Cigarette Smoking Pros and Cons
Most smokers know that smoking is bad for your health, but people tend to forget that smoking has some positive sides as well. Lets take a look at the cigarette smoking pros and cons. First the Pros:
* Most cigarette smokers feel they have a strong bonding with other smokers. It is easy to get together and talk while you smoke.
* Smoking gives the smoker a sense of gratification.
* The nicotine in the cigarette gives the smoker a good relaxing feeling. This has proven to be very good against stress.
* Holding the cigarette gives the smoker a feel of comfort and keeps the mind busy.
Now to the Cons and They are a Lot More:
* Smoking leaves a really bad smell in your clothes, car, hair, mouth and in your home.
* Your lunges will slowly get worse and your condition will follow
* Most smokers tend to get an annoying cough during day and night
* The nicotine can make you feel sick or dizzy if you get too much or too little
* You will slowly get a yellow tone on your skin, fingernails and teeth
* You will run out of energy faster and your motivation will go down
* You might loose the sense of smell and taste (partly or totally)
* Your cigarette can start a fire if you fall asleep or forget it somewhere
* You are costing yourself a fortune just to keep smoking every day
* In worse case you might end up with cancer and die from long-term smoking
As you see the cons outnumber the pros and this should be enough to give it up. I feel that today when we are so educated and we know how dangerous it is there is no reason to risk your health. You just have to be mentally strong and say no. I have done it myself and I loved every cigarette but I don’t like to be addicted and not be in control. The cigarette will slowly kill you and it is really easy to stop if you really put your mind to it. Enough with excuses and you have learned the cigarette smoking pros and cons now.
