that's really really interesting, i sometimes feel the same way, i thought I was the only one this whole time.

caffeine sometimes has a similar effect on me too

it's a blessing in disguise because it makes it easier to quit them

Maybe it's just my computer, but the poll says I can't vote until 4:28 AM. :shrug:

yeah, i have no idea why that happens.

when i made the poll, the only thing i did was check the 'must vote to view results' box.

i didnt specify any beginning or end date



i did just try editing the poll to start from OCT 2 instead of OCT 3 and that didnt fix it

When I was smoking, yes they calmed me down. I don't think it was the cigarettes themselves as much as it just meant I'd sit my uppity ass down and take a few dozen breaths to get over the initial rage. Same goes for anxiety, it's just a different end of the spectrum.

I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today.
Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear.
I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.

I only really enjoy smoking cigarettes when I'm on a cocktail of potent drugs, which is only once in a blue moon nowadays

But as a regular everyday pack a day smoker I hated it, and every cigarette I smoked made me hate myself more and more

It wasn't always like that though, I smoked for years without feeling that guilt, then I had an extremely powerful solo acid trip and it flipped a switch in my brain and ever since that night I came to hate being a smoker, I came to hate being hardly able to breathe or taste food, I came to hate being dragged out in the cold every 15 minutes for something that was fucking killing me anyway

But I couldn't quit cold turkey

I tried, many many times but it was never a realistic solution for me.. I always cracked

Then I bought a vaporizer and suddenly I didn't need cigarettes anymore

Fast forward 11 months to now and physically I feel so much better I can't even begin to describe it

Thanks man

I'm not gonna go around trying to convince smokers to start vaping anymore, but honestly it is a really fucking good idea

I didn't really have faith in it as a smoker but once I got a good device with good juice that was it, I was free of my addiction to tobacco

Granted I didn't truly quit, I merely replaced one addiction for another, and I admit to that

But the way I look at it is I never truly quit nicotine, I simply switched to a safer, more effective method of delivery

As a smoker your nicotine levels are constantly rising and falling like the crests and troughs of a wave, this causes the anger, irritability, withdrawals, cravings etc.

As a vaper my nicotine levels are highly consistent throughout the day, I do not go through vape withdrawal, I can go all day without vaping and all I get is a slight craving to have a vape

Don't get me wrong vapes are definitely highly addictive, nicotine in general is an extremely addictive drug but it is not harmful to the body when ingested through vapor

I smoke when I'm really upset, on a rare occasion. It does calm me down. :smoker:

I once thought they helped.
Now three years no cigs I realize they didn't really do nothing for me.

Has for the poll it's the start time that's your issue.

Pretty much exactly this.  If I'm so sad I'm bawling and I go sit down outside and have a cigarette, it calms me down.  I don't know how much of the calming effect is actually from the cigarrette, but the entiety of the act itself calms me.

It works if I'm raging mad. Idk about for general anxiety though.

But if I get really angry, and I smoke a cigarette, the first hit will usually calm me down.

i actually just quit 4 days ago for this specific reason, besides the obvious health issues. every single cigarette jacked my anxiety up 10x unless i was with a close friend, even if i was alone. they actually relaxed me before i quit the first time, so i dont know what happened. all i know is no moar tobacco for me :thumbup:

Cigarettes make me concentrate
All in all I feel like I am much sharper if I smoke while doing something
however a E-Cig just doesn't enhance my attention to detail and thoroughness the same way a cigarette will. My art suffered a bit when I moved to E-Cig.

Apparently they are also nootropics.

I love cigarettes and smoking but it is a nasty, harmful and sometimes disgusting habit.

in the short run, while u're smoking them, yes. but in the long run they just worsen ur anxiety.

the cigarettes are the reason why u feel the need to smoke cigarettes when u're anxious, they play both sides of the fence. they are the disease and the cure.

I dropped the smokes and picked up the vape. I use no flavour and strong juice with a high quality vaporiser. Kicks ass all over the smokes and it's not killing me with tar also. Win win.

Nicotine is a stimulant. When I quit a heavy cig habit after 18 years I felt tired for months.
