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.
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.
