If someone smokes every day for 40 years are the an addict? It is psychologically addicting. I’ve seen it happen. I didn’t say it should be illegal but the argument that it isn’t addicting is ludicrous. It destroys motivation in teenagers.
I’ve quit many times, either because I couldn’t find anything or couldn’t afford it. NO withdrawal symptoms whatsoever. Nothing. Oh well, have to go straight till I can find some..that’s it. Life goes on and I barely even notice.
Right now I think it’s been several months, I don’t know anyone around here who is into that and I won’t even think about looking on the street, bad idea. Didn’t bother me at all to run out and have to quit, and I only had a little then, a friend gave me half of one he had already started. I had to play that night, I never touch it onstage. That inch long piece of one lasted a week. When it was gone, same as usual, oh well gotta do without. That’s it.
I’ve never known anyone who said any different, and have known at least a dozen people who would quit intentionally a couple of times a year to dry out for a few days. No physical withdrawal at all. As I already said more than once, it is NOT physically addictive, that was proven a long time ago. If you think otherwise, you’ve been fed propaganda. I’ve smoked daily for several years at a time, had to quit, and no problem at all. Nothing. Oh well, I’m out. That’s it. No physical symptoms whatsoever. The idea that it’s addicting is propaganda, plain and simple.
It is psychologically addicting.
many people are psychologically addicted to many things...simply means they lack discipline, which is admittedly very difficult to maintain..
It destroys motivation in teenagers.
bored teenagers...? who ever heard of such a thing...?
Hell must be frozen cause I’m with you on this. Dope is for dopes.
