People know that the smoking habit causes lung cancer and other illnesses but still people smoke. It is also very expensive, here where I am one 20-cigarette pack costs 10 euros, I spend the same amount in my daily meals. I know many people, even professors who have died to lung cancer because they have smoked so much. Why do people still smoke?

It’s addicting and the withdrawal isn’t fun.

I know people who died of lung cancer and never smoked. It’s a force of habit and dependency.

I think most people start when they become teenagers and then get hooked. I guess they see others smoking cigs and think it must be pleasurable. Also that it makes them an adult. I think thats the reason i started, and i didnt think i would become addicted.

Yeah. It’s a bad addiction. Took me many years to break free from it.
Also expensive.
But I did have the feeling it helped in managing stress, but there are better techniques.

People can stop smoking. I remember when I came back to Finland from America 21 years ago I found my father smoking a lot. He just smoked cigarettes. Then he had to go to the hospital and after returning from the hospital I told him to stop smoking. And he stopped immediately and never smoked again. So people can stop smoking quite quickly.

most people engage in all kinds of self destructive behaviors theres no point in trying to figure out why some of the more obviously harmful ones are the way they are

Cigarettes are highly addictive and it’s hard to quit. I had withdrawals for years after quitting.
I haven’t smoked for 20 years.
I use swedish snus though but I’m going to quit soon.

Just fine. I googled vampire movies and watched a movie called invitation. It wasn’t good.
I also had some pizza.
Now I’m listening to music and relaxing while I’m enjoying tobacco. Lol!
How are you today @TheFountainPen? Up all night again?

I woke up at 1 am. That seems to be the time I get up these days.
Have exercised and studied already.
I go to bed early so I do get enough sleep.
