Smoking or Non-Smoking?
[size=10].[/size]
A somewhat loaded poll.
No doubt, this has been done before but times and people change.
I see non-smokers as weak.
Are you addicted to nicotene?
Some people call them cigarettes . . . I call them " Little Phillip Morris Blow-Jobs ". 
if you smoke after sex you are doing it too quickly…

I smoke, ciggarettes, some times a pack a day sometimes a pack every three or four days… For me it just depends what sort of stress I am under. For me, I would rather walk away and smoke, then stay and hurt someone out of stress or anger.
But, when I drink beer or coffee, wellllll, there is no denying that when you have one you must have the other. 
When I see a smoker use the word stress - I know that they really mean nicotine withdrawal.
Can you remember when you first started smoking?
Did you start because you were stressed?
I did smoke until last week… 20 years old and I was getting pains in my chest. Turned out to just be a chest infection but it scared me enough to realize it isn’t particularly worth it… even though I am really craving them right now lol
I started smoking pot originally through the stress of my parents splitting up in my mid teens but I stopped smoking pot and stuck with cigarettes.
I smoke. What of it?
Well done fool. You’re probably over the worst of the withrawal by now, though you won’t be fully out of the woods until you’ve passed the three month mark. Three months, that’s how long it takes for the dopamine receptors in your brain to get used to their new-found-freedom.
If you’re looking for something to do with your hands and mouth, might I suggest some ‘licorice chew sticks’ - google that shit, you’re looking for sticks of root from the actual licorice plant. Very tasty.
Nicotene is addicted to me.
Only problem as far as I can see is I despise liquorice…
If I keep myself out and active I’m alright. It appears to be more of a boredom thing than anything else. And my cravings increase tenfold after a drink or two.
I don’t get nic fits, I can go for days without smoking. When I say stress, I mean stress. Family problems, not the right things to do a job, bills, etc… everyday life buttons that cause stress. I have alot of patience with certain things and with others I have no patience. I suppose I started smoking around the time my folks divorced. It was not a very nice divorce.
So you can quit anytime you want to? Without any withrawal effects? And yet you don’t. You continue to inhale smoke particles, nanoparticle solids, deep into your lungs despite the overwhelming evidence that this is an idiotic way to use nicotine.
You’re an intelligent woman. Why can’t you think of a safer way to use your drug?
P.S. :
This is a video of a simple test that any smoker can do themselves —> youtube.com/watch?v=IQ4n7g31RlE
{ note that it is performed using a so-called filter-tipped cigarette }
Habits are hard to quit, even ones that are sporadic. Use my nicotine? I am not chewing. yuck, Its not the nic anyway its just the action and calming quiet introspection time, its my time out, my ,hold on i need a break and I need to do it with something that is a constant. Weak ,I know, stupid, I know that too, but, I can run a mile without stopping, carry fifty to 80 lbs uphill and not get winded. I run, lift, exercise every day. I have to, its my job. I am up at 3:30 to 4:00am every single morning and quit chores about 8 or 9 at night. Dude, I need a bad habit, a vice, it keeps me calm. :-"
I smoke a pack a day.
I see smoking as a choice. A bad one at that. Everybody knows what smoking does, it’s not some big secret. But still everyone has the personal freedom to make that choice. Do I think people who smoke are making a bad choice? Yes. But it’s their choice, not mine.
What I do object to is people forcing their smoke onto me. The smoking ban in Scotland is honestly one of the best piece of legislation I’ve ever experienced, and I truly believe it will be remembered as being as influential as the foundation of the NHS.
The only reasons why cigarettes help with stress are:
A.) You are replenishing the nicotine in your system, thus eliminating the withdrawal symptom that is the stress.
B.) Simple, you are taking deep breaths. Breathing deeply helps a lot with stress.
yea both those are reasonstoo for me, but, see, I have to walk away from my daily stresserouters because, I do not smoke in my home or in any building ,except my shop, … I get to take that 5 minute regroup calm down and think. My daily stresserouters do not follow me they stay inside… so I get quiet…
