But having a 28g bag each day as a snack wont do too much damage... Maybe that's not how smoking works, but that's how I think of it. I don't buy smokes myself, but if my friend goes out to smoke sometimes I ask for one, it helps me relax, I never have a desire for another right away though. I smoke maybe 2-4 per month, honestly with those 2-4 smokes or none, I think my life would be the exact same. | ||

The carcinogens in the cigarette will settle in your lung and may cause cell mutation, after the second hit to the dna it may lead to a cancerous growth, so just one cigarette can be enough to give yourself lung cancer. Also basically all those nasty ass throat cancers are highly related to smoking and drinking, so your chances of getting one of those will go up too. And believe me those are some of the nastiest cancers one can get. Don't smoke people, it's a stupid thing to do. If you like the nicotine, get a gum. If you wanna relax, go out and have sex. | ||

My friend went to a doctor asking something similar (he smoke somewhere between 10-15 a day) and was told the risk he was at was minimal. For everybody hating on smoking (which they ought not to be, this isn't the hate-smoker thread), I smoke because I enjoy it. I like the taste, I like the feeling of nicotine and it can help me relax. It also helps me get a break from the computer every hour or so when I'm playing Starcraft. Drinking imo, is worse, and I'm willing to bet that the majority of people in this thread have been drunk/get drunk regularly (I haven't drank in 4 years). It contains calories, it's more addictive, and it turns you into a different person when you take it. | ||

Smoking 10-15 cigars a day is definitely not minimal if you ask me. Your lungs wont be the same. | ||

Also in regards to the OP, I never thought of smoking as casual smoking cause there just isn't many people who do it. Why is this? I don't know I've never smokes, maybe its more addicting, or the fact that is smoking is more socially acceptable to do. For instance on your break at work you can go outside and smoke or situations similar, while it would be frowned upon in those same situations to go out and have a beer or some scotch. Also is could be the convience of it being so easy to carry on you at all times that leads to temptation. TLDR; Just try to not do it. Many people look down towards smoking and many girls won't go out with smokers if they don't smoke and I don't blame them. It's also bad for your health. Overall if your going to do it, of course smoking 1-2 cigarettes a day is better than the average pack a dayer. | ||

Also Things like weed and drinking cant really help that because they have a longer buzz associated with them, for instance you can not drink/get high at work but taking a 10 minute smoke break is not a problem. | ||
