It does. There are increased levels of DHT in smokers. Also, nicotine itself causes vasoconstriction... the blood supply to hair follicles is jeoparidized. If you haven't had a cigarette for a while, hold your thumb out and pinch the tip, including the nail, for a few seconds with the thumb and index finger of your other hand. Notice it only takes a few seconds for the red color (blood) to return under the thumb nail. Now, smoke a cigarette and repeat the experiment... take note of the increased amount of time it takes for the blood to return.

I hate cigarettes.
I want one so bad... but i have to be strong.
The positive outcomes, like not getting cancer, completely outweigh the feeling of getting a nicotine fix but it's still so hard.

That sucks...I've never been addicted to cigs so I really can't give any real advice. A lot of people who have never smoked go "ahhh common just quit its easy blah blah blah" But I imagine its harder than that...so I'll keep my mouth shut.

I bought a pack the other day when I was drunk, smoked one cigarette, and now the rest of the pack is just sitting on my windowsill saying "pleeease smooooke meeee." It's driving me insane.



toss them out
u obviously only want them when ur drunk, which is good moderation i think unless ur drunk 24/7
weed is the best solution to get off something so addictive
i new some1 who weened off meth by blazin all day like the way i do
thats prolly why im not addicted to anything else




Weed was what allowed me to quit WoW.

I was a pack a day smoker for 5 years. Tried quitting many times like you've said and it was tough but that was because I had no self-control or enough will to stop. Than i decided in november or so that i would enjoy cigarettes for the rest of year and then that would be the end. If you can't stick to your own promise you're disrespecting yourself. You'll even feel... more alive after quitting. You'll probably see that there is really nothing beneficial from smoking cigarettes. stopping cold turkey is best way to quit IMO. hope this helps. peace

After 18 years you tend stop feeling a buzz and just continue killing your body. You should respect your body because it's doing no good for it and doing nothing for your mind except relieving your cravings which you shouldn't have in the first place. It's an unhealthy addiction, sorry i try to see what's actually true and correct myself. And since your smoking for 18 years makes your opinion on quitting better than mine? At a pack a day i still believe i have experienced what it is like to be addicted nicotine.

Everything kills you in some way because your using your body (wear and tear) but many benefits can come from what's killing you... smoking doesn't do that. You are quite the close minded individual where you think a newbie to a WEBSITE makes an opinion less valid, what a mature thought. I wish you luck if you ever try to quit smoking cigarettes, just trying to help you see a bigger picture man. Peace

you disappoint me man. all im trying to do is help you but you saty in your close-minded world where you want to hate on some with a low post count. my post count has no correlation with my intelligence... did you bother to think about that. if you don't like my take on quitting than just say so, but don't question my validity on a subject due to amount of cigarettes smoked and post counts. ever hear of qualitative versus quantitative?
