Nicotine

I am a long-term smoker, and I do not have plans to quit. That probably says it all. But, I am not blindly refusing to accept the negative effects on my health. Every drug (and nicotine as well) has two main dimentions, determinding its negative effect: addiction and tolerance. In terms of addiction, nicotine has the highest rank among drugs. In terms of tolerance, it is quite neutral. I am smoking the same amount of cigarettes a day for last 25 years, and I am not going to increase the amount since that "is not enough". Also, unlike most other drugs, cigarettes do not cause temporary or permanent mental impairment, so you cannot get DUI, while smoking in the car. Actually, when we review the negative impact of smoking for health, we talk mainly on nicotine. But that is hardly justify, because the cigarettes consist of multiple substance beyond nicotine, which proven to be a great harm. If I do understand the danger, why I do not plan to quit?

Helps me relax dammit!

I really love tobacco of all kinds and sorts.

Quick headrush then you're bumming.

I shouldn't be dropping opinions about something I don't do. I never decided to smoke. But I will say that it is a high risk of severe health problems you play and for what? What do you really get back from it, you don't get high. All you get, is the opportunity to spend a bunch of money on a habit that kills you. I'm not saying I'm against you if you smoke cigs, I'm just saying it doesn't make any sense to me. I've known so many people who just were going to smoke cigs occasionally and ended up being chain smokers. That can't quit. I've known people who've quit the most addictive drugs out there, but can't quit cigs.

BAD BAD BAD. DON'T CONSIDER IT A DRUG, THO. IF YOU CAN BE ADDICTED TO SOMETHIN', DOESN'T MEAN, IT'S A DRUG. IF SOME1 IS THINKIN ABOUT LOSERIN THE DRIN AGE TO 18.......THEY NEED TO THINK ABOUT RAISIN THE SMOKIN AGE TO 21.

god i need a smoke right now

Nothing wrong with a cigarette

Nicotine addiction is bad. I'm not going to say anything good about it. I smoke, and one of the worst decisions I have ever made in my life was the decision to smoke cigarettes. I wish I knew what I know now when I was younger. It's so hard to quit.

The ideal product in a puritanical corporate capitalist society.After the first couple of times, it doesn't get you high, but you're hooked!

I don't like it but I'm fucking addicted

YES YES YES

Yeah, I'm addicted... I know it's bad for my health. I hate that society didn't care that much when I was growing up.

I smoke already. I have been for 4 years. I hate it but its something i want to stop but its hard.

Good if you are a smoker...and if you don't mind dying from lung cancer.

I HATE CIGGARETZ!

definitly addicted...anyone know how to quit>???smokin one rite now..lol

The last acceptable addiction. Hopefully that will change soon, especially since it's also one of the few that can affect the health of those around you.

Man do i love a smoke and a drink.

Don't listen the b..... that doctors and goverment tells you, nicotine is very qood has anti-stress power and it's qood for brain system,that's why smokers are more intresting dudes.     Finally you save money from psychological "therapies",but too bad you give it to Philip Morris and the states.
