Do you smoke?

nope ^_^ tho ive tried way back my junior years..bout twice and then gave up..lol

I hear quitting is very hard.

I smoked 17 a day and gave up five years ago.

They are now 52p each

At 17 a day over 5 years I have saved £16,088

I've never tried it, and I never want to.

Yeah lots of things are fascinating Mup.

Many far more interesting than smoke.

Fascinating has too positive of a connotation for me to refer to it as such =p

I've been researching "Vape" or E cigarettes.
I guess there are very few scientific conclusions.
this is just p[art of what I have so far.

Electronic Cigarettes

World cloud about electronic cigarettes. Facts, truths, questions, answers, ecigarettes. Learn more at www.BeTobaccoFree.gov.

Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) are battery operated products designed to turn nicotine and other chemicals into a vapor. You then inhale the vapor. These products are often made to look like:
•Cigarettes
•Cigars
•Pipes
•Pens

E-Cigarettes may contain ingredients that are known to be toxic to humans. Because clinical studies about the safety of e-cigarettes have not been submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), you have no way of knowing:
•If they are safe
•Which chemicals they contain
•How much nicotine you are inhaling

Nicotine is a highly addictive substance. Additionally, these products may be attractive to kids. Using e-cigarettes may lead kids to try other tobacco products—including conventional cigarettes—which are known to cause disease and lead to premature death.

With e-cigarettes there are many unknowns, including the unknown health effects of long-term use. Currently, there are no e-cigarettes approved by FDA for therapeutic uses so they cannot be recommended as a cessation aid. For smokers who want to quit cigarettes there are FDA approved treatments which have been proved to be safe and to work, including:
•Nicotine gum
•Nicotine skin patches
•Nicotine lozenges
•Nicotine oral inhaled products
•Nicotine nasal spray
•Zyban
•Chantix

I'm glad this came up here.

I knew that regular cigarettes were dangerous, but I didn't know how much.

No one in our immediate family smokes that I am aware of.

But maybe years ago they did, IDK.

I'm even a little concerned about weed now.

"Does anyone actually believe people would smoke if it was easy to stop?

These people need looking after, not down on.

They need our sympathy, not our contempt".

I won't sit outside to eat, near a smoker.
People are not allowed to smoke in my car, apartment, etc.

They throw their cigs all over our beaches, parks, etc.

I find them hard to care for.

Mmmuthd you MMup.

I gggueth I thspoke too thoon.

The thing is once you start looking down at smokers for their weakness, where do you stop?

You are not getting it.

You may one day.

Despite being an ex smoker, I still don't mind the smell of people smoking.

"as for these e cigs. ugh really? can anyone tell me what the point is in giving up smoking 10 a day just to have a crappy electronic/vape cig hanging out of your gob ALL DAY EVERY DAY"

Hahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

good ones B
