me
00:31:56.68\00:31:58.01
and I will tell you
person. Aroma is a brown
00:31:58.05\00:32:01.88
beverage that
you put in hot water
00:32:02.65\00:32:04.39
and, some people
it's hot drink it's made
00:32:04.72\00:32:12.43
from grains, and
it doesn't have any
00:32:12.46\00:32:16.00
caffeine in it and my
coffee drinking friends
00:32:16.03\00:32:18.63
tell me that's
about the best substitute
00:32:18.67\00:32:21.07
they've found.
But there some others,
00:32:21.10\00:32:22.50
P-E-RO, and there
is another one CAFEIX.
00:32:24.07\00:32:30.78
One of the oldest one
and probably the least
00:32:32.05\00:32:34.52
enjoyed by most of
my people is POSTUM.
00:32:34.55\00:32:37.55
Probably the easiest
find but, most of the people
00:32:41.52\00:32:44.23
that tell me they
wanna substitute the best one
00:32:44.26\00:32:48.46
it seems to be Aroma
okay. Where you get them?
00:32:48.50\00:32:53.00
I think you can get
them in some stores,
00:32:53.03\00:32:54.67
certainly at all
health food stores you could
00:32:54.70\00:32:56.50
find them and if you want some,
00:32:56.54\00:32:58.04
if you like it
give me a call I'll tell
00:32:58.37\00:33:00.64
where you can
get it cheaper. Okay,
00:33:00.68\00:33:03.55
alright. Now back to
stay and off smoking.
00:33:05.41\00:33:10.25
Yours physiological
urges by and large are gone.
00:33:11.79\00:33:15.89
What isn't gone are the
psychological associations,
00:33:17.53\00:33:21.80
and I should tell you
that psychology can turn
00:33:22.30\00:33:28.10
on physiology.
You remember about
00:33:28.14\00:33:32.41
Pavlov's dogs.
They probably taught
00:33:32.44\00:33:34.04
you that in school.
They used to ring a bell,
00:33:34.08\00:33:36.58
feed the dogs,
measure the gastric juice,
00:33:36.61\00:33:38.71
after a while they
found out that they can just
00:33:38.75\00:33:42.25
ring the bell the
gastric juice will flow
00:33:42.28\00:33:44.42
and they didn't even
need to feed the dogs.
00:33:44.45\00:33:46.19
That's what you call
00:33:47.19\00:33:48.52
Psychological Associations.
00:33:48.56\00:33:50.83
I have one that
illustrates it very well.
00:33:51.23\00:33:54.70
You met my sweet wife
here at the other night.
00:33:54.73\00:33:56.67
I should tell you that
she is a delicious cook.
00:33:57.47\00:34:01.20
I mean she makes good
food, and I kind a like
00:34:02.10\00:34:08.18
to get home and
eat that. Good food.
00:34:08.21\00:34:10.88
I live on Ridge
road in Northville
00:34:10.91\00:34:12.88
and that's a dirt
road, its kind like a
00:34:12.91\00:34:14.35
whole Chip Man
trail. I mean there chuckle
00:34:14.38\00:34:18.09
hold all the way down it.
00:34:18.12\00:34:20.59
And I don't really get
hungry till eat that first
00:34:22.76\00:34:25.36
chuckle hold on ridge road.
00:34:25.39\00:34:26.73
But when I do that,
I know that I'm heading
00:34:27.23\00:34:29.76
home and my
stomach starts to groan
00:34:29.80\00:34:32.07
and my appetite
begins to pickup.
00:34:32.43\00:34:34.47
Now I have noticed
something very interesting,
00:34:35.77\00:34:38.07
that sometimes I
might go say the warn
00:34:39.41\00:34:41.94
and put on Stop Smoking Clinic
00:34:41.98\00:34:43.68
and I go right pass the Supra,
00:34:43.71\00:34:45.45
it doesn't
bother me. I come home
00:34:45.48\00:34:47.98
and end up there
about 10'o clock,
00:34:48.02\00:34:49.72
but soon as I hit the
ridge road you know what,
00:34:49.75\00:34:51.19
I'm starved, I'm
starved, and I come running
00:34:51.89\00:34:54.99
in there and say
where is the food?
00:34:55.02\00:34:56.36
She say you gonna eat this late?
00:34:56.39\00:34:57.73
Well you know I'm
hungry. Now occasionally,
00:34:57.76\00:35:02.56
I mean it doesn't
happen very often,
00:35:02.60\00:35:03.97
but I might have a
case scheduled for the
00:35:05.47\00:35:07.24
afternoon and it
cancels and I'm late home
00:35:07.27\00:35:10.71
so many times I
say I'm gonna surprise
00:35:10.74\00:35:13.34
her sneaking
early. So I hit that thing
00:35:13.38\00:35:17.85
about 3 O' Clock
that first chuckle,
00:35:17.88\00:35:19.81
I might have eaten lunch at 1,
00:35:19.85\00:35:21.18
but you know I am still hungry,
00:35:21.22\00:35:22.55
doesn't seem to
make any difference.
00:35:23.62\00:35:25.22
Psychology
turned it on physiology.
00:35:26.52\00:35:31.29
You understand
what I'm talking about.
00:35:31.33\00:35:32.93
Now you've got severa
psychological triggers
00:35:33.76\00:35:37.40
that will turn on your
urge to have a cigarette
00:35:37.97\00:35:42.10
even though you
don't have a psychological
00:35:42.14\00:35:44.27
need and in your
booklets on page 30
00:35:44.31\00:35:48.01
and you promise
me you would do your
00:35:49.11\00:35:50.71
assignments, there is
a page called Master Plan
00:35:50.75\00:35:55.68
for blocking
triggers, master plan for
00:35:56.99\00:36:03.66
blocking triggers.
Now, what, and you are
00:36:03.69\00:36:09.96
supposed to write down
what those triggers are,
00:36:10.00\00:36:11.93
you're triggers and
what you plan to do to
00:36:11.97\00:36:15.17
get rid of those triggers, okay.
00:36:15.20\00:36:17.34
Somebody just give me
a trigger that turns on
00:36:18.47\00:36:21.24
the urge for a
cigarette, driving a car,
00:36:21.28\00:36:23.65
driving a car. Sure
enough. Driving a car.
00:36:23.68\00:36:28.02
Well let's talk
about driving a car first
00:36:28.58\00:36:30.69
tonight and if
we had time we work
00:36:30.72\00:36:32.35
it through
together. I will make you
00:36:32.39\00:36:33.72
a suggestion, if you
like it write it down,
00:36:33.76\00:36:35.46
if you have a better
one write your own down.
00:36:35.49\00:36:38.23
You know I pointed
out you can actually get
00:36:38.79\00:36:40.96
in a car started
up and drive away
00:36:41.00\00:36:43.37
and not smoke, but
you've been smoking so long
00:36:43.63\00:36:46.70
that you no more get in the car,
00:36:46.74\00:36:48.10
put the key and you
think and you brain says
00:36:48.40\00:36:50.64
cigarette time,
cigarette time, cigarette time.
00:36:50.67\00:36:53.27
Now what we know
about changing habits
00:36:55.84\00:36:57.98
is that if we will do
the same thing for about
00:36:58.01\00:37:00.15
three weeks for the
same trigger we will change
00:37:00.18\00:37:02.72
the psychological
trigger. So what we have
00:37:04.09\00:37:07.59
to do is put
something in the car that
00:37:07.62\00:37:10.83
we will do
instead of smoking and
00:37:10.86\00:37:13.36
I suggest that
maybe you take as package
00:37:13.40\00:37:15.40
of sugar of gum
and stick it up there.
00:37:15.43\00:37:17.03
So you get in the
car you turns the switch
00:37:17.47\00:37:19.53
you take, let's take a
gum and you start chewing
00:37:19.57\00:37:22.37
and you may
become addicted to gum,
00:37:22.40\00:37:23.74
but you probably be
able to get off that much
00:37:24.87\00:37:26.78
easier then you
get off cigarettes.
00:37:26.81\00:37:29.61
You may wanna put a
package of toothpicks up
00:37:29.81\00:37:32.11
there and chewing the
toothpick very few people
00:37:32.15\00:37:34.98
die of Dutch Elm
disease for chewing toothpicks,
00:37:35.02\00:37:37.15
okay. You got the
idea. Telephone rings,
00:37:39.99\00:37:43.63
someone says, you
got to have a cigarette.
00:37:43.66\00:37:45.66
You see the telephone
rings I need a cigarette,
00:37:45.69\00:37:47.93
I need a cigarette phone rings,
00:37:47.96\00:37:49.30
alright what to do?
I will tell you what
00:37:51.20\00:37:53.13
one lady she did.
It's interesting to show
00:37:53.17\00:37:55.24
how it works. She told
me she took the telephone
00:37:55.27\00:37:58.31
out of the kitchen and
she put it in the bedroom.
00:37:58.34\00:38:00.14
She never smoked in the bedroom.
00:38:00.18\00:38:01.51
So at times she
walk back to the bedroom
00:38:02.34\00:38:04.31
and there she was in
the bedroom talking over
00:38:04.35\00:38:05.71
the phone and it
didn't seem to bother
00:38:05.81\00:38:07.15
her at all. I've
suggested that people take
00:38:07.18\00:38:09.88
and put a do-do
pad by the telephone.
00:38:09.92\00:38:13.89
When they pick it up
you know you can start
00:38:14.42\00:38:16.32
writing things on
there like I Love Being
00:38:16.36\00:38:19.33
Free from Smoking.
If there is bad news
00:38:19.63\00:38:23.23
you write on there Cigarettes;
00:38:23.50\00:38:25.93
Don't Solve
Problems, you can draw skull
00:38:26.27\00:38:30.57
and crossbones, you
can make symbols like
00:38:30.61\00:38:32.61
you see around
the auditorium there,
00:38:32.64\00:38:35.21
you can draw this
thing in your figure,
00:38:35.24\00:38:37.45
you can even chew on eraser.
00:38:37.98\00:38:39.75
You see if you do that everyday
00:38:40.05\00:38:42.45
for three weeks,
you will reeducated
00:38:42.48\00:38:45.55
your patterns, other triggers.
00:38:46.79\00:38:48.82
After meals, after
meals always calls for
00:38:51.29\00:38:54.96
a cigarette. The
best solution I've found
00:38:55.00\00:38:57.40
for that is to
immediately get up
00:38:57.43\00:39:01.37
from the table and
split. Go do a little exercise
00:39:01.40\00:39:06.37
or something like a
go for a little walk,
00:39:06.41\00:39:08.61
go get on your exercise bike,
00:39:09.18\00:39:11.05
but don't sit
there. Get up and go.
00:39:11.35\00:39:17.25
Alright, you've
got the idea now right.
00:39:18.15\00:39:21.19
Now there is one
other thing you must be
00:39:21.72\00:39:23.93
particularly alert too.
Watch out for situations
00:39:23.96\00:39:28.43
that you know is
going to cause trouble.
00:39:28.46\00:39:31.10
Are you listening?
I'll give you a couple
00:39:31.93\00:39:35.14
of illustrations. I
went to work in the office
00:39:35.17\00:39:39.81
there at the
university and one of my nurses
00:39:39.84\00:39:42.21
Maureen smoked. She
didn't want me to know
00:39:42.24\00:39:46.31
she smoked. She
made up her mind I would
00:39:46.35\00:39:50.09
never catch her
smoking. She didn't know that
00:39:50.12\00:39:53.96
every time I
walk by her she smells
00:39:53.99\00:39:55.66
like an ashtray. But
you know smokers don't know
00:39:55.69\00:39:59.06
they stink, so
there is no problem.
00:39:59.09\00:40:01.33
So I decided not to
say anything to her.
00:40:02.66\00:40:05.40
She wanted to play the game,
00:40:05.80\00:40:07.24
well I would play her game.
00:40:07.27\00:40:09.37
One day I left the
office. This was her trigger
00:40:10.31\00:40:14.74
to light a
cigarette, the only problem
00:40:16.08\00:40:19.78
was this day I had
forgotten something
00:40:19.81\00:40:21.82
at the office, not on purpose.
00:40:21.85\00:40:24.65
But I forgot
something and I spun around
00:40:25.49\00:40:28.12
and I went back in
and there was my nurse
00:40:28.16\00:40:30.53
Maureen with her cigarette.
00:40:30.56\00:40:32.23
She was so alarmed
she put it in the desk
00:40:32.66\00:40:35.66
and set the desk on fire.
00:40:35.70\00:40:37.03
Deeply embarrassed.
After we had the fire
00:40:42.70\00:40:46.14
put out, she said
"Doctor I've been thinking
00:40:46.34\00:40:52.71
of coming to one of
your smoking programs."
00:40:52.75\00:40:54.88
I said, "Maureen how
fortunate, I've got one
00:40:57.45\00:40:59.65
coming up." She came
to the smoking clinic.
00:40:59.69\00:41:04.03
She quit smoking.
It was just in the fall
00:41:04.79\00:41:08.76
of the year, just
before the holidays,
00:41:08.80\00:41:10.70
she came to me
and she said, "Doctor,
00:41:12.37\00:41:15.30
one of the other
university doctors
00:41:17.04\00:41:18.37
is having a cocktail
party. I've got to go.
00:41:18.41\00:41:21.21
If I go to the
cocktail party I'll drink,
00:41:22.14\00:41:23.85
and if I drink I'll
smoke. What should I do?"
00:41:23.88\00:41:26.72
I said, "Stay home." She
said, "He won't understand,
00:41:27.82\00:41:32.05
I've got to go,
and if I go I'll drink,
00:41:32.09\00:41:34.06
and if I drink I'll smoke."
00:41:34.09\00:41:35.42
I said, "Do you wanna smoke?"
00:41:37.59\00:41:41.83
She said, "No". I said,
"Well then go and don't drink.
00:41:41.86\00:41:43.63
She says, "I never
went to a cocktail party and
00:41:43.67\00:41:45.80
didn't drink. And if I
go to the cocktail party
00:41:45.83\00:41:48.97
I'll drink, and if
I drink I'll smoke."
00:41:49.00\00:41:50.57
"Oh!" I said,
"Maureen, you have a 'catch 22'.
00:41:53.71\00:41:56.28
Do you want to smoke?"
"No, I don't want to smoke.
00:41:56.31\00:41:58.78
But I got to go to the party,
00:41:58.81\00:42:00.15
and if I go I'll drink
and if I drink, I'll smoke."
00:42:00.18\00:42:01.68
I said, "Maureen, let
see if we can get a plan.
00:42:03.79\00:42:06.45
Now listen, this is
the clue; have a plan.
00:42:06.49\00:42:09.22
She was single. I
said, "Are you going to
00:42:11.23\00:42:14.50
take a date?" "Well I might"
she said.  I said, "Take a
00:42:14.53\00:42:16.90
non-smoking, non-drinking date."
00:42:16.93\00:42:20.94
She says, "I didn't
know there were any fellows
00:42:21.30\00:42:23.20
like that." I said,
"There are, and maybe I can help
00:42:23.24\00:42:31.25
you find one."
It was interesting.
00:42:31.28\00:42:35.62
She came back from
the party and she said,
00:42:35.98\00:42:38.32
"You know, it wasn't
bad." She said, "I told him,
00:42:38.35\00:42:42.12
'If you see me
reaching for a drink stop me.
00:42:42.72\00:42:45.59
If you see me
reaching for a cigarette,
00:42:45.63\00:42:47.26
take me home." She
ended up marrying the man.
00:42:47.56\00:42:53.23
Audience: "Oh, great!"
And they do not smoke and
00:42:53.27\00:43:01.14
they do not drink in that house.
00:43:01.18\00:43:02.64
Now isn't that beautiful?
00:43:02.68\00:43:04.55
Maureen, my nurse.
But you see, why was
00:43:04.58\00:43:08.88
possible for her? She
had a plan when she went.
00:43:08.92\00:43:13.05
You see if she went
there with a smoking,
00:43:13.09\00:43:16.46
drinking man she
would have smoked.
00:43:16.96\00:43:19.33
But she had a plan.
If you know you're going
00:43:19.36\00:43:21.90
to get into a situation
where you can smoke or drink,
00:43:21.93\00:43:25.80
be prepared ahead
of a time and know how
00:43:26.17\00:43:28.54
you're going to handle it.
00:43:28.57\00:43:30.44
So you don't get in
trouble.  It was on a
00:43:30.47\00:43:32.94
Friday night and
one of the ladies
00:43:32.97\00:43:34.64
that was there told me,
"Doctor, what am I going
00:43:35.08\00:43:38.31
to do this weekend?
My daughter graduates
00:43:38.35\00:43:40.35
from Ohio State,
I've got to go down
00:43:40.38\00:43:42.05
and pick her up. If
there is anytime I smoke,
00:43:42.08\00:43:44.22
it's when I am in my
car. I've got an 8 hour trip,
00:43:44.25\00:43:46.96
what am I going to do?
00:43:47.16\00:43:49.46
Help Me! I said,
"let's get a plan, you see.
00:43:51.46\00:43:54.10
So we worked this
out for her a little bit.
00:43:55.03\00:43:57.80
I said,  "Don't take
any cigarettes. If you have
00:43:58.83\00:44:03.10
to stop for gas,
stay away from the
00:44:03.14\00:44:04.94
cigarette machine.
Take along plenty of
00:44:04.97\00:44:06.98
stuff to chew on.
Get some sugarless gum,
00:44:07.01\00:44:08.94
get some carrot
sticks, get some toothpicks,
00:44:08.98\00:44:11.18
In case you get
tired or something, you got
00:44:11.48\00:44:13.35
something else." Then
I said, "If worse comes
00:44:13.38\00:44:15.18
to worse, you can do
like I used to do with
00:44:15.22\00:44:17.85
the kids." She says,
"What's that?" "Well" I said,
00:44:17.89\00:44:21.22
"we had six kids." Now
I don't know if you folks
00:44:21.26\00:44:23.19
ever took six
kids on a trip or not.
00:44:23.22\00:44:25.26
But you put these kids
in the back of the station
00:44:26.90\00:44:29.63
wagon you know.  We got
a 300 mile trip, and we go
00:44:29.66\00:44:31.87
about 10 miles and they
say, 'are we there yet daddy?
00:44:31.90\00:44:35.00
And pretty soon there
is some hastling going on
00:44:36.30\00:44:38.91
back there and they say,
He did it! No she did it!
00:44:38.94\00:44:40.94
And, and it gets a
little bit unbearable
00:44:40.98\00:44:44.05
after while. So I
used to say, "OK kids,
00:44:44.08\00:44:47.42
we're gonna stop the
car now, and we're gonna
00:44:47.45\00:44:49.68
have a Chinese fire
drill. So I get all six kids
00:44:49.72\00:44:53.66
out of the car and I
said, "I want you to run
00:44:53.69\00:44:55.02
around this car
until I tell you to stop."
00:44:55.06\00:44:56.73
So, here go the
kids round, and round,
00:44:58.19\00:45:01.50
and round the car till
they are all pooped out. Then I
00:45:01.53\00:45:03.93
put them back in the
car and they'd be quiet
00:45:03.97\00:45:05.53
for a while again.
Someone might even take a nap.
00:45:05.57\00:45:08.90
So I told her, "If
worse comes to worse you know,
00:45:09.67\00:45:11.67
and you just can't
stand it any longer, I said
00:45:12.41\00:45:14.31
"Stop the car and
have Chinese fire drill.
00:45:14.34\00:45:16.34
Go racing around that
thing till you no longer
00:45:17.18\00:45:19.78
have an urge." She came
back to following Monday
00:45:19.81\00:45:22.62
for graduation and
I was very anxious to
00:45:22.65\00:45:24.65
to talk to her and I
said, How did it go?"
00:45:24.69\00:45:26.65
She said, "It
wasn't as bad as I thought,
00:45:27.12\00:45:28.99
and I only had two
Chinese fire drills."
00:45:29.02\00:45:30.79
But the whole point
of it is, if you're going
00:45:34.96\00:45:39.23
to get into a
situation that you know
00:45:39.27\00:45:44.47
will be trouble,
avoid it if you can.
00:45:44.51\00:45:46.51
If you can't
avoid it, have a plan.
00:45:46.88\00:45:52.71
Now do not forget to
complete your triggers
00:45:52.85\00:45:58.75
tonight. I think we
will have just a minute or
00:45:59.19\00:46:01.76
two now to answer any
questions particularly
00:46:01.79\00:46:05.19
about the long
term or anything else
00:46:05.23\00:46:06.80
that's bother.
Right someone wanna,
00:46:06.83\00:46:08.16
could we get a
microphone down here on
00:46:08.60\00:46:10.10
this young lady.
She wants to ask us a
00:46:10.13\00:46:13.00
question here.
While they are doing that
00:46:13.03\00:46:22.38
let me give you a
couple of other suggestions
00:46:22.41\00:46:24.25
that you'll find
helpful. Move into other areas
00:46:24.28\00:46:28.75
of personal growth,
when you to stop smoking.
00:46:29.58\00:46:33.29
Now tomorrow night we
are going to talk to you
00:46:33.79\00:46:36.83
a lot about the number
of programs that we have
00:46:36.86\00:46:40.73
that you can join in,
that we think we will serve
00:46:40.76\00:46:43.13
as a real enforcement.
Increase your physical
00:46:43.16\00:46:48.77
exercise. Do
something about your diet.
00:46:48.80\00:46:52.34
Broaden your
spiritual base. Do something
00:46:53.21\00:46:56.95
so that you can
see that as a person,
00:46:57.31\00:46:59.65
you're getting
better and better.
00:47:00.02\00:47:02.02
This will do a lot to
reinforce your decisions
00:47:02.28\00:47:05.52
to stay off smoking.
Another thing you will
00:47:05.55\00:47:07.79
find very helpful, is
to help somebody else quit.
00:47:07.82\00:47:12.29
You know how it's
done now; you can work
00:47:12.93\00:47:15.36
with them. Our next
Stop Smoking Clinic is
00:47:15.40\00:47:19.07
going to be in
Southfield on February 8th.
00:47:19.10\00:47:21.60
I will give you all
that date and information
00:47:21.97\00:47:23.51
probably Friday or
Monday night. Bring somebody
00:47:23.87\00:47:27.24
and you'll see how that
will reinforce your decision
00:47:27.28\00:47:30.58
to stay off.
Question here. "When you say
00:47:31.38\00:47:33.95
we were flushing
nicotine out of our systems,
00:47:33.98\00:47:36.32
what if you didn't
follow that you drank your
00:47:36.72\00:47:39.05
juice but you did
have something to eat,
00:47:39.09\00:47:40.89
does it take
longer to flush out?"
00:47:41.26\00:47:43.19
The answer is if she
was eating and somewhat
00:47:43.89\00:47:46.59
she didn't follow
the program 100 percent,
00:47:46.63\00:47:48.36
but she's wearying a
button so we're gonna
00:47:49.10\00:47:51.03
be proud of that. Now
the nicotine will get out
00:47:51.07\00:47:54.10
in about three days,
it goes a little faster
00:47:54.14\00:47:56.10
if you drink
because it's excreted by the
00:47:56.14\00:47:58.41
kidneys, but in three
days the nicotine will
00:47:58.44\00:48:00.84
be gone. Okay I did
drink. That's why the
00:48:00.88\00:48:02.31
physiological
symptoms will largely disappear
00:48:02.34\00:48:04.58
in three days. I did
how the drinking but I had a
00:48:04.61\00:48:07.68
salad the first night
I couldn't go no longer
00:48:07.72\00:48:11.12
but so still work a
lot. But you're doing well
00:48:11.45\00:48:13.22
and you feel
better tomorrow, alright.
00:48:13.25\00:48:15.02
Okay. Any other
questions, yes, right back here
00:48:15.06\00:48:18.43
could you get this
lady. Since we've been off
00:48:18.66\00:48:25.33
cigarettes for three
days, is our body starting
00:48:25.37\00:48:28.20
now to heal itself or
are our lungs starting to
00:48:28.24\00:48:30.57
clean up?
Everything is going already.
00:48:30.61\00:48:34.31
It's amazing the body's
ability to rehabilitate,
00:48:34.58\00:48:38.71
the damage you do to
it if you only give it a
00:48:39.78\00:48:42.28
chance and indeed as
I pointed out the other
00:48:43.49\00:48:45.75
night, as far as
your heart concern you've
00:48:45.79\00:48:47.69
already got five
years behind you.
00:48:47.72\00:48:49.32
Your lungs are starting
to clear out, that's why
00:48:49.59\00:48:51.53
many of you are
coughing and clearing
00:48:51.56\00:48:54.70
up that junk, sure.
Your throats are sore
00:48:54.73\00:48:59.70
but they're gonna
feel better in a little bit
00:48:59.73\00:49:02.00
of time. Other
question here tonight.
00:49:02.04\00:49:03.64
Yes over here is a
lady. Just a minute we're
00:49:03.67\00:49:06.81
coming with a
microphone, I think,
00:49:06.84\00:49:08.78
so that everyone
can get the question.
00:49:10.58\00:49:12.85
Speak right into
it. I've concerned about
00:49:13.25\00:49:15.52
the long terms of
term effects, psychological
00:49:15.55\00:49:19.12
like depression. I'm
really depressed at the
00:49:19.15\00:49:21.22
prospect of never
having another cigarette?
00:49:21.26\00:49:23.49
Alright, anybody
else feeling depressed.
00:49:23.93\00:49:26.19
Alright! Maybe I
have just time enough
00:49:27.30\00:49:34.54
to talk about this. We
will leave some questions
00:49:34.57\00:49:36.54
in another night
being how she brought it up.
00:49:36.57\00:49:38.57
There is a
grieving process that people
00:49:40.24\00:49:42.91
frequently go
through when they quit
00:49:42.94\00:49:45.85
smoking and in your
booklet there is a section
00:49:45.88\00:49:49.98
on that. You can
look it up, that grieving
00:49:50.02\00:49:52.45
process, I don't know
exactly what page it's on.
00:49:52.49\00:49:54.62
But you start out and
you feel lot of things
00:49:55.66\00:49:58.99
you go through anger
you go through doubts
00:49:59.03\00:50:03.50
and fears and
grieving before you come to
00:50:03.53\00:50:07.37
the acceptance part of
it. And some of that is
00:50:07.40\00:50:12.17
actually back again
where your emotions,
00:50:12.21\00:50:14.54
you know I told
you the hypothalamus
00:50:14.58\00:50:17.45
of the brain, that
has a lot to do with some
00:50:17.48\00:50:20.92
of our emotions, and
it takes a little time for
00:50:20.95\00:50:26.52
that to get better,
part of it however is due to
00:50:26.55\00:50:32.13
your emotions
telling you one thing while
00:50:32.16\00:50:35.83
your intellect
tells you something else.
00:50:35.86\00:50:38.27
Maybe I can illustrate this way.
00:50:39.83\00:50:41.47
Remember I told
you about my daughter
00:50:42.00\00:50:43.54
who is in Missionary
in Taiwan and when she
00:50:43.57\00:50:49.58
was a teenager,
I came home one day
00:50:49.61\00:50:54.95
and I could see
she was very depressed.
00:50:55.28\00:50:57.09
And I said Karen
what's the trouble?
00:50:58.89\00:51:01.39
Nothing! I said
something is a trouble,
00:51:01.72\00:51:05.29
don't you wanna
tell me about it? No.
00:51:06.13\00:51:08.00
After a while she
said well yes dad,
00:51:11.13\00:51:13.44
I'm depressed. I said
why are you depressed?
00:51:13.47\00:51:16.60
She said I want to
break up with Dave.
00:51:17.34\00:51:19.67
I said why don't you?
She said I wish he call.
00:51:21.14\00:51:24.71
Now do you see
the situation here,
00:51:29.28\00:51:31.52
intellectually she
said I want to break up
00:51:31.82\00:51:34.66
with Dave, emotionally
she said I want him to call.
00:51:34.69\00:51:39.26
She was very
depressed because she didn't
00:51:39.29\00:51:43.97
have herself fully
integrated there you see?
00:51:44.00\00:51:46.74
After two or three
days I came home and
00:51:48.07\00:51:49.67
I could see she
was really, she wasn't
00:51:49.70\00:51:51.14
particularly
happy but there was some
00:51:51.17\00:51:54.01
tranquility there,
and I said honey you look
00:51:54.04\00:51:56.34
like you feel
better now. She says I did
00:51:56.38\00:51:58.48
I said did you
break up with Dave?
00:51:58.51\00:51:59.85
She said yes and she
says I told him don't call.
00:52:00.35\00:52:04.82
So you see now her
intellect and her actions
00:52:06.32\00:52:12.29
were on the same
wavelength. Now a lot of
00:52:12.73\00:52:17.73
people when they quit
smoking, intellectually
00:52:17.77\00:52:19.53
they're glad they've
quit emotionally they say
00:52:19.97\00:52:23.81
why am I glad I quit
but I like a cigarette
00:52:23.84\00:52:25.97
right now. Do you
see the conflict here and
00:52:26.01\00:52:30.38
when you couldn't
tell yourself honestly go
00:52:30.41\00:52:34.15
ahead and climb the
wall baby you're still not
00:52:34.18\00:52:37.82
going to have a
cigarette. And when you know
00:52:37.85\00:52:40.96
you mean that, that
will do more to relieve
00:52:40.99\00:52:45.26
the depression
then anything else.
00:52:45.29\00:52:48.16
Guys well it doesn't
fit my illustration here.
00:52:49.43\00:52:53.30
I will give you the sequel.
00:52:53.34\00:52:54.84
Dave was
uncomfortable after that because
00:52:55.84\00:52:59.74
she wanted him to
date nobody else and he
00:52:59.77\00:53:02.01
thought that she dates
several others, you see
00:53:02.04\00:53:03.71
that was a whole issue.
And Dave is the father of
00:53:04.05\00:53:07.78
that little boy we
went to Taiwan to see.
00:53:07.82\00:53:10.19
So that worked out pretty good,
00:53:11.02\00:53:14.59
did you have a
question? Obviously!
00:53:14.62\00:53:16.36
Alright she has a
question about, wait
00:53:17.39\00:53:20.76
but let me tell you
something tomorrow night
00:53:20.80\00:53:23.37
is the night
we're gonna talk about
00:53:24.17\00:53:26.03
how to stop
smoking without growing
00:53:27.17\00:53:32.51
into this size 95, okay?
00:53:32.54\00:53:35.48
Alright how are you
feeling? Are you glad that
00:53:36.64\00:53:38.61
you've made it to
first three days here? Yes!
00:53:38.65\00:53:42.25
Let's give yourself a big hand,
00:53:42.28\00:53:44.12
God bless you and I will see you
00:53:50.76\00:53:52.46
all here tomorrow night.
00:53:52.49\00:53:53.83
