Smoking

[Anonymous 7]

A question brothers.

I am 18 and currently in college taking classes I f~~~ing hate.

I would like to continue to smoke even though I have quit for the last month because life is pretty boring overall.

I cannot work out because of an injury that was my old adrenaline rush. I also cant drink caffeine.

Would it be a detrimental decision to smoke, what would you guys do?

Cigarettes not weed.

If you’re a college student, it’s all the more reason not to smoke. If anything, smoking is an expensive as f~~~ habit to take up.

The main two reasons I don’t smoke is because it’s expensive and because it’s hazardous to your health if you do it long-term.

No, man. I currently smoke, and it’s expensive as hell. I’ve tried quitting, with no luck, and if I managed to stop smoking for a month, I would call that a huge victory. Old habits die hard, though. Hell, play video games or chew gum. That helps.

Dude, are you kidding? Drop that bad habit now. I’ve smoked since I was 20 and I’m 38 now. It’s cancerous and f~~~s you up.

I’ve been trying to quit for 8 years. Got it down to just a couple when I drink and a bit of chewing tobacco. Hoping to have it fully gone out of my life this year.

It’s a major detriment to your life. No one should even have to prove that to you.

I ride a bicyle almost ever day. I work out 6 days a week. It is the key to enjoying life as you get older.PLEASE qiut young Man!!!

I’m not sure how long you were smoking but over time you may get stuck with an addiction that is worse than nicotine. Oral fixation etc. I’m more addicted to the harsh thick drag off the cigarette than I am to nicotine. I can go weeks without tobacco now but as soon as I have a beer/whiskey, I have a massive urge to smoke and get that satisfying heavy and harsh drag. A few years ago I would smoke 2 packs (sometimes more) of Marlborough Reds in a just a night when I was boozing. I would basically chain smoke until I passed out drunk. Disgusting.

I only chew so that it gives me something to do to replace the routine of the cigs. Chew is unsatisfying to me but has helped.

If you smoke try getting a non addictive kind of cigarettes. Also it is pretty expensive to smoke while in college.

Just an east coast asshole who likes to curse, If you get offended by words like fuck, cunt, shit, piss, bitch or any racial slurs then you just scroll down.

About 4 years ago I made the switch to e-cigarettes.
I knew they’d clamp down on them because they actually worked. So I bought about 10 years supply of nicotine.
My health improved out of sight in just the same way as when people give up smoking.
There are a few minor side effects to nicotine. It’s the hundreds and hundreds of other toxic chemicals in tobacco smoke that cause the damage.

Nicotine does NOT calm you down. You become addicted to nicotine and have withdrawl after an hour or so which makes you tense. Having a cigarette relieves that tension, thereby causing you to think they calm you down.
It’s a yo-yo merry-go-round existence 24hours a day, 7 days a week that’s almost impossible to jump off.

I’ve tried giving up e-cigarettes only once and only made it to the 6 day mark.
The strange thing is I had no desire at any level to smoke tobacco while I was giving up.

If you have any choice in the matter at all, give those filthy things the flick.

You already made the first step to quit smoking. Are you really sure you want to turn back? Because if you do, all this was for nothing.

It’s going to be easier refraining from smoking. You are just facing the challenge of getting over it.

Find other ways to calm the F down but it’s not smoking.

Hey dude hypnosis works really well (did for me), turns the addiction off in your mind like a light switch.

Lottery, REALLY??? Look at your lungs as you would a baseball glove,,, think of how a baseball glove will look in 20 or 30 years of catching b~~~~ that were sprayed with adhesive and rolled in broken glass!

Some people last longer than others, but smokers die sooner than most, and they suffer an awful death while living on compressed oxygen, and drowning in their own flem!

It’s the same as using a bug spray for an inhaler! When you’re smoking, you ARE killing yourself!

Give me one “LOGICAL” reason to smoke, and I’ll shoot it down with reality like using twin Browning’s on a turret to shoot paper targets 10 feet away!

My kayak partner smokes and has since age 12. I smoked a few times for 6 odd month stretches between 16 and 24 mostly during high stress periods. I always quit, because I noticed my aerobic performance would not be as good.

We are both 48 years old. He’s a better athlete than I. I am watching his endurance fade more by the year.

Habits of abuse tend to start hitting home in the mid-40s depending on your luck in the genetic draw. Learn about how the combustion product Carbon Monoxide binds to hemoglobin more efficiently than the Oxygen you need.

Smoking effects your entire body via multiple direct and indirect pathways..

Yes, it’s a bitch to quit. You know the risks.

Im going to pick up a creative hobby instead.

I have yet to be addicted to them its been off and on for the past 8 months.

Thanks

Well if I were you I would be more worried that I was in a job for the next 50 years that I hated?
As for smoking try to Vape when drinking,and make that a pleasure,that’s all I got.

Was cut and carried for a dozen years so therefore, twelve years a slave

Two of my uncles got penile cancer and ended up having surgery. Oh yeah one is dead with other complications and smoking was the cause.
