Why do you think some people must smoke cigarettes?

People smoke mainly because nicotine is highly addictive. It creates a temporary feeling of pleasure or peace. Many start because of peer pressure, stress, or habit, then continue because quitting extremely difficult.

Don’t know for sure why other people smoke cigarettes but I can tell my story. I used to smoke it has now been 15 years since I quit smoking, and my reason is really quite silly thinking back on it now it was because of peer pressure wanting to fit in.

Thank you Hillary, you are so welcome my good friend

Thank is a good question, I used to smoke and I have no idea why. It’s just become a habit a very unclean habit.

I’m on month 3 of not smoking cigarettes . No one MUST smoke cigarettes , thats a bit insane to have that mindset . Everyone starts for different reasons . I feel like i became addicted on accident , it was originally a boost after weed , then it became a habit . I’d never recommend it to anyone . Avoid it at all cost . Also , it caused me to now have Multiple sclerosis. So IF you do smoke , quit now while you still have good health .

Addicted to nicotine, but also it’s a stress reliever, and becomes a habit of hand-to-mouth movement. I smoked for many, many years. I stopped back in 2009, but it was definitely hard to quit.

Cigarettes have no nutritional value but they destroy your body. Smoking is a habit that is difficult to stop unless you have the will power. People smoke for many reason, some would have started due peer pressure then find it difficult to stop and some start for fun some it will be coping mechanism which ends up to addiction.

It is their stress reliever for whatever they are dealing with.

I think it is an addiction and peer pressure (wanting to be apart of the crowd)

I think it’s a nervous thing then becomes a habit. I hear it will kill your hunger pain. 🐵

As a ex addict to alcohol, I traded in drinking for cigarettes ( which helps ease the cravings for alcohol )

Because they were young and stupid like I was at 16 years old and they’re addictive! Thank goodness I quit but they have no nutritional value and are only harmful to health.

For us growing up it was advertised everywhere. Kids outside smoking like it was the norm. And it’s addictive.

I don’t smoke cigarettes but it’s been so advertised and normalized people try it out of curiosity. And get addicted to the nicotine. It temporarily calms people’s nerves.
