It's the delivery method that's bad for you, and big tobacco has been adding chemicals to their cigarettes to increase dependency since the 1960's. A recent study was done on the "bargain priced cigarettes" and the analysis showed that over 80% of the "tobacco" was actually cabbage that had absorbed nicotine amongst a plethora of other chemicals which were shown to release Oxytosin, dopamine and seratonins in the brain.
Smoke weed, live to old age.
I feel sorry for everyone who has a monkey on their back. I know people have free will but...
I have an older friend who was a heroin addict. She's been clean & straight for as long as I've known her and she told me a few years ago that quitting heroin was easier than quitting tobacco. I've never forgotten that. Nicotine is a drug worse than the big H. Man. That's some shit.
But that wasn't my point... Carrie's battles with substance abuse was no secret and she was clean when her mom died. Coke, heroine and ecstasy sounds like a perfect suicide cocktail.
