They also put the legal age for buying cigarettes up from 16 to 18, which also made a huge impact. I mean, if someone's addicted and they have the money, sure, they'll keep buying. And it won't make a day-to-day difference, of course not, but when the prices go up, especially during this economy, people start to evaluate their budgets and stuff and a lot of people have stopped smoking.. Or moved on to the cheap brands. |

wanderlust Addict Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 10418 | ^It isn't illegal to smoke in certain locations though? Like here, it's illegal to smoke in any restaurants, schools, and most business places, and idk other circumstances as well that I can't remember. |

GeekStinkBreath21 Shoot Me, I'm A Newbie Age: - Gender: - Posts: 9 | Umm.. it's a personal choice isn't it? Women shouldn't smoke when pregnant, by my moral standards though. Can't that cause issues? Shouldn't they be better informed? It's stupid how they would perhaps cost their child some quality for dragging on a cigarette. |

Kat Von Lee Shoot Me, I'm A Newbie Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 40 | I smoke every once in a while, despite the health risks. Sure, you can get cancer. But I only smoke when I'm way stressed out. And I figure the health risks from being way stressed out are about the same as those of smoking a cigarette here or there. I might as well enjoy my menthols instead of being all tense. |

Ensiferum Jackass Age: 29 Gender: Female Posts: 1694 | I took up smoking quite a lot when I was depressed and stressed out, it relaxed me but only for a short amount of time. The first time I found it hard to stop because when I stopped I realized that I was more stressed when I wasn't smoking. But I just refused to smoke any more cigarettes until I felt better in the end. I did take it up a second time but then I found it easy to stop because I guess I just thought about the time when I was younger I disliked smoking and couldn't see how people could get addicted to it. When things worked out for me I stopped because of the health risks. I never smoked around anyone else that didn't like it, I'd usually ask the other person if they'd prefer me to go stand somewhere else. I don't like it when my friends only smoke because they think it's a social thing and that it looks "cool" to have a burning cigarette in their hand as they walk through town or whatever. My dad has always smoked from a young age but when he was that young they never really thought about the health risks as much or know as much about it so he's just never given up. My aunt was very addicted and gave up for 3 weeks but as soon as she had just one cigarette she chainsmoked for the entire day :/ |
yorkejodie Shoot Me, I'm A Newbie Age: 28 Gender: Female Posts: 9 | I don't smoke. Though yesterday I sent a dude in a corner shop to get me 12.5g of GV. He got it me. I had a panic attack, got anxious, and confessed the whole thing to my grandma. She also made me give her an additional fag I had on top of the 12.5g. Damn. |
