They do relieve stress though, at a biochemical level. Also they cause harm and you shouldn’t smoke. The harm isn’t worth it and they cause physical dependency, including elevated stress when you don’t smoke that can only be alleviated by smoking, furthering the dependency. Don’t smoke.
But lying about the short term benefits is just like DARE equivocating marijuana and hard drugs: people wind up trying it out anyway, realize they were lied to, and disregard the actual beneficial warnings because the first one was obviously a lie.

Wow that’s curious. I distinctly remember my first time. I held the cigarette in a strange way so that my hand covered my mouth when I hauled, and my roommate made fun of me lol.
It gave me the spins and kind of perked me up when drinking, but that was the extent of anything noticeable.
The immediate like sedating effect I only noticed when I started smoking in the morning.
I remember mine as well, bummed off a friend driving me to pick up my car that had been towed overnight. I distinctly remember being much less upset after the first drag.
Cigarettes do not relieve stress- they only cause harm to the smoker and to those around them. Smoking is bad. Don’t smoke.
Smoking actually isn’t bad for you as long as you’re pure of heart
With all this climate change and nothing being done about it + with the next four years being what they are I just might start.

I’m told by 2 coworkers they relieve stress but the effect Is so temporary you have to constantly smoke. So it’s not worth it.
Correct
Stopping to smoke also causes massive amounts of stress, and some people are better off not stopping until their mental health improves.
needed to be said. thank you
Cigarettes don’t relieve stress.
At least not until you’ve smoked long enough to get addicted.
Have you ever smoked?
Yes. I stopped and started smoking and vaping for the past 20 years.
Cigarettes only relieve stress if you’ve developed the pathways that let the nicotine behave as a dopamine agonist.
If you give someone who’s never smoked a cigarette it’s not going to relax them.
That was not my experience the first time. The effect was immediate.

What? Smokings bad for you? No way. I think they would tell people about it if that was true.
Yeah, they’d probably put some kind of notice on the box or something.
Yes dad
