Question: Describe about the Smoking for Complication of Diabetes. Answer: Smoking skills more people than anything else. The nicotine directly affects the brain. This assignment provides a guide how to self-manage to stop smoking. Dependent variable Smoking can increase the chances of Diabetes, stroke, heart disease, and kidney problems (Go et al., 2013). Smoking increases the insulin resistance and makes it harder for the smoker to control their blood glucose level (Beckman Creager, 2016). Any person having diabetes should not at all smoke because smoking constricts the blood vessels and diabetes adhere them from inside so there remains a very little place for the blood to flow. Smoking also causes different lung disease and cancer (Lozano et al., 2013). I want to stop smoking and in doing so I have to encounter withdrawal symptoms. It includes symptoms like headache, anxiety, nausea, and craving for more tobacco. The peak time for withdrawal symptoms is 48 hours after the quit and it is gone after six months (Piper et al., 2016). Therefore I have to be very conscious throughout this period of six months. When the time appears to be tough a ten minutes walking, jogging, or cycling may be helpful to me. Independent variable It is very hard to stop smoking suddenly because the brain already habituated with the higher level of feel-good chemicals like serotonin and dopamine. To stop smoking it is better to discuss with the persons who are very close to me about the quitting of smoking. Sometimes the stress in the office, deadlines, provokes me for smoking at this situation I must act like a responsible adult and dont take smoking as the solution to these problems. I should increase amount of exercise every day because increase in exercise helps to decrease the craving for cigarettes. I should avoid the people who insist or reminds me about smoking. I should do meditation because it helps to reduce the urge for smoking. To avoid smoking I must use nicotine patches, drink a lot of water, in tough condition I must relax with deep breathing, chew gum or hardy candy may also help me to quit smoking. Data collection method I should make a recording sheet that is a table where I can note how many cigarettes I am having every day, how many number of cigarettes I am reducing every-day and how many more can I reduce. From this table it will be clear that is there any requirement to increase the reduction number of the cigarettes or not, what is the time period that I will require to totally stop smoking, the time of my exercise, meditation, should also be notified by me on this chart, and increase them in regular basis. On the basis of the recordings of this table the I have to design a program to enhance the process of quitting of smoking. Design To design a stop smoking plan I have to follow ABAB format. According to the format I have to gather baseline information what I have to do and then have to follow a treatment procedure and then again withdrawal the treatment and observe what the changes occur in me , what are the immediate effects of the treatment on me. If it is seen that again I am feeling a craving for smoke and there is a chance of returning to the base line then again I have to re-introduce the treatment plan over me. References Beckman, J.
