Cigarette

I have given up smoking recently and am doing well apart from the odd Friday night when I might get through a pack (20) over the course of a night out. People tell me this is worse than smoking consistently throughout the week – 5 a day, plus I would have 20 on a night out too so maybe 50-55 in total? Is this right?

Of course it is not good to smoke at all, I think that’s nothing new to anyone here. By quitting already a little bit you are on a good way.

If you are smoking consistently your lungs and organs can accustom themselves to the daily dose of poison. On the other hand it supports your addictive behavior. When you refrain from smoking on every other day but Fridays you are proving already that you are able to stop smoking.

Try to cut down on Fridays, maybe you get through the odd Friday night with only 15? Don’t take the whole pack, leave five out, throw them away that is. Step by step you might cut it down to zero.

And tell your friends that you are quitting. That will add some social pressure to your good will.

You can do it! I could, too. Good luck!

If people choose a vegan lifestyle, why do some still smoke? When it’s a fact that the cigarette companies test on animals.

I have never met a vegan who smokes cigarettes. Most vegans are very health conscious, and wouldn’t pump poison into themselves. Yes it is a fact that cigarette companies conduct horrible, painful experiments on animals. So for a vegan to smoke, would be very hypocritical.
