Have begun smoking. Cigarettes, not vapes. It might partly be SH, since I obviously know that they are injurious to my health. Everything feels a lot clearer when the nicotine hits. It's a strange feeling to describe. I don't know if my head is clearer, but it definitely feels lighter, if that makes any sense (it doesn't). At times I feel more concentrated, which I know is a property of the nicotine. Can't tell if it helps with the anxiety.
Anyone else smoke? If so, how many cigarettes do you go through a day?
I smoked on and off for a number of years but never a pack a day. I enjoy cigars but I do them at most maybe a couple times a month. I used to enjoy hookah.
When I hung out with my crush he smoked a cigarette and I asked if I could try it but he said no
he offered me his beer though multiple times
Its extremely unattractive when people smoke, especially woman. Smoking can be a phallic symbol when woman smoke. Freud would tell you that sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. George Carlin would counter that by saying, sometimes a cigar is a dick with a guy sucking on the end of it

I have the Rolls-Royce of hookahs at home (nice decorative exotic piece, my friend from Iran, her family has one, too, cultural decoration in their house), and used to do it a lot and I've also bought traditional Shisha from the Middle East. It's completely different than the fruity stuff in the states and Europe and Asia. A lot of the lounges in my area are trashy, but there are a couple good, authentic ones. My friend from Saudi Arabia owns one. The first time I had hookah was in the Middle East, and it was very relaxing.
Hookah is nice at a cafe or a bar or something but it's a lot of work at home.
I only smoke cigars in limited moderation. I'm a bitch and worry about my health. I definitely enjoy cigars and have five full humidors of different varieties. A friend of mine owns a cigar lounge in Vegas, and another friend of mine works at one where I live. Another friend owns a cigar warehouse in Canada so he gets Cubans.
The blends, the construction, the history, the connections, the lounges are interesting you meet interesting people
No more cigarettes. I tried all the brands from across the world. I did roll your own, too. I have a pack of the Chinese ones with the Imperial palace on them (Chunghwa) which the business class and political elite smoke but its decorative. Japanese and Korean brands are good.
Couldn't get into pipes. But Christmas Cookie and cherry are nice flavors.
European snuss is nice but the American brands have HFCS because Americans are obsessed with putting that in everything. Hate dip, hate chew, hate snuff, hate the gum.
