okay, heres a question ive had for a long time
why do people smoke cigagrettes?
what do they get out of it besides a higher chance of dying of cancer and all that
Ive tried it, and it just tastes like shit, how is that enjoyably?
I could at least understand smoking pot, but what do ciggarettes give you, why are they so great?

when I started smoking it was out of curiosity, and yeah it tasted horrible, and made me choke when I brethed in the smoke, and I dont know why but I wanted to try again, so I did and then you end up getting addicted to the nicotine in the cigs, and because your bodys craving the nicotine, as soon as you get some you conentrate more on the fact that youve got your nicotine more than the fact of how dirty its tastes, after a while though you get used to the taste, used to breathing in the smoke and enjoy smoking, alot of people say they smoke because it helps them when they are stressed, I smoked because I enjoyed smoking.. only reasons I can give

cancers what everyone wants...but only some are lucky and get it
01 October 2005, 03:10 UTC#8
nah I didnt rely on cigs, I just used to enjoy smoking them, when I didnt have them I was annoyed buts thats like anything yopu want that you havnt got, and I actually quit about 4 months back, had aload of problems with my chest and it was near impossible to breath so I couldnt smoke for a few months, once my chest was better I decided not to start smoking again because its jsut not worth it

I smoke because it's a stress reliever. That's the main reason for most people. It's kinda like saying "Why do people do drugs or drink".

why become reliant on something to solve your problems
why not try to solve them yourselves, no offense

its actually pretty easy to quit. its hell for like 3 days then cake.
I was up to like a pack and a half a day. and now nothing.
01 October 2005, 09:58 UTC#24
stress releiever my ass. it;s just because you're breathing in deep steady breaths that it calms u down not the tar... and smoking has no plus sides that why people say why don't you quit drink or drugs... I dont do either in excess but like when your drunk more confident and like inhibitions go and u have a lot of fun, smoking u just smell and cough
01 October 2005, 10:10 UTC#25
Yeah but Sam, nicotine is a drug just as alcohol or weed... and the effects of nicotine is that its a relaxant..
01 October 2005, 10:18 UTC#26
When you are drunk it gives you a better buzz. I have never smoked a ciggarete, but I don't really have shit against weed unless you have it too often. I had a flipping buzz yesterday
01 October 2005, 10:20 UTC#27
I use to smoke and I use too really enjoy it. And especially when drunk I use to enjoy it.
01 October 2005, 13:59 UTC#28
Lots of people need something to rely on, or somthing to depend on, something that will always be there and not let them down. Some of these people use smoking. I don't understand it myself.
01 October 2005, 16:29 UTC#29
The reason I wanted to smoke...but dont. Is because when I tried it I got a high off the nicotine. It gives you a buzz and calms you down.
01 October 2005, 16:31 UTC#30
People smoke because it gives them something to talk about and share with others. That is the case for most, but some just like the taste/feeling it gives them. The biggest reason is the nicotine addiction though.
