I have a question for smokers?

It feels good. Relaxes me. Addiction.

Wow, you never knew smoking is an addiction? NOBODY ever taught you about how once you start smoking, its an addiction and you cant stop? Your school system must suck...

I'm not a smoker, but the reason smokers don't stop smoking is because they can't stop. The nicotine in cigarettes make you addicted to the cigarettes. If you want to stop smoking, you can't stop. You'll keep coming back for more.

Its really sad. Your lungs help you breathe. Without lungs you wouldn't be able to breathe, resulting in death. When you smoke, black stuff-- Similar to tar, forms on the bottom of your lungs which give you trouble breathing.

Its horrible.

I don't know that smoking is bad for me. Give me conclusive proof that there is a definite link between smoking and illness and I'll accept it!

All we have so far is guesswork, smoking increases the risk of this and that, they say based on surveys. If every single lung cancer victim was a smoker, and every single smoker contracted lung cancer then I'd believe it.

Until such time, we have to accept that it's scare-mongering to justify heavy taxes.

because if you dont smoke for a couple of days, then you get all depressed and talking like a mad man all the time, until after 2 or 3 months when your cold turkey...most smoker cant handle those painful 60 days, thats why they started to smoke again...for all of you ex smokers... you guys are awesome!!!

Because you get used to it.

Your body becomes dependent on the chemicals (nicotine and others).

Smoking releases endorphins and endorphins make you feel good/relaxed.

It IS a bad habit, and the cancer history rate in my family is not good - so i shouldn't be smoking at all. I started after my Dad died. I AM working on quitting though. I would like to be done with it by the 1st quarter of the new year.

I was told that second hand smoke was worse than actually smoking. So common sense said to start smoking to stay healthier. I've never felt better.

It's very hard to quit, i have tried a few times. It's harder to quit smoking than to quit drugs because smoking is everywhere, you can't get away from it.

And we're all idiots for starting in the first place

I began smoking because I was picked on in high school, and smoking boosted my popularity, but then I realized many things, including that it wasn't me, and I was influencing my little sisters, so now I'm trying to quit for them.

Because contrary to a lot of the reports you hear, it is not as bad as merely living in a city, walking along the street, or working in a factory. Did you know the increase of cancer started when with the industrialization of the world? and the use of chemicals in our food sources, but is blamed on the one thing they can attack most easily? Granted it may not be the best for you, but it is not the worst thing for you either in terms of what you do every day merely to survive. Research has brainwashed us into believing that this is bad for you, because they cannot attack something like preservatives in your food.

Smoking is a very DISGUSTING habit, and it smells TERRIBLE, I would never kiss a smoker. Eww! I'm so sickened by this habit, that i dont go out to eat for fear that smokers have touched my food. I dont even drink after them or eat after them, or ride in their cars...

Good question. I wonder the same thing. (i dont smoke)

Its very dumb actually, why not just put a gun in ur mouth and shoot. Ur doing the same thing except ur killing urself slow and painfully. Dont you all know that good feeling it gives you is false???? It'll go away soon and you'll want it back so you smoke some more.

And if ur doing it to look cool or something dumb like that, I'll pass, I could be the coolest, toughest looking person without killing my insides, thank you.

U know how harmful it is for you, u know how its killing you, you know the feeling it gives you is bull$h!t, y do you still do it? Dont you see how dumb that sounds???
