like i said: i know it’s stupid and unhealthy and long term it can cause serious damage. but don’t tell me that two cigarettes a week will kill me. it won’t.
and if it does you win.
I don’t think that two cigarettes a week will give you cancer, but one puff of nicotine increases your heart rate. Two puffs increase it further and elevate your blood pressure, and so on. It may seem like a little amount of smoking, but there are people who stroked out from ONE arthritis pill, that was safely prescribed for so many others. I would not want to find out the hard way that I was the one person who would be seriously adversely affected by only a couple of cigarettes a week.
And if it does, I win????? No, but someone loses, most notably the family and friends who love you. It’s not a contest Moish. I am not telling you what to do. Teenagers are famous for having the sense that they are immortal – or not really caring about the future.
