I smoke. I recently got my first non Diabetic A1c. Having said that, I would never advocate someone not trying to give up even if they are vaping with nicotine.
Little known fact. The reason we become addicted to nicotine is that the brain naturally produces nicotine in tiny amounts, it's one of the feel good chemicals. Once we get started on the cigs it is just too easy to become addicted.
 

It's a stimulant. A little like coffee in some respects. But more addictive. There's no way it calms you down. One just builds up a tolerance to the detrimental effects of the other chemicals in a cig..
 
Thanks guys, for all your responses.

We've all seen the detrimental effect of any form of addiction. (Whatever form it takes.)
The OP appears to have no further comment on the original topic of cannabis use.

This thread is now closed to further replies.

Kind regards.
