  • @canihaveanid That is VERY true. What people don't understand is the big thing is the nicotinic receptors that are activated are excitatory. In the simple state, it's activating your motivation/reward pathway, in a MUCH stronger sense than (for example) chocolate makes you happy. So you are very right, it's extremely hard. And koodos to you for quitting! Your body will really thank you for it!!!

  • She's SMOKING hot!

  • @Fiddich123 Nope, Indonesian 2 year olds smoke

  • the makeup artist is great :D

  • @123ecs And where did you dig up *that* fascinating fact?

  • @mcrsexonlegshxc Your book lacks physical dependence to a chemical. Hence your conclusion is bias to the belief that "addiction" is weakness, and ignorant to the fact that "nicotine" connects to receptors located deep inside the brain and enduces a "pleasure" hormone. I was once an addicted smoker. I quit a year and a half ago. Let me tell you this, addiction doesn't happen over night. It happens after several inhalations of nicotine. Quitting is a real challenge for those who are addicted.

  • I don't get how people get addicted, addiction is just a state of mind in my book

  • thats pretty good self control, a friend of mine bought an electric cigarette to quit smoking u dont need to light it and u can get them nicotine-free and they only produce water vapor. its good for ppl who dont want the nicotine and just like the activity of smoking.

  • People in Japan smoke 3 times as much as Americans, and have virtually no heart disease because they eat 3 grams of seaweed per day.

  • I smoke 1 cig/day, cant seem to get totally rid of it, but I keep that as a max
