Do you smoke?

Do you smoke? I smoke too much these days because I am busy with a project. I often work till midnight,even 2:00AM. when I feel tired, I just have a cigarette to make me feel a little more clear. I do know it's very bad to my health,but I really don't know what I should do when I am working and thinking about some difficult issues in my project. Maybe a cup of coffee is okay, but it's also not good to drink too much water at night. These days, When get up in the moring, I always feel very thirsty with a little pain in my throat. It must be the direct result of too much smoking. Whatever, hope to complete this project as soon as possible,so I can return to the healthy life again.

No, I don't smoke. I'm allergic to it. I tried it once when I was a teen and ended up in the hospital for three days. You see, I have poor lung capacity due to the disability I have had since birth.

You are killing yourself! People should not change the blessedness of half of their lives with hard working. I think you are finding pegs to smoking. You know the harm of smoking to yourself. However, do you know that the harm to your family when you smoke? Your father maybe has a harder cough. Your mother maybe couldn't sleep all the night. Your wife maybe having more furrow. And your child maybe napping in the classroom. Thinking about the persons you love, kick the habit of smoking. Wish you good luck and a healthy life, my friend!

Yes, I do smoke but not that much. I smoke only if I'm stressed and depressed. And yes when I have to use the toilet..LOL. But I don't smoke if my kids are around, cause second hand smoke is really bad. Before I was a chain smoker but I tried to lessen it when I experienced to have a throat infection and that really teaches me a lesson. Now I can say that I only smoke 3 to 4 sticks a day.

I personally don't smoke and I don't like it either. But my husband smokes a lot and there's no way to stop his doing so. That's one of the topic we don't agree with each other. I guess smoking relieve stress for a while and one might get addicted to it. I remember I used to ask a man saying "what do you get when you smoke and pump it out again?". He smiled and issued no comments. Anyway, if you are still young, it's better to quit. If you've already in it too long, try to smoke less. And if a man has smoked up to his 80s and still lives happily, then my advice would be: smoke whenever you like.

I can`t agree more!When I was very young,I stayed with my grandma at daytime,my grandma smoked seriously.Now I still remember the smoke circles pumping out from her mouth.I love her,really,so I helped her to give it up,I have hidden it up in a big box,and put it under the bed......but they were all helpless.So now,I always be away with the smoking fog ,and I become hating smoking. So I advised the person who smokes or gets ready to smoke,if you really love the person who care about you or love you,please try to give it up,or smoke less,not only for your health,but also for others`.

ya, that's true. Chinese girls don't smoke. It seems I have not seen any girl aroud me to smoke. That might be a kind of tradition. Man smokes but girl does not. As far as I know, many girls in USA do smoke. Thanks for your advices, and I am trying many methods to quit it, including eating. but it seems eating too much is turning me fat. that's a kind of contravention thing. have a nice day!

yes, most of the ITers do smoke because of so much pressure and night working days. I am not in the IT, but I also has the similar woking style as ITers. I usually work till midnight when there is an urgent project. Boring, so somoke! But it does has great harm to our health, and I am thinking about some ways to quit it. sitll don't know when this plan starts, but it's in the schedule. Maybe when this project is completed. have a nice day!

i am not a smoker, so i don't know the somking feeling and the function of refresh oneself. when i am under pressure or feel frustrated,i would like to take many methods to relax myself such as appreciating the light music, talk with my best friend or go out for a walk,breath some fresh air. the modern people, especially the man, are working and living under heavy stress which result in many disease serously affecting the healthy life. so the whole society should take common actions to relax the intense atmosphere and give modern persons a relative environment to work and live.
