YOUR HEALTH FIRST

YOUR HEALTH FIRST

Being a medico though there's a lot of things to stay focused with but i would like to share something different.

I have been a medical student since two years of time, till now i have learned many things that have raised positivity inside me.

But there's always something that is disturbing me since the beginning.

That's the habit of medical student/medicos/doctors engaging in drinking and smoking.

What's the point of being a medical student/medicos/doctor if you yourself have no intention to live your own life healthy. (I don't mean that other can smoke/drink, i am just trying to relate the content and my views towards the things which are happening!)

How can a medical student/medicos/doctor buy their own death?

Isn't this ridiculous to be such?

Isn't this foolishness?

Many of the people have their own logic about this question but i would like to tell that logic is such things which will let you perform your intension whether its good or bad!

Let me give you an example; few years back when i ask a man why do you smoke then he just replied with his logic, "Brother i am smoking this stick with filter in it; it won't harm cause of its filter".

But the point is that, no matter what! he has to smoke anyhow; so he is preparing his own logic to deal with.

Similarly in medical field most of the student/doctors are engaging themselves in such act though they are good at their studies/work.

But what's the point of being responsible to save lives of others, dealing with their health/primary level to national level when you yourself is not an example of dealing with good health in fact no health at all.

I don't mean that if someone has physical deformity regarding health; then he/she cannot be medical student/doctor. I mean that at least being in medical field don't degrade your health knowingly (smoking/alcoholism) don't interpret here wrong.

Most of the people will surely criticize this topic cause i shouldn't be interested in their choice of living but i insist here cause this is not the way it works.

I have seen that many of medical student/doctor soon after their lecture/posting/duty they rush to nearby area for their cup of tea and cigarette combination; i don't know why do they love it so intensely.

Some will reply that, after many hours of continuous study/ long hours of night shift/duty then they are such tired that they need to smoke and it will relief them a little.

In the same way will you allow your patients to smoke who have habit; during post-op time thinking that he need to have some relief, cause he will feel good after smoking.

It really doesn't work like that, plz stop degrading your health.

You try to live healthy first, at least do not put yourself in risk knowingly.

I know there's a lot of things which cannot be controlled to have bad health like environmental factor/genetic/many more but knowingly how can some one smoke/drink.

I think one day our future generation will surely find something unusual about us.

They will see a picture of a man with something in b/t finger and smoking, they will surely laugh at us and say "See how foolish were our ancestors, they have habit of smoking the dirty dust rolled in paper, isn't it so disgusting to smoke dirty dust".(similarly drinking dirty water)

If these things goes on like this then for sure we will prove ourselves idiot/foolish/nonsense to our future generation; they will surely be more intellectual and with greater consciousness that they at least will not involve in such ridiculous act.

Similarly; once i was sitting with my relatives and suddenly one of them told that Doctors also drink so frequently; those are the own who often wrong diagnose their patients and he laughed furiously looking at me for no reason. It gave me cold feeling in my heart. There was nothing i could do but i took it as criticism, when a medicos/student/doctors involve in smoking/drinking then it allows other people to loose their faith on us. I know that most of the Doctors are well qualified and experienced, they treat their patients so well and never have harmed anyone of them, these are all the best part of them but if he/she is himself/herself has no interest to save their own life and often smoke/drink cause of stress then i think it doesn't suit on their personality somehow.

So every medicos/Doctors should know that their own health is also too imp so that you can save more lives to more extent of time. Its not always about patients but yourself too.

Sincerely yours
