We Know It Kills, But We Still Get It Into Our Body, Why?

Well smoking for some is a casual thing, they smoke when out  with friends or like some people i know they smoke when they drink, they say they are not addicted to it, i still don't know why some do this with the obvious risks. For others it becomes an addiction and you know with addictions, its a mind and physiological thing(cravings). I think for many there are so many different reasons, some people strangely enough feel more confident with a fag in hand in social situations. Some people like the taste. Some people smoke roll ups and like the whole ritual of preparing the tobacco from getting it out of their little tins, spreading it out, rolling it up, licking it to seal and then lighting up.( so said a friend from work)

It varies, its interesting topic , without going too much into the physiological aspect of smoking, some people are just plain addictive in nature and if its not smoking it will be something else.  So asking why? can prove challenging, i suppose if the smokers on the forum can answer then we'll be half way to knowing.

Your doctor friend's reply is interesting though, i think he had resigned himself to the fact that he is addicted and either way he'll die one day, either from the ciggies or something else.

u smoke, u re liable to die young,  UR CHOICE,  no one else,

and when u die, na ur problem be that,
