Member Topic : smoking cigarettes - Page 7

I smoked 1-2 in my teen years. I don’t smoke but I like the smell. But I know it’s bad so never tried except that one time with a friend when we were curious and wanted to try. Addiction is scary and sad.

I don't believe them lol

You are projecting. Smoking rates have decreased a lot over the years especially in the US. I just checked global stats as well and yes same story there, in general, especially for countries with similar socioeconomic demographics. Of course there is an unequal pace in decline between countries but in general there is a steady drop.

This topic wasn’t about alcohol.

Smoking's a filthy habit.

Strokes, you could lose your eyes, throat cancer, lung cancer, COPD, you could end up on oxygen and gasping for air, heart attacks, ulcers, throwing up blood, you could lose your kidneys, dialysis three times a week, you could develop blockages in peripheral circulation, you could lose your legs and end up in wheelchair...

People have been figuring this out over the last 2 decades. Hence the rates are going down.

😆 Sorry, you touched a nerve re: smoking. I do agree with you about people lying re: drinking. Alcohol use rate among Indians is pretty up there. I don't have an issue with peeps indulging as long as it doesn't become a habit. I can't hold my drink and hate losing control so that curiosity ended with my first sip of wine.

It was a big sip. 😆 it affects my gastro tract. 5 minutes in the bathroom, and I was feeling dizzy too. Weird feeling... like my limbs were moving independently of my brain.
