I have avoided cigarette smoke for years because the smell alone takes me back to my mom. She disappeared almost a decade ago - addiction, homelessness, then eventually oblivion. Today I hit a low point and bought a pack of American Spirits. I've never smoked a cigarette in my life, but for some reason I just missed my mom so bad I wanted to smell cigarette smoke. I've gotten 3 puffs in and I can't finish it. I looked up videos like this to snap me back into reality, but something just got me today. Some weird compulsion. I understand why people find it so hard to quit now.

smoking became a large parte of my adolescence, i made my mom quit when i was 12, but, suddenly at 16 i went directly into it, due to many reasons including heavy trauma and abuse it seemed like an escape, and mostly because it felt like it would distance me from the reality i was living, one guy offered it to me in an event and i just accepted it; yes, i hated it, the physical part of it, smoking, feeling the hot cigarette on my lips, and that nasty tasting air on my mouth, but for no reason more than accompanying the guy that offered it i kept going, and suddenly it became a real problem, i smoked until 19 and decided to quit, and i did. i spent a year and half or so free but suddenly something terrible happened and i fell back into it, my mom started smoking too, so, the presence of the smell lit that desire in my, somehow i quit smoking again by sheer will, and now at 22 I'm back at it again, wanting to quit once more, i regret that i let myself get into a substance i had and have no desire to actually want and crave, hopes i can stop again, and never go back.

I think the reason I started 45 years ago was that so many adults smoked, you almost grew up expecting that when you became an adult you would smoke. The hippest people smoked and the nerds and bookworms didn't. When most adults smoked, things like the smell weren't even a factor. That smell was just a part of life.

Smoking made me paranoid. Nicotine is a stimulant drug. Since it’s a stimulant how in the world is it gonna relieve stress? That is like taking Caffeine to go to sleep. It only relieves the stress of not having a cigarette when you smoke one. The only reason smokers smoke is to end the edgy, insecure feeling that the previous cigarette created.

There are a few benefits to smoking. 1. Reduced sense of taste -Less desire to eat which leads to weight loss and can help to keep you skinny. -Bad or very strong tasting foods are now more palatable. 2. Reduced Sense of Smell -Makes working, traveling, or living in foul smelling places bearable. 3. Stimulates your brain -Helps you concentrate on tasks for longer. -Helps to keep you awake longer. 4. Increases your blood pressure: -Some people have very low blood pressure, which can become a major medical problem. This especially effects people older than 60 believe it or not. Smoking has lots of harmful side effects but you have to ask yourself the question: why have humans historically smoked tobacco for thousands of years? My theory is that in extreme moderation it can be beneficial to people.

I started smoking when I was 15, and to this day, still do so heavily at the age of 40. I'll admit that doing so for the cool factor was the biggest reason why I initially began to, back when smoking was far more acceptable, and could smoke virtually anywhere (whether it was inside, or outdoors) unlike now, with how many restrictions there are on where you can, and can't smoke. The fact that it was cheap back then was another factor too. That and it did feel kind of great to be doing something which I technically wasn't supposed to do for the first time in my life, I.E. the "forbidden fruit effect/theory." I also began smoking in order to look older, as I hated it, and would kill my self-esteem when I'd get mistaken for being somewhat younger than my age. That of which was almost always the case until I was able to grow a full thick beard when I was 17. Being able to take extra breaks (albeit only quick ones at a time) at the job I had at the time was also nice because of this habit, which made me love working there, unlike the previous year as well! The other major motivation as to why I became a smoker was the fact that I desperately do NOT want to live to be ancient, with how that horrifying possibility literally scares me ten times worse than death! I figured taking up smoking was one way to MAKE SURE that doesn't dare happen on my end for that matter either! L.O.L.!

I've been smoking for many years, and there are many ways to answer "why people still smoke." It has hundreds of factors involved, an individuals daily cigarette consumption, how often they go between cigarettes, etc, among many, many other factors. I smoke because it's just something Ive always done, I enjoy the taste of tobacco, the physical aspect of whipping out my zippo to light one up and also it does in fact help you concentrate, and alleviate stress in certain high stress situations there is no denying that. I smoke about a pack a day, and I can comfortably go 4 hours without even thinking about it. I'm in a very good mood overall and I'm rarely ever stressed out, so really smoking has been something that's been part of my life for so long, it would just feel so weird to not smoke.

Smoking is based on the need to breathe. Fulfilling any need is a pleasure. Breathing is a semi-automatic action. Air alone is not visible. But the smoke makes the act of breathing visible and acts almost like adding color and flavor to the drink.

I'm fully aware of the poison that is tobacco and the horrors of addiction. Yet the poison smells good, the deaths caused yearly make it seem more compelling, the gears of capitilism slowly crushing me between their teeth. Complacency is easy in a world that seeks to take advantage of you, the smallest of escapes becomes the only reprieve amongst a life of torment and self hatred. I don't smoke but often wish I could pick up the habit for these reasons. Despite my knowledge of it's immense dangers and the reality that my romanticization of tobacco is wrong about one thing: it's not very fun.

I have avoided cigarette smoke for years because the smell alone takes me back to my mom. She disappeared almost a decade ago - addiction, homelessness, then eventually oblivion. Today I hit a low point and bought a pack of American Spirits. I've never smoked a cigarette in my life, but for some reason I just missed my mom so bad I wanted to smell cigarette smoke. I've gotten 3 puffs in and I can't finish it. I looked up videos like this to snap me back into reality, but something just got me today. Some weird compulsion. I understand why people find it so hard to quit now.

This man is otally right. I quit smoking a couple of month ago, and I feel less stress
smoking became a large parte of my adolescence, i made my mom quit when i was 12, but, suddenly at 16 i went directly into it, due to many reasons including heavy trauma and abuse it seemed like an escape, and mostly because it felt like it would distance me from the reality i was living, one guy offered it to me in an event and i just accepted it; yes, i hated it, the physical part of it, smoking, feeling the hot cigarette on my lips, and that nasty tasting air on my mouth, but for no reason more than accompanying the guy that offered it i kept going, and suddenly it became a real problem, i smoked until 19 and decided to quit, and i did. i spent a year and half or so free but suddenly something terrible happened and i fell back into it, my mom started smoking too, so, the presence of the smell lit that desire in my, somehow i quit smoking again by sheer will, and now at 22 I'm back at it again, wanting to quit once more, i regret that i let myself get into a substance i had and have no desire to actually want and crave, hopes i can stop again, and never go back.
I think the reason I started 45 years ago was that so many adults smoked, you almost grew up expecting that when you became an adult you would smoke. The hippest people smoked and the nerds and bookworms didn't. When most adults smoked, things like the smell weren't even a factor. That smell was just a part of life.

Some people are just more sensitive, and therefore are easily affected by stress. And the cravings, both mental and physical, are very real.
Smoking made me paranoid. Nicotine is a stimulant drug. Since it’s a stimulant how in the world is it gonna relieve stress? That is like taking Caffeine to go to sleep. It only relieves the stress of not having a cigarette when you smoke one. The only reason smokers smoke is to end the edgy, insecure feeling that the previous cigarette created.
$16.50 a pack ( Canadian) did it for me. That was March 2022.
I once smoked and I absolutely hated it and couldn’t quit, from sheer luck I quit and even though I hate it my mind want’s one and crave’s it.

There are a few benefits to smoking. 1. Reduced sense of taste -Less desire to eat which leads to weight loss and can help to keep you skinny. -Bad or very strong tasting foods are now more palatable. 2. Reduced Sense of Smell -Makes working, traveling, or living in foul smelling places bearable. 3. Stimulates your brain -Helps you concentrate on tasks for longer. -Helps to keep you awake longer. 4. Increases your blood pressure: -Some people have very low blood pressure, which can become a major medical problem. This especially effects people older than 60 believe it or not. Smoking has lots of harmful side effects but you have to ask yourself the question: why have humans historically smoked tobacco for thousands of years? My theory is that in extreme moderation it can be beneficial to people.
@Riplee
Жыл бұрын
All of those things can be had in healthier ways. And "extreme moderation" is a contradiction. Any perceived benefits don't outweigh the negatives, in particular to others you can affect. Humans weren't civilized for far longer, perhaps we should all consider nomadism?
I am 38 and i have only recently started smoking that too occasionally. Honestly, I don't see what's enjoyable in it. It goes well with liquor i guess but that's about it, not a big fan of smoking for sure.
41 and never even tried one. But my whole family basically did so what I can tell is that most were so busy in their day to day lives that the stress relief I've seen is them just taken that 5 minutes to have one . All I can think . except when they low on money then the stress comes back even more worst then jus wanting one cause they either have to borrow or get out to buy em kinda thing .. idk jus what I've seen .
Cigarette has a lot of stimulants in it. After smoking a cigarette you get a bit cognitive energy that’s helps you to control over stress. (Temporarily) But there are many healthier ways to overcome such conditions. Such as, a good sleep at night, be good on essentials like 1. good vitamins inn take 2. Good and balanced in take of proteins and carbs 3. Good omegas inn take 4. Good probiotics inn take.
very good reason
There is that nicotine buzz that people who smoke can obtain. It’s not the nicotine itself that’s the problem it’s all the chemicals and additives that are added to the cigarettes. If I had control over the tobacco industry for a day I’d get rid of all the additives known to cause cancer.
I find it so dispicable that some people to this day (14th September 2023) still puff away like chimneys despite all the danger warnings that have gone on for decades. Also, smoking is not cool, never was.

I started smoking when I was 15, and to this day, still do so heavily at the age of 40. I'll admit that doing so for the cool factor was the biggest reason why I initially began to, back when smoking was far more acceptable, and could smoke virtually anywhere (whether it was inside, or outdoors) unlike now, with how many restrictions there are on where you can, and can't smoke. The fact that it was cheap back then was another factor too. That and it did feel kind of great to be doing something which I technically wasn't supposed to do for the first time in my life, I.E. the "forbidden fruit effect/theory." I also began smoking in order to look older, as I hated it, and would kill my self-esteem when I'd get mistaken for being somewhat younger than my age. That of which was almost always the case until I was able to grow a full thick beard when I was 17. Being able to take extra breaks (albeit only quick ones at a time) at the job I had at the time was also nice because of this habit, which made me love working there, unlike the previous year as well! The other major motivation as to why I became a smoker was the fact that I desperately do NOT want to live to be ancient, with how that horrifying possibility literally scares me ten times worse than death! I figured taking up smoking was one way to MAKE SURE that doesn't dare happen on my end for that matter either! L.O.L.!

Fair enough once I became fully addicted I understand when you hadn’t had one in a couple hours maybe it felt great being able to smoke one but that was a completely different feeling you get when you have a cigarette when your truly stressed like before an exam or you’ve just heard some pretty harsh news or you’ve got to make deadlines that are near impossible to make.

I've been smoking for many years, and there are many ways to answer "why people still smoke." It has hundreds of factors involved, an individuals daily cigarette consumption, how often they go between cigarettes, etc, among many, many other factors. I smoke because it's just something Ive always done, I enjoy the taste of tobacco, the physical aspect of whipping out my zippo to light one up and also it does in fact help you concentrate, and alleviate stress in certain high stress situations there is no denying that. I smoke about a pack a day, and I can comfortably go 4 hours without even thinking about it. I'm in a very good mood overall and I'm rarely ever stressed out, so really smoking has been something that's been part of my life for so long, it would just feel so weird to not smoke.

@@Fabifabiguden I smoked my last cigarette in early April 2022. I quit cold turkey. Since quitting, I have actually never craved a cigarette. I am probably a lot older than you. In my day, it was normal to smoke. Most of my friends did. Those were in the good old days when people lived and let live. These days, there is a perpetual war on smoking. It really annoys me. Why? Because these days, young people do far worse things that smoke cigarettes. These days, they're into drugs and all sorts. All I have ever done in my life is enjoy a few cigarettes and enjoy a few drinks. Nothing stronger. By the way, I have never vaped; and nor do I ever intend to. I think vaping is far, far worse than smoking cigarettes. In fact my opinion was validated today when I watched a very informative video on the dangers of vaping. Many people who vape are vaping all day long. That is not usually the case with a regular cigarette By the way, it is good that you never took up the smoking habit. You have saved yourself a lot of money.

Thank god I've never smoked and never will smoke
My parents smoked in the house, car, hospital room. I'm 41. I smoke. I guess I been smoking 41 yrs
The reason people still smoke is because we are supposed to. The reason people quit smoking is the same. The illusion is free will. Here are 2 objectively true facts: 1. A person "Can" quit smoking. 2. Humanity "Can Not" quit smoking. It's pointless to try to disprove either one of these facts. Even if you can get a few people to quit, more will start faster than you can stop the others. Catering to nonsense like this video just feeds right into the trap they have set for you.

Where is it written anywhere that we are SUPPOSED to smoke? I call BS on that part of your statement. Smoking is a choice, not a necessity. Also your statement of free will being an illusion is bullshit too.
I will soon be 50, I have never smoke in my life, I watched my mom's dad suffer until de died in 1997 at age 71. He was on oxygen from about 1990 til his death.
@refink33 But he did say that Nicotine was addictive and that physical withdrawal does happen. He even mentioned the same thing about lighting up to fix the craving. He then went on though to point out that the withdrawal is small enough that smokers sleep through it every night. I'm guessing that maybe you didn't watch the whole thing? Oh, and congrats on quiting! Though I realize this comment is a year late for everything. lol
i smoked since i was 16, it wasn't much maybe 3 - 4 cigarettes a day. I played soccer but I havent noticed any effects on my endurance.i quit at 21. What do you think, how much damage did i do to myself ?

Mild permanent damage
I am not sure this is correct even with my first cigarettes where I wasn't addicted at all I immediately felt the stress relief and that also applies for many people I have asked. im not saying nic withdrawal isn't stressful im saying it's a combination of the relief of the withdrawal and the stress of everyday life that keeps people smoking
i smoke part time no problems. nicotine dilates the vegus nerve which can eleviate tension from time to time.
I smoke because I got bored lol I was waiting for the bus after work and basically said "imma try a cigarette" smoked 5 ciggs over a few days - eh, didn't thrill me much

Quit before you're addicted. 2000 chemicals in each, hundreds of cancer carcinogens. The cost, the dive in your health (run away) smoking guarantees tooth loss & a very busy dentist. Higher insurance premiums and a guaranteed sickness later on. A woman I know, never smoked ever and she just developed emphysema, just from 2nd hand smoke. I watched someone die of lung cancer, worst experience ever. Horrendous
Wheres the whole video??
I smoked from 12 year old till 25 then quit for 7 years then picked it up for 6 months reread the Allan car book and quit again about a month now miss it once in a while mostly boredom tho

where did you get your cigarettes at 12? Steal them from your parents?
I'm only saying this in the simplest form,smokers know what it can do to them,but are they forgetting something themselves
I smoke because I enjoy it. It’s not any belief that it does something per se.
I love that he’s understanding and doesn’t shame the smoker to quit
It’s the same reason as why do people drink soda and eat junk food even tho they know it’s not good for them.
Most people who give up smoking immediately take up smugging.. up to 40 smugs a day regardless of passive smug victims
The best part of my day going outside right away every morning. Already have my Newport in my mouth ready to light up
Smoking is based on the need to breathe. Fulfilling any need is a pleasure. Breathing is a semi-automatic action. Air alone is not visible. But the smoke makes the act of breathing visible and acts almost like adding color and flavor to the drink.

no, it's the nicotine hitting your brain
I'm fully aware of the poison that is tobacco and the horrors of addiction. Yet the poison smells good, the deaths caused yearly make it seem more compelling, the gears of capitilism slowly crushing me between their teeth. Complacency is easy in a world that seeks to take advantage of you, the smallest of escapes becomes the only reprieve amongst a life of torment and self hatred. I don't smoke but often wish I could pick up the habit for these reasons. Despite my knowledge of it's immense dangers and the reality that my romanticization of tobacco is wrong about one thing: it's not very fun.
but i think some of the smokers do have the reason of looking cool or a smart gesture through cigratte while holding and take it to the mouth for inhaling. And there some multiple reason to smoke like addiction to the nicotine thats the well known reason among the public for why people smoke.

I wish I had smoked years only to look cool. Dumb statement. Perhaps that's what gets you to try it, but before long like xrack, you're addicted. Government should outlaw them.
When I was a kid, I see a pack of cigs? YEET to the trash. I did this to my parents, and in 1 month they stopped it. And they were feeling better than ever.
@CaptainAmerica322 It releases those chemicals in an unnatural, unregulated way. The body knows that something is wrong, and as a result of being in this state of distress, it unleashes adrenaline as well.
It ruined my life at 40. Smoked 10-15 a day for 20 years. Hit me at 39-3 years after I quit. Look up chronic bronchitis. It's absolutely miserable
To anyone who finds my comment please: eliminate pork, sugar, redmeat, candy, sweets, processed food and fried foods from your diet and drink herbel tea's, Blessed Be.
I NEVER SMOKED..I THING I WANT TO TRY..
ya know, here's something that almost every non-smoking propaganda fails to explore or recognize....some people LIKE TO SMOKE. yeah, that's right, they just smoke because they enjoy it, no other reason. i know its so simple it must be hard to believe right? most non-smokers even have an occasional cigar, but why? most non-smokers are drinkers, but why? we all know the horrible effects of alcoholism, easily far worse than the effects of smoking, and yet people still participate in that.
Actually nicotine withdrawl is so mild you can barely notice it. It's not the physical withdrawl that is the problem, It's the mental withdrawl. That's what makes stopping smoking diffiuclt.

some chain smokers are so addicted, they only time they DON'T smoke is when they are sleeping, some can eat and smoke and go to the bathroom at the same time. Of course, to do this you need to be in a place that allows smoking all day like a private residence, the worst thing smokers can have is free time on their hands. You're paying for chain smokers on welfare.........

Society is so contradicting and stupid. We say smoking is bad for you, we say alcohol is bad for you but it’s legal. We have fast food restaurants, supermarkets filled with junk foods everywhere and it’s all legal but weed which is meant to calm and heal you illegal? I always though something wasn’t right with this world.
Oh I see once they stop smoking their true personalities come out
