| Well why else would you smoke? It's either to get high or to get cancer. Or in some cases to get high and assist in easing cancer if you live in a state where marijuana is medically legal. |

You want to keep your slaves alive and healthy, not slowly stinking away the place. Unless you're a necrophiliac. Then I'd have to tell you that you're a sick bastard that deserves every disease that you will contract. PSA: Necrophiliacs are worse than rapists. k? |
| Pretty sure you feeling relieved after smoking the first few times is a placebo effect. The rest is just nicotine addiction. |
| I never got the point of smoking cigarettes for most of my life, until recently. I stopped smoking weed about a year and a half ago, i'd smoke usually once every night about an hour before bed, when i'd smoke that was "my time" it was the only time of the day when i could think about what i was doing and aiming for in life, maybe just relax let go of any stress from the day, etc. Well when i stopped i felt that "my time" was gone, i no longer got the chance to just relax or contemplate on my life anymore so about 4 months ago a relative of mine visited and she had a electronic vapor pen and she let me try it and i really liked it it tastes good and you can get them with no nicotine, so i bought one a few weeks after that and even though it didn't make me high like pot just the act of doing that "smoking" or vaping really it was the same for me. I just needed that brief few minutes to sit there and blow smoke to center myself. I'd have to assume its the same for some people along with a mixture of chemical dependency. So it might not be that they even enjoy doing it, like with weed to be completely honest i think i enjoy getting high more then i did being high. Kinda how some people read a book or do yoga, i feel smoking is the same thing for some people its just 100x worse for you lol. |
| The human brain just loves those chemicals. Physical dependance is the result of our weakness to feel good chems. The tar and poison is just an added bonus! |

| I smoked cigarettes for a 2-3 years before completely dropping it. Well, I still have my last pack stored in my desk but I have no desire to smoke it, it's just there. I do remember growing a dependence where I would physically feel sick until I had a smoke; plus college and a long distance relationship had me beyond stressed. I didn't like people watching me smoke, it feels pretentious walking down the street blowing smoke in everyone's face. But I believe stress and appearance are usually the two reasons why people smoke. |
 |
| Because they are idiots. |

LadyRenly said: Usually the question shouldn't be why do people smoke, as it's fairly obvious:addiction. The question we should ask is "How did they start in the first place"? Rebellion? Curiosity? Either way, it all ends the same way. Curiosity, added with the fact that I thought it looked cool. I soon learnt it wasn't (and was also harming my best friend, who had nothing to do with me smoking), which caused me to stop. To any guys who are just curious; don't start. It tastes shit and it does nothing to help you. |

| Pretty much as a stress releiver. |

| I smoke when I'm with my friends. I can totally live without cigarettes, and never smoke when I'm home alone. So yeah, I guess it kinda has to do with peer pressure. But I don't feel forced to smoke because the others do, it's just that I like it, it's convivial and pleasant, outside, at a café, or during a party, I enjoy our "cigarettes-break" pretty much. As I said, I enjoy it, and don't feel dependence, so, I don't plan to stop so far. |
| Everyone who smokes needs to stop. That shit's poison, son. Look into ibogaine or ahayuasca if it's too hard to stop on your own. |
Mattogen said: I started because I got into a huge accident, wasn't sure if I could ever walk again, was depressed as fuck, needed something to help me relax. Now I just can't stop because of addiction. You need to stop. That shit's poison, son. |
| I'd do it to blow it in people's faces and laugh at them while they cough. Then die an early death. |
| Just like what the above users said. They think it relieves stress from what I've heard after I asked one of my friends who usually smoke. I'm never touching those cancer sticks though. |
 |
| I smoke cigars every once in a while. It's kinda pleasant, not addictive to me either since I've been doing this for ±2 years and I'm not dependant of them |

AsianKungFu said: Poitato said: goulartknight said: How do people get addicted to smoking? Because their body's crave nicotine. yeah nicotine is highly addictive. I saw a graph on Wikipedia showing heroine to be the only popular drug more addictive than nicotine. Scary stuff if you think about it since it's actually legal. |
| They usually start by curiosity or are influenced by their friends. Some think it's ''cool'', but one thing is certain, it's not very cool to get lung cancer and when you're smoking you're basically burning your money. |
 |
| My dad used to never smoke then some girl got him hooked like 3 years ago on it. So peer pressure is what got my dad to smoke. He started around age 40. |
 |
| Because people are easily influenced by others and have a strong desire to fit in, especially when they have no confidence. They pick up the habit to look cool/fit in, and the consequence is a money pit that causes a multitude of chronic health problems to themselves and those around them. There's also an addiction they've created. Most people think, "I can get over my addiction like an on/off switch," but that's not how the brain works. When you do something extensively that's become a part of your life, it becomes programmed into your brain and written into your system. You have created a tendency to desire something, no matter how many years pass, and will continue to pop up as a "consideration," whereas if you hadn't smoked, it wouldn't at all. |
| People think it's cool i guess, It's actually pretty lame. |
 |
| I smoke once in a awhile but never got addicted to it . Smoking after meals is best tho . |
| I used to smoke. I did for the same reason you did. To be part of a group, but later when I wasn't obliged to be part of it, I was smoking because of stress. That changed and I stopped smoking after breaking up with my ex because as it turns out, she was the cause for most of the stress. Good thing I broke up with her. American Spirit is expensive. |
| Just need to find out how to quote this every time so I can dodge the stupid 30-character limit. |
| I started to smoke because i mostly hung out with older kids and i thought it would make me seem less young. I still smoke when i drink put other than that i use e-cigs now |
| y'all niggas smoke to look cool? lol, that's lame |
 |
| No idea why I started, but it became a relaxing little ritual. Glad I managed to quit though. It's nasty and bloody expensive. |

Some new smokers get what's described as a 'nicotine buzz.' Though, I doubt that's what made them feel 'relieved' so it may very well have been placebo. I smoke strictly grass because it does provide relief and quite frankly hasn't killed a soul. On the other hand I could care less if someone wants to smoke cigarettes or not it's just not in my best interest to do harm to myself. |

iNaruX said: It was cool back in the day. I smoked for 2 years and then stopped. I've hear that people had problems with dropping it. Like wtf..just don't touch the cigarettes again? That's a very shallow approach you use. I admit you're sort of right though, cold turkey is the by far best method to actually quit, but it requires patience and isolation. Also a heck of a lot willpower. |

| Wouldn't consider myself the willpower type. I just weighed the consequences against the advantages and stopped smoking. 2 years of daily social-smoking gone and down the memory lane. |

| In Spain there was this show where people talked aboud their problems and stuff and there was this kid who was 13-14 and he said he smoked a lot and when the presenter asked him why did he smoked his answer was "to be cool" |
