Oi you cheeky!! I smoke because i want to and even more so when im drinkin hehe just because you smoke a pipe every now and again :tongue::laugh:

Lance 28-06-2006 05:38 PM

I'm still baffled at why people say they "choose" to smoke?!:puzzled:

georgie121uk 28-06-2006 05:41 PM

its hard to explain to a non-smoker why smokers smoke.....
its almost impossabile to explain...once you have smoked before and you go out on a p*ss up i can garante you will need a cigerette and thats when smokers enjoy it

Legend 28-06-2006 05:53 PM

Ok, example...

Earlier i was getting annoyed by the slightest things and in such a vile mood, i had a ciggie and i'm a lot calmer. It calms you down a lot aswell as smoking more when you are drinking. Then again, that could be the same for people who drink alcohol though? Why do they 'choose' to? :tongue:

And you only have to have one aswell don't you, people who smoke 20/40 a day, i cannot understand that in the slightest tbh but some can't understand people who smoke not a lot though. :laugh:

Ella 28-06-2006 06:04 PM

I only really smoke when im stressed or drinking...Not 20+ a day though thats just weird lol

georgie121uk 28-06-2006 06:07 PM

yeah....i cnt see how people would start smoking 20+ a day
my max is proberly 10-12

BigSister 28-06-2006 06:07 PM

I'm don't even smoke that many tbh. A pack of 10 lasts me about 2 or 3 days. :tongue:

Ella 28-06-2006 06:39 PM

Lol a pack of twenty lasts me 3 days which is good i guess :tongue:

InTheHood 28-06-2006 06:47 PM

No, don't smoke.

I once told a friend who then contracted Lung Cancer, that it was his fault and he knew the risks and he wouldn't get any sympathy from me.

He hasn't spoken to me since. Can't think why :blush2:

It might sound harsh, but he's an intelligent bloke with a family, who might not last long enough to enjoy them, which is sad.

If people wish to do it, and not make me inhale their smoke, fine, but don't expect any sympathy when things go wrong :sad:

Thats not harsh.
Its the truth.
I dont smoke either, I think its stupid
Most teenagers smoke for attention
some cant help it though

Legend 28-06-2006 06:55 PM

People who drink alcohol but preech to smokers about smoking really pi$$ me off, have they not heard of alcohol damaging the liver? :rolleyes:

Mike 28-06-2006 07:06 PM

I don't smoke, had a few puffs about 3 years ago and hated it.

Because lighting that first ever fag is a choice - do I dont I? it gets harder to dont I though every time you have just one more!

I smoke in excess of 30 a day - not proud of it, know the risks, would not like to stop at this point in my life though! I dont smoke to look cool because it doesnt make you look cool, I dont smoke to fit in, I smoke purely and simply because I am addicted to nicotene and I actually enjoy a fag!

I tried to stop once a while a go and it wasnt pretty I can tell you, there should be some kind of rehab us smokers can go to lol!

I don't drink either :spin2:

My lifestyle does allow either, i've been bodybuilding for many years, so i'm well into a regime that won't allow me bad things.

Smoking & Alcohol are as bad as each other, in different ways.

Most people don't like the truth though.

I understand people trying it, it's when they get to 18 and still think it's cool that makes them look quite sad.

If people choose to smoke, then they know the consequences. I just hope they are fortunate enough, not to have to leave their loved ones to fight on after they have gone.

I remember my Grandfather dying when I was 11, due to smoking down the years. Devastated :bored:

As I say, down to the individual, but smoking. drinking, drugs, whatever, they know the dangers (well, most do) and it's their lives, but sometimes, it doesn't just affect them.

Ella 28-06-2006 08:32 PM

I know all the dangers of smoking and drinking, but i still do it and im 18 and dont do it to look ''cool'' smoking doesnt make you look cool or sexy or any of the reasons young kids may do it.But i would never ever ever touch drugs..although each carries there own risks, drugs just seem more dangerous and its illegal!!

You know the risks, so as long as it harms no-one else, then there isn't a problem :thumbs:

NHS smoking helpline may be able to help, I don't know, i've not smoked and I am unaware of what they do provide.

But if you are happy smoking, fair enough, it only affects you :thumbs:

Ella 28-06-2006 08:34 PM

I tried the NHS smoking website they can send you leaflets and posters and stuff, but most of the infomation they give you most people already know e.g the risks of cancer and stuff like that

A small amount of wine is meant to be good for you.

I see all the smokers/binge drinkers these days, and worry about there future kids.

In 10/20 years the NHS is going to be inundated, and there won't be enough room for everyone. :bored:

You're right, it's not cool or sexy, in fact the total opposite, but at 18, most people are trying it (or before)

It's later in life people pay for it.

It's a hard world, and some people survive. Both my Grandmothers were heavy smokers and they lived through 85.

Just basic rubbish then that everyone knows.

Doesn't surprise me.

I have some recent facts and figures somewhere from my practice, I just never read about smoking etc as I don't deal with it everyday.

Dan_ 28-06-2006 10:12 PM

I have never smoked, never seen the point in wasting money on them and I don't want to damage my health.

BB-Rocks 28-06-2006 10:30 PM

I used to smoke a few years ago when i was fifteen but i dont anymore to be honest i dont know why i did in the first place as i find them disguisting now. I think a lot of people feel they have to because their friends do which i find ridiculous:rolleyes:

I like to think that I am a "responsible smoker" if there is such a thing! I dont smoke in my house because I do not want my family having my 2nd hand smoke, plus I dont like the smell of it in houses :bored:

I hate restaurants that sit the smokers right next to the non smokers and in fact would always choose to sit in the no smoking section as it isnt very nice eating and tasting someone elses fags!

I have been to NHS smoking cessation groups and have to admit they were helpful but with lots of things happening in my personal lilfe I fell off the wagon so to speak. I use it as an emotional crutch to be honest :elephant:
