"smoking Is Dangerous To Your Health", Yet The Habit Gains! by kaynoJah(m): 10:52pm On Sep 23, 2006 |
Please! Please!! Please!!! Is cigarrette some kind of drugs? Why is it easy to get into but difficult to quit despite the unending crusade against the habit? Even when it is apparent one is dying due to complications associated with it! Guys, say something about this. |

most people can't quit smoking bcuz it's addictive. it has nicotine. Nicotine is a psychoactive drug with stimulant effects on the electrical activity of the brain. It also has calming effects, especially at times of stress, as well as effects on hormonal and other systems throughout the body. Although its subjective effects are less dramatic and obvious than those of some other addictive drugs, smoking doses of nicotine causes activation of "pleasure centers" in the brain which may explain the pleasure, and addictiveness of smoking. As with other addictions, it is difficult to give up smoking, and without help most smokers fail despite trying many times. Even after stopping successfully for a while, most relapse within 2 to 3 months. More alarming perhaps than the strength of the addiction is the ease with which it develops. |
