@@budgetking2591 Been smoking pot since Christ was a cowboy; never a regret, can't say the same about cigarettes. At least when I smoke a joint there is something to appreciate ! :)
My father took his last breathe last week at 74. He smoked since he was 14 years old and he always thought smoking was good for him. Growing up in the 60s and 70s, the science documenting damage was just uncovering, but because he was so addicted it just did not phase him. He walked everywhere and was very active in his life. This active lifestyle mitigated the effects from smoking, but there was still internal damage. He passed away in hospital with severe COPD and struggling for breathe. As a family it was heartbreaking to lose him this way. Smoking robbed him of his teeth so he could not enjoy food, money, his lungs so he could not be as active as he always was, and it also taken away the chance for him to meet his granddaughter (due in 3 months). If you smoke, please consider quitting.
my dad was 73 when he had a stroke and heart attack in one ago 30 years ago becuase of the smoking - i presume he had been smoking a long time since he was a youngish lad and my mum was diagnosed with copd - i and my sister have been smoking for 40 years an i chose with the help of allen carr to escape the slavery of these evil cancer sticks..........so been trying to help others since - mind you its only been day 5 today - but he has completely changed my thought pattern which is what i needed as i had tried nearly everything else which didnt work becuase its all in the mind and that little nicotine demon just doesnt give up!!!.........
@@elizabethferrari1346 i quit nearly 2 months ago, its actually very easy.........there is a book which i highly recommend.....after being a smoker for 40 years and trying different things to quit.........this book has so helped, a guy by the name of alan carr (no, not the comedian)......when you start to realise the whole phycology around smoking - you never want to pick another one up..........
my mother died from lung cancer at age 64. Same struggles as your dad with copd and rotted teeth. I agree that everyone who smokes needs to consider quitting.
Out of all the people I've met, as a percentage, I'm quite sure more have quit heroin than tobacco. I hope to quit smoking soon, it's not even a pleasure anymore, more like a nervous tic.
Did anybody else notice during the Philip Morris guys deposition that he took his glasses off to emphasize his point that he would be shocked if 15 year olds were using his product. That was definitely an act. This guy's a pro for sure
Lol doctors used to prescribed cigarettes and legal age restrictions came after prescription of cigarettes stopped. Before that, everyone could buy cigarettes. Kids included. Such hypocrisy
I will hereby incite the stabbing of John Gledhill and ALL senior staff, CEOs and shareholders at Big Tobacco, in other words in this era of shadow banning, I will call it B*g T*ba**o. (I also shadow ban the ritually slaughtered meat, so h**al meat.). I urge UK shoppers and consumers to defund both tobacco and halal meat although halal meat does you no bodily harm. I mean 'defund' in that UK shoppers and UK consumers should spend less of their time and money with these fascist corporations.
I was smoker for 25 years... I stopped 3 months ago after being hospitalized for 2 weeks. Best thing ever! I am happy that it was effortless. No cravings, no withdrawal.
Sorry to bother you after that many years, but i wanted to ask - if i smoke tobacco and roll it myself, is it less harmful than bought/chemical tobacco brands?
@Ivan Clements Man you got it it is only hard to quit if you lay around and do nothing. I suggest keeping busie. work alot try and not eat so much or drink coffee cuz that is alot of the times you want to smoke alot. keep fluids alot so you can drink something like juice watter or soda and work or keep bussie. its only hard for the first few days mainly day 1 and 2 after that its just mental man. you have this i know you can do it. go for it even with failure it is ok. it is better to try and fail then to never try and succeed at all.
@Ivan Clements DUDE WAY TO GO!. You are over the hard part. You will have more energy and be able to breath better fell better. when you are active you will fell better. It is soo amazing !. DUDE this is amazing. Way to go!. You did the hard part.its all easy from here man!
Not ever taking the side of big tobacco. Both my parents smoked. It destroyed their lungs & heart. But neither one got any kind of cancer. I do not smoke. And never ever will. In 1967 doctors didn't tell expectant mothers not to smoke. Mom smoked pall mall gold. I was born 3 pounds 7 ounces two weeks pre mature. I was as close as you can come to still born. Medicine of 1967 saved my life. I was in intensive care in an incubator near 4 months on oxygen having fluids pumped into me to keep me alive. Doctors gave me a 30% chance to live. Our doctor asked my father if they could afford the cost of an infant burial. Moms? Still want to smoke.
Philip, I am so terribly sorry to hear that. My father was born in 1967 too ... I'm so glad my parents don't smoke. Unfortunately, my fucking idiot brain has smoked a few times , but I am quitting this now.
I am 27 and stupidly smoked for 8 years, but I quit 5 months ago. I wanted to keep my smoking era under the one decade mark. I hope to continue abstaining from smoking forever.
@@brendanjobe6895 you can smoke for 48 years, lose all of your teeth over the years, contract COPD / emphysema , waste tens of thousands of dollars, become considerably weaker & miss out on a lot of activities as well. I’m living proof of that. That’s what it took for me to finally quit.
Tobacco has killed or disabled hundreds of millions of people and will continue to do so. I smoked for 42 years and tried to quit for 35 years with no success. One day while sitting at home I smoked my last cigarette and told myself "now would be a good time to quit." Right then I received the faith of a mustard seed and I bowed my head in prayer and asked Jesus to take away my addiction. He did immediately and I knew it. I had zero withdrawals and quit alcohol at the same time. It was a miracle from Heaven above. That was on Aug. 5, 2010.
Oh my god. Thank you for sharing your story sir. Here's the thing with me ... I was repulsed about cigarettes most of my life. My whole family was anti cigarettes apart from my grandad , who still smokes , he's 75... But my dad is repulsed by it , and he's never ever tried it. And all my life he's told me to keep away. It wasn't until I was 22 , I was on holiday , and somehow I just found myself smoking because all the European people I met , all smoked... Now I smoke one cigarette every 3 days and I need to quit immediately. I can't let this turn into a fully blown addiction
@@GiveRiggyARaise69 I had tried to quit many times on my own and with Chantix, stop smoking clinic and other things including hypnosis. Nothing worked. One day (Aug. 5, 2010) I smoked the last one I had and told myelf "now would be a good time to quit". Right then I received the faith of a mustard seed that's in the Bible and I bowed my head and asked Jesus to take away my addiction. He did and I knew that He did. I told my wife when she got home from work and she just blew it off. Days went by and she knew I wasn't smoking anymore so she knew this time was for real. I will pray for you Pillow.
When will a similar documentary be done about alcohol? When will the alcohol be held accountable for the damage done to families, marriages, counties, cities, towns, individuals? When will folks be "giving up alcohol at an alarming rate?" Oh wait, they put "Drink Responsibly" on all their advertising. Surely that will solve the problem.
Well, in the US prohibition on alcohol was tried and it caused crime rates to swore, created a huge black market, and was rather an expensive cluster fuck... kind of like the last 50 years war on "drugs". What focus needs to be on is education and rehabilitation. Restrictions on advertising, and only fact based data should be available and methods of rehab.
How about our courts do what they are supposed to do and convict Government's, shareholder's, producer's and supplier's with manslaughter every time they kill someone.
All things in moderation. We have to limit ourselves with these things. If you overdo anything, it will harm your life. Teaching people moderation is how the problems get solved. You die from excess, not moderation. I've been drinking and smoking daily for 40 years, but I'm perfectly healthy and the weight I should be (as is my 77 y/o mother and 57 y/o brother who do the same). Only been mildly drunk a handful of times, by accident. You have a drink, not 10 (I mix half white wine/half sprite or whatever's handy because it lasts longer so I don't recommend shots). You don't smoke more than a pack in a day. You have the cupcake, not 10. If you made a plate out of your two hands side by side, your meal should never be larger than that. Your snack should fit in one hand, not bigger. One soda a day, lemonade or water the rest til after dinner when a drink is appropriate. You don't drive if you've had more than one (regular, not a long island ice tea or something). If you've been sitting around for two days, the next two need some exercise in them. It's not that difficult to control yourself. Choose to be happy and have some balance in your life. They shouldn't have to say "Drink Responsibly" because you simply should already know that and do it. The only thing I've ever denied myself is self-destruction. Words to live by.
I was afraid to stop smoking as it was highly addictive and 40 cigarettes a day since my early twenties made my dependence complete. If I’d of known how easy it was to eventually go with out them I’d of tried earlier. But all these health scares only made me more determined to carry on for the next 40 years. Then it was banned from almost everywhere and my son wouldn’t let me smoke in the car, or house so standing outside my house in the middle of winter for a cigarette was my only choice. I successfully gave it up with the patches and gum about 10 years ago. None of the warnings worked it was the pressure from our three children that made me try.
Fantastic. It sure got more tense to smoke than the relaxation we got from them. I quit, too. It just got annoying and irritating, expensive and they burn faster than they used to. Way-to-go!
I'm glad I've never been able to smoke heavily. The worst was 10 a day and my body chastised me heavily for it and I'd cut right back or stop for a day. But I can state with great Joy that Jesus took it from me completely almost a year ago now. I don't ever want to touch tobacco ever again. I am thoroughly disgusted by it
"potentially" lethal. Big time difference. While you were Typing your Bullshit Comment; you should have added "Water, yes, Water, is a lethal Beverage.", just for fun. Good grief.
Cigarettes are the bigger killer as they directly pollute the environment around where their being used, as in passive smoking, but alcohol directly affects the drinker themselves, but can have an indirect effect on others- an alcoholic getting drunk and committing acts of domestic violence, such as wife beating
Just like sugar .....which probably kills more people (in the U.S.) . Nothing wrong with "the drugs" you mentioned.... just like all other things they have to be enjoyed wisely with measured amounts. Should we take away all that and make perfect zombies out of people ? Ten cups of coffee a day or being a workahollic will certainly give all kinds of health problems also .
Since you put it out there, were your successful and 10 months clean? Wish you well, sincerely. We are told it's so difficult and to buy this and that, billions a year to quit; but if you want it, you'll be a nonsmoker. Forget everything anyone tells you. It's a change in behavior and trust me it takes longer than 72 hours to get that nicotine out of you and the brain to heal and produce higher levels of serotonin, but it's doable and you can if you want. Let me know if you did quit and didn't give up. Just curious. p.s. I think quit-smoking-aides are very profitable as well as the cigs; the tobacco companies win, win, win at our expense.
@Cory Allen Thank you for your kind words an prayers xxx , I'm actually in Australia but im looking at getting a smoke inhaler but much rather do it alone if i can
I stopped 3months ago smoked for 43 years started at 10 yrs old i am 53 now. Used ZEROSMOKE A MAGNET PLACED ON THE EAR WORKS LIKE ACUPRESSURE not to be confused as acupuncture. GOOD LUCK GOD's speed.
This is a great documentary!!! My neurosurgeon died of lung cancer. He never smoked a day in his life, but his wife did. I started smoking in the 60's. I just quit. I have lung disease, I have COPD. My uncle died from COPD. Both my mother and grandmother died from lung cancer. Phillip Morris use to tell me that I have come a long way baby. They targeted me as a consumer while I was still a child. They hid the facts of the dangers and led me to believe that if I smoked their poison, I too could be like the wonderful women in their adds and go great places. My children grew up with ear infections and respiratory issues, because their mother was a smoker. My son is 36 now and he too is an addicted smoker because of the poor and uninformed example that I set for him. Where and when will it all end? I sure have come a very long way baby!!
Unfortunately I've been new member of the smoking community. I've been smoking for officially a month now. Its became a big part of my life. My friends smoked around me and it rubbed off on me and since I turned 21 I decided to buy my first pack, and one pack turned into multiple packs. Now I feel the urge to smoke a cigarette when I go on walks, when I listen to music I want to smoke, before and after a meal I have a cigarette, when I meet up with some friends we all have a cigarette and talk. It becomes a part of your daily life. As someone with mental health issues like PTSD its helped calm me down and gave me something to look forward to. I do eventually want to quite, but it's hard! Because its became a big part of my daily routine. Edit: I've got to admit this was probably the realist cigarette documentary I've seen.
Dude, a month... Don't spent so much time writing and thinking about _"...being part of the smokers community..."._ You can easily quit without any long term health effects. It doesn't need much at your stage. Also they're banning smoking everywhere. Where's the fun staying in front of the bar/restaurant for a puff? Really, just quit.
@@The44One Thats Turbo Tobacco, its around 4X stronger and Believe me when you chew for a months or years then Quit. It feels very painful and awesome at the same time. Then you feel much better and rationalize you can handle it Now, and quit whenever you want.
there is really no reason to enjoy living on this earth if you don't enjoy life, cigarettes makes me enjoy life and different tastes, different sorts, smells. most people think "it's just an addiction, quit now" but i don't really have a valid reason to quit because i wan't to be addicted and always will be.
I have always known that smoking is harmful. Also, I have been smoking for roughly 10 years. It has never stopped me from it. Barely ever thought about quitting. I just liked doing it. Being reminded how I have been supportinh these shameless companies though.. Owners of those companies have been given me the middle finger on the daily. It makes me want to not light one up tomorrow morning. Or anytime anymore. My middle finger to them is giving it up. How ironic that it's my strongest motivation. Wish me luck.
I don’t smoke because it’s cool. I smoke because it’s highly addictive. Smoking kills. Killed my mum in April, and it will probably kill me as well. It’s a choice and life is a game of choices. We all have to die from some thing. Be it fast food. Over indulgence in the drink. Every day is one day closer to death. It’s what we do in those days in between that matter. Make the best of those days.
Damn right, it's about freedom of personal choice. I assume the risk of smoking, and i enjoy my habit. People die all the time, you could eat yourself to death, doesn't mean they outlaw burger & chicken production or stop putting steroids in it.
It is a wonderful experience for those who enjoy it, an aquired taste like wine, or beer. however just like alcohol, habitual use to the excess will undoubtedly be harmful to your health. Its up to the individual to assume this risk
Months ago, my wife angrily shouted at me to stop smoking. I did instantly and never again had a cigarette since then. It was very easy for me to stop because deep inside me I knew smoking was a bad habit, not only for me but also for people around me.
@@vickygraham2444 well it’s great that you feel that way but after what happened to me personally, nobody can ever tell me to quit unless I quit for a fat blunt, everyday. And don’t give me any BS on why I shouldn’t feel that way because you simply don’t know the situation
@@xtremeentertainmenttv9664 just be involved with fellow smokers. It's too smelly disgusting for non smokers who are forced to breathe your second hand smoke. My mother and 2 friends died in their early 60s from smoking. Smoking cost them 30 years of life!
My wife and I own currently own 625 shares of British-American Tobacco, worth just over $20,000. We've bought and sold several tobacco stocks over the years, always at a profit, always collecting robust dividends while owning them. Upside: The incentives for tobacco stock is strong; it's an addictive product that cannot be easily quit; governments ( particularly developing countries ) collect huge taxes on tobacco sales, and therefore are unlikely to outlaw tobacco products; and the private sector bears most of the burden resulting from the plethora of illnesses due to smoking - while those who smoke die younger, significantly lowering the government social service burden of aging citizens. It's a vicious binary cycle of profit & death, one revolving around & sustaining the other. BTW I quit smoking 14 years ago. Between the money I've earned on tobacco stocks and having quit smoking myself, I'm up probably at least $30-35,000. Downside: I'm part of the problem. I will profit from the suffering and death of about 8 million people this year. I didn't take a vow of poverty when I stopped smoking, but I'm aware of how I'm passively contributing to humanity's misery. And I would like nothing better than to light a cigarette, even now, 14 years later - cigarettes are THAT addictive.
A very good example of documentary making and good, deep research, combined with a journalists desire to get the story out there. There are pointers here for anyone who wants to tackle other subjects. Use this piece as a guideline.
My mother still smokes and hearing her hack her lungs out every morning with that first smoke made me never want to. It may sound bad but she doesn't look well anymore either. I would rather exercise and eat healthy than be on drugs.
Smoked for 16 years and quit for a year and then started again (yeah I know). Couple weeks ago after a party with a lot of cigarettes the next day I said to myself that I need to quit this sh.t but my brain wanted cigarette badly. Went quickly on YT to learn anything about vaping as this was almost unknown for me (tried some first e cig 10 years ago and it was so bad). I bought ecigarette on the same day and it really works for me. 0 cigarettes since that day. I stop thinking about smoking after 2-3 days. Its not "healthy" but so much less harmful and it keeps you away from cigarettes and I feel much better. If you want to quit and you have tried everything except vaping maybe give it a try. But if you are not a smoker please dont try it, and dont use it for drugs.
Day 2 for me i keep a cigarette on my lips or on my ear, just for strengthen my mind, cause when i don’t have smokes i tend to think about smoking so far i haven’t sparked it up, but smoking weed has been an big part, after smoking a joint i feel the need to smoke a cigarette as well but then i get to high and i forget about a smoke lol im struggling here is this way just suffering myself or strengthen myself
Been smoking most of my life. I desperately need spinal surgery but the surgeon won't touch me until I quit smoking for three months before and two months after surgery. I can't do it. I want to quit but can't. I'm so jealous watching that guy at the beginning walking up those stairs. I certainly can't walk up stairs now. Wish I never started.
Obviously you dont live in Australia, if we get caught growing tobacco, we will get more gaol time than given for growers of marijuana. Hows is that logical?
Saw a vid saying coffee cuts off receptors in your brain and allows dopamine to flow freely... causing you to be happy and ignore all the shit that's going on around you ( this is why coffee is being pushed ). Smoking cancels the effect.
I started back in '92 age 12. Liked to smoke, didn't want to quit, but the New Zealand government kept piling on the tax, to the point a pack of 30 gram roll-your-own tobacco was $50. In January 2018 I moved to vaping, and had amazing success. No craving, no more smoking. If you really want to quit, I recommend vaping.....many people have quit successfully by this method. Because the patches sure didn't work for me!.
Couples of things I wished someone told me when I was a smoker: 1) Understand the habit of smoking. Read on the subject as much as you can. 2) Understand psychology. How is your brain tricking you to do that. Because, let's face it, nobody wants to smoke. It smells bad, feels bad, is expensive, and it's killing you. Read as much as you can on the subject. 3) Associate the habit with negatives thoughts. You really got to think about how bad it really is. 4) Just do it. Fail. Learn. Rise. Fall. Learn. Go better at it. Keeping failling. Love to try. Don't give up. Fail. Rise. Fail again. Rise again. That's it. One day it will be part of your past. Like an old friend.
My nan quit smoking after decades, just about 5 years ago. January this year she was diagnosed with lung cancer. She went through chemo, radiation, immunotherapy and 2 weeks ago was told the cancer had spread and there was nothing more they could do for her. Today I may be saying my last good bye to her. Everyone in my life smokes, yet I have never decided to take up that habit. I spoke marijuana which may or may not be just as bad for lungs long term, but seeing my nan decline so rapidly, I will never EVER smoke cigarettes.
That’s my query. My grandpa is 92 and he always said everyone he knows that quit is dead. It very well may be a catch 22. Like when you get patched into the cia. You die without the patch. After a certain amount of time smoking your all in. Maybe quitting aint the right choice
Aside from my health, the main reason i''m quitting (had my last one before watching this) is that i do not want any longer to help line tobacco CEO's pockets with billions of $ while their product kills people and they sit back and laugh about it. Quitting is a form of protest, sorta, like giving the middle finger to the establishment...lets all do it!
I remember that brand, Basic. I thought at the time, "What a dumb idea, naming a cigarette after a computer programming language" so I guess I was not in the target demographic.
I read an article a few years ago where a scientist in Spain said her research showed that it is not nicotine that causes your lungs to go black and sick, but sugar is the colprit. Also sugar affects other organs negatively. Also, she states that smoking, IS NOT the cause of cancer, but if you have it, it will make it worse.
I was a 45+ a day smoker and had tried everything that you can get at a chemist. I tried 5 times to stop and found that when I started again I found I smoked more.... Then I went into a vape shop, fortunately for me it was a professional store with people who knew what to do. That was seven years ago and I haven't touched a cigarette since. It made a massive difference to my health. Sadly the government's of many countries that are in the pockets of the tobacco industry.... That's all of them by the way, are desperately trying to tax the hell out of vaping products or make them illegal. They don't get any tax from vape devices so its days are numbered. Unless we ALL stand up against this and stop allowing the government to steamroller over us the industry is doomed and so are the people who want to get of the cancer sticks. I think they often forget that they work for US ! We pay their wages so who the hell are they to tell us how to run our lives ? Never mind police state its starting to become police world !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope these scum bags are dragged out of their luxury homes and meet a terrifying ending. My dad smokes, I started smoking at age 10. I have quit now, my dad has not. This was so raw and heartbreaking. It is a cold rigid truth that makes you feel things you typically do not.
I smoked for 13 years and I still remember smelling other chemicals when I inhaled . That concerned me and I wanted to quit . My husband also smoked at that time too. So my husband and I quit on the same day . Unfortunately he died years later from COPD because he had been smoking for 37 years prior to us quitting . I have been okay so far ,but hope and pray as the years go by I won’t suffer from my mistake of smoking . Changing my routine I had when I smoked ,helped me when I finally quit smoking and the support from my husband and friends was beneficial. Now I find smelling smoke from cigarettes repulsive.
both my parents smoked i stole their cigarettes when i was 5 and started smoking then. i did the same with their alcohol at 10. i am 65 years old now i was a chains smoker from the age of 12. i have had terrible addiction and health problems all my life. i had a spontaneous pneumothorax ( one of 2 ) about 25 years ago and nearly died each time. while i was in hospital i was given a chest drain and with the drain in i went into the toilets to have a cigarette. When i inhaled i saw the smoke coming out of the hole the doctor had cut into my chest to insert the drain and the smoke came out the cut in the chest and into the tube that was attached to me. It would be nearly another 20 years before i stopped smoking after becoming a Christian and i believe God helped me to quit because I was so far gone that no human or earthly power could help me. My wife is an a and e nurse and i always see dying patients outside her hospital smoking. My own doctor told me there were certain benefits to smoking. they are all mad. i sometimes used the images of soldiers smoking in the trenches or in combat to support my own habit. it is straight up evil and from the devil
@Mr Cabot No you are right the Devil controls the tobacco industry but the only living God has all the power to save and help those who repent from smoking and want to give up. Well that is my experience and I can only go by what my eyes and ears and senses have confirmed to me. If you are telling me otherwise then i suspect you dont know God or perhaps work for the opposition
@Mr Cabot You cannot speak for my personal experiences .I know what I know that is what i meant by this has been my experience. I am free from addictions that I had for over 50 years I know that in my own strength I could not have achieved it because I tried and failed for years and had given up trying when God stepped in and did it for me. You comments about men being sodomites, fraudsters, tax evasion, pedophilia etc yes all these human characteristics are found in all religions just as they are in secular man fortunately I do not worship a man made religion I worship God. Jesus Himself had the strongest condemnation of the religious leaders of the time. You mention "we would love to meet the Man and We know your God." Who is this we? Perhaps you have never read the bible apart from a cursory glance at a Gideon bible stuffed in a hotel room side table. However even those are now disappearing in much the same way that Christ is. Its all prophesied in the bible as a believer in Christ as my saviour i know what to expect. The final outcome is already pre destined and all that is left to determine is how many people the devil takes down with him. I dont know if you are a smoker or not but the most recent estimate is that tobacco is on course for having killed 1 billion people and if you dont think that is strategy straight from the devil and hell then i dont know what is. That is more than all the wars and famines in history.
2months,damn i quit once for 2 days just wanted to see how long i could last,,then i went on a fishing trip and juts had to have one ,then two and so on but for those couple of days i was breathing good, smelling and tasting good,it was amazing,,but yes it is very hard for some ppl to stay away and get off the withdrawal pains as they last so long,while others are able to get over it after a week or a few days ,this is hard to see ,my cousin quit for several months then went back so its like there is no hope if the pain and urge is gonna last that long ,some ppl juts give up but you need to keep trying and it gets better hopefully
@@ARCSTREAMS it never gets better. I quit for 25 years and a day didn't go by I didn't think about smoking. Started again about a year ago but will stop again and will always long for them.
@@adamv4951 thats crazy, 25 years and you still urge it, but im sure the pain was much worst when you quit the first few weeks than the urg you still have now, i know a family member who quit long ago and not had any problems,another guy i knew at work who was a chain smoker also quit and several years later i saw him and could not recognise him,he ballooned like a puffer fish because he was eating so much after he quit,,everyone is different
Pipes don't have the cancer link anything like as strongly, as there are no additives and the tobacco doesn't touch your lips - not inhaling helps a lot too. Definitely a better smoking method and smells nice too.
Yeah, and they ain't making much money. The pipe tobacco industry is in trouble, feds might ban all flavored tobacco, that's deadly for pipe tobacco industry
I did an investigation myself and asked 100 doctors if smoking was bad. 1 doctor said its perfectly safe to smoke. I wonder how 99 of them got such a bad education
That's because we're brainwashed to think so. Also, billions are made on the quitting aides. You can if you want, you can cut down and go off successfully if you want. I hope you did it.
I wonder how much of the bad health effects of cigarettes is due to the other chemicals besides tobacco chemicals. Would it be as bad if the tobacco companies focused on organic tobacco, and no additives. After all, didn't native americans consider tobacco a healthy thing, as well as a sacrament?
Brad Campbell we are all being killed daily....water,food,air you breathe, clothes you where, every technological device you use or others used around you, chemicals you clean your body with.. we are living to die and being their slaves to accomplish this agenda. . Have no fear..... Jesus Christ is the only way to truth,love ,and eternity through worshipping Him as your Lord and Savior
Maybe some people have weak lungs..I feel great and I've smoked and continue to do so for rent years.. And why the hell does the big bad Government give a sh%t about American people? ??? They have generated billions off of all the health problems and the death caused? The hospitals and pharmaceutical companies are just as guilty. . WAKE UP SHEEPLE. ....... The government doesn't care about you.... they create, cure,and kill... now vape.....it's safe... why are people not worried about the death your phone,Xbox, ps4, laptop, desktop, ipod, smart tv, smart watch, smart car, smart shop all those plus millions more cause more radioactive cancer causing cells than fifty years of smoking. ...so I'm sure most will die from cancer tech in ten to fifteen years LOL JUST LIVE ......WAKE UP. .?....SICK OF STUPID LABELED SHEEPLE
@@ForHonorUSMC I remember when I worked at a gym there was one guy that took a smoke break in the middle of his workout back in the '80's, and he seemed quite healthy.
Now that we kicked tabacco in the nutts, lets do the same for : Coffe, Plastics, Cell Phones, Sugar, GMO´s, Geoengeneering, LED lights... ...Goverments ... So, when and how do we suppose to apply that "my body my choice" thing? Not saying smoking is good but please lets be honest people. My father never beat the living crapp out of my mother over cigarettes... just sayin...
You haven't kicked anything in the nutts, we are still smoking whenever we feel like it.Don't panic, but the World Health Organization has declared that processed meats - which includes bacon, ham and salami - cause cancer.
I really loved smoking, was very good at it, I smoked from 14 to 34, Iam now nearly 44 and I still get the cravings from time to time, I’ve basically learned to live without them, I used nicotine patches and saw the smoking nurse at my doctors every week to initially stop, After this I also had an e-cig for when I went for a drink at the pub, I’ve now stopped using this.
I am a smoker. No one ever told me they were not addictive. I am responsible for what happens. All the evidence is available. So it works its way into DNA or RNA and is impossible to resist idk. What I do know is that if I want to stop I can. That don't make it easy. Not impossible. If I'm too weak to do so there is so much assistance is not funny. If that don't work I didn't want to and I put my vice over my life. What smoker do you think isn't aware of this? Is there a smoker out there who is unaware and oblivious? I don't think in the developed world there is even one.
This is a bit dated, for example at 15:28 the "expert" is talking about a nicotine inhaler device, but that's basically a vape. Vapes are the new way they're targeting kids with fun flavors and marketing.
That being said, it is still wise not to promote it. To ensure children can't buy it. And to spread facts that is among the most addictive substance known to humans in all forms not just cigarettes, but all tobacco products from cigars to pipes to chew.
@StopTheNicotinePoisoning Your statement is asinine and childish. Second hand smoke is the biggest lie ever told. Don't want to breathe carcinogenic compounds? Okay just stop breathing then. Grow up, and use your brain for something besides attacking others for their life choices. I don't like cigarettes either, but I don't act like they some how sneaking their way into my life and lungs because someone wants to have a smoke in an alley behind a bar.
5:51 why did these old dudes just Not just come out to the media and say look or 80 freaking years old we've been smoking since we were 12 get over it. People die all the time at different ages. Are we to outlaw the car because people who drive them kill themselves and other people to. Both of my grandfathers lived to be like 85 and 92 they smoked unfiltered camels since they were nine. So what up now they both work till they died. My father was murdered at 50 something by a crackhead who carjacked someone and smashed into his car. And at this rate there's more toxins in food nowadays than cigarettes. you know that guy says there's no intoxication when you smoke cigarettes so it's not like an addictive substance. Anybody remembers when they first started smoking cigarettes and how high they got for the first couple for five packs. So yes when you start smoking cigarettes they do give you a buzz. Maybe not the best buzz but it's there. I used to think it was lack of oxygen because I was smoking a cigarette. But then I got Nicorette the nicotine gum and Swallowed the juice which are not supposed to. And I got the exact same buzz then research and found out what it was from the nicotine.
I have been a smoker and a non smoker. I also know many smokers who have lived well into their 90's as well as non smokers. Smokers have died and so have nonsmoker's. If one does anything in excess it can be hazardous to ones healthy. More people die from health related issues due to bad eating, or drinking, drugging habits than smokers. It amuses me when people make such a big issue about smoking. In the generation of the early nineteenth century to today, more people have died from starvation, wars, and diseases (WW1 and WW2), and drugs, medicines, than from smoking. The other point I wish to make is ...how health fanatics (non smokers) take to the road and run or walk in the morning (peak hour traffic) and early evening, (peak hour traffic), when thousands of vehicles are spewing out carbon monoxide, and they are breathing it in while they run. So do motorists who sit behind cars in traffic with this filthy air penetrating ones car for so many hours a day, sometimes 7 days a week (or less if they choose one day to stay off the road). The carbon monoxide footprint is already rising, because of the "greed of the "global elites", who are reducing most natural forest (that clean the air) worldwide, filling wetland (that clean the water) removing vegetation, (causing bigger floods) so they can build new residences, with few trees or plants being put back. So wherever we go we are breathing in polluted air. Yet smoking it a big issue for some people. Some may not smoke but they may live in a filthy home. Then there are those who live when there is a lot of dust. Dust also penetrates the lungs and can affect the lungs. A great percentage of humanity take medicines for the slightest ailment, instead of taking natural cures. I can go on and on. I was a considerate smoker and did not smoke in front of those who were non smokers. Yet they are sucking in not my smoke but carbon emissions throughout the day. I am nearly 70 and a light smoker (10 or 15 a day), yet I am still fit for my age. My mother was a light smoker too and lived till she was eighty. (Not dying from smoking from heart failure (a heart problem she had from a young girl). My sister died of cancer (tumor in her lung). Yet never smoked a day in her life, nor any of her children or husband. My mother in law also cancer who died recently, being told it was also in her lungs, yet she too, never smoked. I don't go around telling people how to live their lives. Yet I have seen that a high percentage of Americans are obese and have a variety of health problems, including diabetes. I don't go around telling them to go on diet and stop overeating. The world is doing very little about the pollution in the air, the poisoning of our seas with garbage, the depletion of many wild animals, the poisoning of our streams and oceans with humanities garbage etc., The eco system (that was once balanced is becoming unbalanced, contributing to climate change, (with mans added pollution), with new viruses and diseases (that we have never heard of before) existing today and I am sure more will come. This world is in a mess as far as I can see. So do your little crusades, yet look at the full picture and not a small portion of it, for when they do decide to press the nuclear button, and spew out radiation everywhere, or drop their little bio (anthrax or other) and chemical bombs, don't blame the smokers.
I would give you 100 likes if I could I agree wit every word you say..I would ad just one thing- FOLLOW the money ho is profiting out of these scam? The big medical companies. Just cheek in the medical books- a large percentage of medicines,contains NICOTINE .It means that it have a healing capability just like CANNABIS .
Why are you trying to take my vices away from me? I know what smoking does to my body. If I cared I wouldn't have started. Don't ban things due to the weakness of the few. So what if a few people die, how is it possible to care for everyone in the world?

Quit this cancer everyone Food will taste better Exercise will give better result Skin heals within 6 months Digestion improves It’s only since Jan I gave up these cancer sticks but honestly I see changes 35 now but more active in daily life chores not like before
I am addicted. smoked 47 yrs. I am powerless over nicitine addiction and my life is unmanageable by me. been inpossible for me to stop. Will power is useless! I need help! Hope in God is my only hope.
I quit cold turkey as doctor said i had mass in my lungs. Only smoked for 12 years but quit because of the results. Fortunately they said it wasn’t cancer, still stopped smoking though and I’m grateful!
Tax free smokes when your in the military. They give you smoke breaks if you do make you keep working if you don't smoke. At least that's the way it was while I was in. My whole family smoked untill they died or got severe illness due to smoking. Quoting smoking was easier when I quit drinking and kept telling myself how absolutely disgusting it is. I have since helped others quite, switching to the new vape system can be dangerous. For ladies I think it's ever more difficult because of the emotional attachment, so it becomes all the more stressful to quite. Try using cannabis if you have to, it's way better for you if you can get it with more CBD than THC. The CBD actually helps the craving much more than THC. Even roll your own and trade out the tobacco for CBD cannabis by an eighth at a time untill your no longer using the tobacco. Good luck, you will need it since tobacco is easier to get than heroin and just as adictive.
Trust me, tobacco is not "just as addictive" as heroin. Quitting cigarettes, if you were smoking thousands per day and had been doing so for 50 years straight, stopping them cold turkey wouldn't compare to quitting heroin even if you were taking one $10 deal a day and only had been for a couple of weeks. It's like comparing the stimulation from caffeine to that of crack cocaine, comparing the light emitted From a single candle to the emission of light coming from the sun.
Wow! What an excellent documentary, so wonderfully crafted and researched. Its clear that the tobacco media brainwashed all of us. Weird side note: I tried twice to save this to my watch later list and it wouldn’t appear. Positive outcome was I watched it immediately !!
Vaping helped me. Just keep lowering the nicotine dosage from one bottle of juice to the next till you get to your last bottle of vape juice. Wich has none. Saved me a lot of money and I didn't smell like nasty cig smoke. 5 years cig free after 18 years of smoking.
I quit a month ago and this film has strengthened my resolve.
Thank you.

My father took his last breathe last week at 74. He smoked since he was 14 years old and he always thought smoking was good for him. Growing up in the 60s and 70s, the science documenting damage was just uncovering, but because he was so addicted it just did not phase him. He walked everywhere and was very active in his life. This active lifestyle mitigated the effects from smoking, but there was still internal damage. He passed away in hospital with severe COPD and struggling for breathe. As a family it was heartbreaking to lose him this way. Smoking robbed him of his teeth so he could not enjoy food, money, his lungs so he could not be as active as he always was, and it also taken away the chance for him to meet his granddaughter (due in 3 months). If you smoke, please consider quitting.
my dad was 73 when he had a stroke and heart attack in one ago 30 years ago becuase of the smoking - i presume he had been smoking a long time since he was a youngish lad and my mum was diagnosed with copd - i and my sister have been smoking for 40 years an i chose with the help of allen carr to escape the slavery of these evil cancer sticks..........so been trying to help others since - mind you its only been day 5 today - but he has completely changed my thought pattern which is what i needed as i had tried nearly everything else which didnt work becuase its all in the mind and that little nicotine demon just doesnt give up!!!.........
I'm sorry about your father. I smoked 🚬 for 36 years. I quit cold turkey almost a year ago. I'm much happier.

my mother died from lung cancer at age 64. Same struggles as your dad with copd and rotted teeth. I agree that everyone who smokes needs to consider quitting.
but what if i want to smoke and enjoy it and i really do not care about the effects because it is still my body

You have two serious problems to solve lol..
just stop, its super easy. I used to be a smoker, then i somehow just forgot to smoke, havent had a smoke for years now.
Out of all the people I've met, as a percentage, I'm quite sure more have quit heroin than tobacco. I hope to quit smoking soon, it's not even a pleasure anymore, more like a nervous tic.

Did anybody else notice during the Philip Morris guys deposition that he took his glasses off to emphasize his point that he would be shocked if 15 year olds were using his product. That was definitely an act. This guy's a pro for sure

Smoked my first cigarette at 15
Lol doctors used to prescribed cigarettes and legal age restrictions came after prescription of cigarettes stopped. Before that, everyone could buy cigarettes. Kids included. Such hypocrisy

@Ivan Clements Man you got it it is only hard to quit if you lay around and do nothing. I suggest keeping busie. work alot try and not eat so much or drink coffee cuz that is alot of the times you want to smoke alot. keep fluids alot so you can drink something like juice watter or soda and work or keep bussie. its only hard for the first few days mainly day 1 and 2 after that its just mental man. you have this i know you can do it. go for it even with failure it is ok. it is better to try and fail then to never try and succeed at all.
@Ivan Clements No Question. Just do it. an no doubt about it man. Keep strong dude!

Congratulations. :-)
@Ivan Clements how did you get on? Hopefully you stopped and didnt give in to these money grabbing criminals
Not ever taking the side of big tobacco. Both my parents smoked. It destroyed their lungs & heart. But neither one got any kind of cancer. I do not smoke. And never ever will.
In 1967 doctors didn't tell expectant mothers not to smoke. Mom smoked pall mall gold. I was born 3 pounds 7 ounces two weeks pre mature. I was as close as you can come to still born. Medicine of 1967 saved my life. I was in intensive care in an incubator near 4 months on oxygen having fluids pumped into me to keep me alive. Doctors gave me a 30% chance to live. Our doctor asked my father if they could afford the cost of an infant burial. Moms? Still want to smoke.
Philip, I am so terribly sorry to hear that. My father was born in 1967 too ... I'm so glad my parents don't smoke. Unfortunately, my fucking idiot brain has smoked a few times , but I am quitting this now.
So it was the tobacco alone? Your mother had no underlying health conditions and was in overall good health?
I am 27 and stupidly smoked for 8 years, but I quit 5 months ago. I wanted to keep my smoking era under the one decade mark.
I hope to continue abstaining from smoking forever.

@@michaelellringer5600 pls tell me about those mr weak! 🤣
Tobacco has killed or disabled hundreds of millions of people and will continue to do so. I smoked for 42 years and tried to quit for 35 years with no success. One day while sitting at home I smoked my last cigarette and told myself "now would be a good time to quit." Right then I received the faith of a mustard seed and I bowed my head in prayer and asked Jesus to take away my addiction. He did immediately and I knew it. I had zero withdrawals and quit alcohol at the same time. It was a miracle from Heaven above. That was on Aug. 5, 2010.
Oh my god. Thank you for sharing your story sir.
Here's the thing with me ... I was repulsed about cigarettes most of my life. My whole family was anti cigarettes apart from my grandad , who still smokes , he's 75... But my dad is repulsed by it , and he's never ever tried it. And all my life he's told me to keep away. It wasn't until I was 22 , I was on holiday , and somehow I just found myself smoking because all the European people I met , all smoked... Now I smoke one cigarette every 3 days and I need to quit immediately. I can't let this turn into a fully blown addiction

When will a similar documentary be done about alcohol? When will the alcohol be held accountable for the damage done to families, marriages, counties, cities, towns, individuals? When will folks be "giving up alcohol at an alarming rate?" Oh wait, they put "Drink Responsibly" on all their advertising. Surely that will solve the problem.
Because alcohol is actually poison, tobacco isn't. They are purposely poisoning us
Well, in the US prohibition on alcohol was tried and it caused crime rates to swore, created a huge black market, and was rather an expensive cluster fuck... kind of like the last 50 years war on "drugs". What focus needs to be on is education and rehabilitation. Restrictions on advertising, and only fact based data should be available and methods of rehab.
How about our courts do what they are supposed to do and convict Government's, shareholder's, producer's and supplier's with manslaughter every time they kill someone.
All things in moderation. We have to limit ourselves with these things. If you overdo anything, it will harm your life. Teaching people moderation is how the problems get solved. You die from excess, not moderation. I've been drinking and smoking daily for 40 years, but I'm perfectly healthy and the weight I should be (as is my 77 y/o mother and 57 y/o brother who do the same). Only been mildly drunk a handful of times, by accident. You have a drink, not 10 (I mix half white wine/half sprite or whatever's handy because it lasts longer so I don't recommend shots). You don't smoke more than a pack in a day. You have the cupcake, not 10. If you made a plate out of your two hands side by side, your meal should never be larger than that. Your snack should fit in one hand, not bigger. One soda a day, lemonade or water the rest til after dinner when a drink is appropriate. You don't drive if you've had more than one (regular, not a long island ice tea or something). If you've been sitting around for two days, the next two need some exercise in them. It's not that difficult to control yourself. Choose to be happy and have some balance in your life. They shouldn't have to say "Drink Responsibly" because you simply should already know that and do it. The only thing I've ever denied myself is self-destruction. Words to live by.

I was afraid to stop smoking as it was highly addictive and 40 cigarettes a day since my early twenties made my dependence complete.
If I’d of known how easy it was to eventually go with out them I’d of tried earlier. But all these health scares only made me more determined to carry on for the next 40 years.
Then it was banned from almost everywhere and my son wouldn’t let me smoke in the car, or house so standing outside my house in the middle of winter for a cigarette was my only choice.
I successfully gave it up with the patches and gum about 10 years ago. None of the warnings worked it was the pressure from our three children that made me try.
Fantastic. It sure got more tense to smoke than the relaxation we got from them. I quit, too. It just got annoying and irritating, expensive and they burn faster than they used to. Way-to-go!
@Exempt 1 I didn’t start off at 40 a day I was 60yrs when I gave up. I was addicted almost immediately it built up from one a day at age 15.
My moms in her 50s and smokes 50 a day
I'm glad I've never been able to smoke heavily. The worst was 10 a day and my body chastised me heavily for it and I'd cut right back or stop for a day.
But I can state with great Joy that Jesus took it from me completely almost a year ago now. I don't ever want to touch tobacco ever again. I am thoroughly disgusted by it

Cigarettes are the bigger killer as they directly pollute the environment around where their being used, as in passive smoking, but alcohol directly affects the drinker themselves, but can have an indirect effect on others- an alcoholic getting drunk and committing acts of domestic violence, such as wife beating
Just like sugar .....which probably kills more people (in the U.S.) . Nothing wrong with "the drugs" you mentioned.... just like all other things they have to be enjoyed wisely with measured amounts. Should we take away all that and make perfect zombies out of people ? Ten cups of coffee a day or being a workahollic will certainly give all kinds of health problems also .
I quit this morning and feel so much better. It's the best decision I've ever made.....ever!
Since you put it out there, were your successful and 10 months clean? Wish you well, sincerely. We are told it's so difficult and to buy this and that, billions a year to quit; but if you want it, you'll be a nonsmoker. Forget everything anyone tells you. It's a change in behavior and trust me it takes longer than 72 hours to get that nicotine out of you and the brain to heal and produce higher levels of serotonin, but it's doable and you can if you want. Let me know if you did quit and didn't give up. Just curious. p.s. I think quit-smoking-aides are very profitable as well as the cigs; the tobacco companies win, win, win at our expense.

My uncle died from COPD. Both my mother and grandmother died from lung cancer. Phillip Morris use to tell me that I have come a long way baby. They targeted me as a consumer while I was still a child. They hid the facts of the dangers and led me to believe that if I smoked their poison, I too could be like the wonderful women in their adds and go great places. My children grew up with ear infections and respiratory issues, because their mother was a smoker. My son is 36 now and he too is an addicted smoker because of the poor and uninformed example that I set for him. Where and when will it all end? I sure have come a very long way baby!!
Why is it so hard for people to understand the difference between natural tobacco and cigarettes
I had a friend who never smoked, but her parents and husband did. She died from Lung Cancer due to secondhand smoke.
Unfortunately I've been new member of the smoking community. I've been smoking for officially a month now. Its became a big part of my life. My friends smoked around me and it rubbed off on me and since I turned 21 I decided to buy my first pack, and one pack turned into multiple packs. Now I feel the urge to smoke a cigarette when I go on walks, when I listen to music I want to smoke, before and after a meal I have a cigarette, when I meet up with some friends we all have a cigarette and talk. It becomes a part of your daily life. As someone with mental health issues like PTSD its helped calm me down and gave me something to look forward to. I do eventually want to quite, but it's hard! Because its became a big part of my daily routine.
Edit: I've got to admit this was probably the realist cigarette documentary I've seen.
Dude, a month...
Don't spent so much time writing and thinking about _"...being part of the smokers community..."._
You can easily quit without any long term health effects. It doesn't need much at your stage. Also they're banning smoking everywhere. Where's the fun staying in front of the bar/restaurant for a puff? Really, just quit.

there is really no reason to enjoy living on this earth if you don't enjoy life, cigarettes makes me enjoy life and different tastes, different sorts, smells. most people think "it's just an addiction, quit now" but i don't really have a valid reason to quit because i wan't to be addicted and always will be.
I have always known that smoking is harmful. Also, I have been smoking for roughly 10 years. It has never stopped me from it. Barely ever thought about quitting. I just liked doing it. Being reminded how I have been supportinh these shameless companies though.. Owners of those companies have been given me the middle finger on the daily. It makes me want to not light one up tomorrow morning. Or anytime anymore. My middle finger to them is giving it up. How ironic that it's my strongest motivation. Wish me luck.

Never been a smoker, never will be. But I love checking these documentaries/health videos on this habit.
I have quit smoking from 01.01.2020 with the assistance of my will power.
I don’t smoke because it’s cool. I smoke because it’s highly addictive. Smoking kills. Killed my mum in April, and it will probably kill me as well. It’s a choice and life is a game of choices. We all have to die from some thing. Be it fast food. Over indulgence in the drink. Every day is one day closer to death. It’s what we do in those days in between that matter. Make the best of those days.
Nobody, nobody can order me to quit smoking. I`ve done it well over 50 years and i love it.
This is America. You are free to do as you wish. JUST DON'T ASK ME TO BE YOUR CAREGIVER.
Damn right, it's about freedom of personal choice. I assume the risk of smoking, and i enjoy my habit. People die all the time, you could eat yourself to death, doesn't mean they outlaw burger & chicken production or stop putting steroids in it.
It is a wonderful experience for those who enjoy it, an aquired taste like wine, or beer. however just like alcohol, habitual use to the excess will undoubtedly be harmful to your health. Its up to the individual to assume this risk
I just quit yesterday. Never will start again. Tobacco companies are murders.

My wife and I own currently own 625 shares of British-American Tobacco, worth just over $20,000. We've bought and sold several tobacco stocks over the years, always at a profit, always collecting robust dividends while owning them. Upside: The incentives for tobacco stock is strong; it's an addictive product that cannot be easily quit; governments ( particularly developing countries ) collect huge taxes on tobacco sales, and therefore are unlikely to outlaw tobacco products; and the private sector bears most of the burden resulting from the plethora of illnesses due to smoking - while those who smoke die younger, significantly lowering the government social service burden of aging citizens. It's a vicious binary cycle of profit & death, one revolving around & sustaining the other. BTW I quit smoking 14 years ago. Between the money I've earned on tobacco stocks and having quit smoking myself, I'm up probably at least $30-35,000. Downside: I'm part of the problem. I will profit from the suffering and death of about 8 million people this year. I didn't take a vow of poverty when I stopped smoking, but I'm aware of how I'm passively contributing to humanity's misery. And I would like nothing better than to light a cigarette, even now, 14 years later - cigarettes are THAT addictive.

Smoked for 16 years and quit for a year and then started again (yeah I know). Couple weeks ago after a party with a lot of cigarettes the next day I said to myself that I need to quit this sh.t but my brain wanted cigarette badly. Went quickly on YT to learn anything about vaping as this was almost unknown for me (tried some first e cig 10 years ago and it was so bad). I bought ecigarette on the same day and it really works for me. 0 cigarettes since that day. I stop thinking about smoking after 2-3 days. Its not "healthy" but so much less harmful and it keeps you away from cigarettes and I feel much better. If you want to quit and you have tried everything except vaping maybe give it a try. But if you are not a smoker please dont try it, and dont use it for drugs.
Glad I never smoked
Well thats a good thing
Well done
You shouldn't you're a cat
Smoking is good for you it helps with asthma.
Almost 11 years since my last cigarette. I’ve easily saved over $20,000 plus maybe my life. Keeping my fingers crossed as I age.
I think we quit within weeks of each other. 10/29/09 was my last puff.
$20,000?
Try $60,000+
Have you "saved" anything though?
Day 2 for me i keep a cigarette on my lips or on my ear, just for strengthen my mind, cause when i don’t have smokes i tend to think about smoking so far i haven’t sparked it up, but smoking weed has been an big part, after smoking a joint i feel the need to smoke a cigarette as well but then i get to high and i forget about a smoke lol im struggling here is this way just suffering myself or strengthen myself

Anything that raises dopamine is addictive....don't need to be a substance or ingested to be addictive either
Saw a vid saying coffee cuts off receptors in your brain and allows dopamine to flow freely... causing you to be happy and ignore all the shit that's going on around you ( this is why coffee is being pushed ). Smoking cancels the effect.
I started back in '92 age 12. Liked to smoke, didn't want to quit, but the New Zealand government kept piling on the tax, to the point a pack of 30 gram roll-your-own tobacco was $50. In January 2018 I moved to vaping, and had amazing success. No craving, no more smoking. If you really want to quit, I recommend vaping.....many people have quit successfully by this method. Because the patches sure didn't work for me!.
Vaping cheaper than smoking eh? Seems weird when you think about it, a pennies on the dollar plant v.s vaping pens and oils.

I was heavily addicted to chemically fortified cigarettes, unaware of the ingredients
What tobacco isn't heavily fortified chemically?
Couples of things I wished someone told me when I was a smoker:
1) Understand the habit of smoking. Read on the subject as much as you can.
2) Understand psychology. How is your brain tricking you to do that. Because, let's face it, nobody wants to smoke. It smells bad, feels bad, is expensive, and it's killing you. Read as much as you can on the subject.
3) Associate the habit with negatives thoughts. You really got to think about how bad it really is.
4) Just do it. Fail. Learn. Rise. Fall. Learn. Go better at it. Keeping failling. Love to try. Don't give up. Fail. Rise. Fail again. Rise again.
That's it. One day it will be part of your past. Like an old friend.
My nan quit smoking after decades, just about 5 years ago. January this year she was diagnosed with lung cancer. She went through chemo, radiation, immunotherapy and 2 weeks ago was told the cancer had spread and there was nothing more they could do for her. Today I may be saying my last good bye to her. Everyone in my life smokes, yet I have never decided to take up that habit. I spoke marijuana which may or may not be just as bad for lungs long term, but seeing my nan decline so rapidly, I will never EVER smoke cigarettes.
That’s my query. My grandpa is 92 and he always said everyone he knows that quit is dead. It very well may be a catch 22. Like when you get patched into the cia. You die without the patch. After a certain amount of time smoking your all in. Maybe quitting aint the right choice
First drag felt like a horse kicked-in my lungs.
Aside from my health, the main reason i''m quitting (had my last one before watching this) is that i do not want any longer to help line tobacco CEO's pockets with billions of $ while their product kills people and they sit back and laugh about it. Quitting is a form of protest, sorta, like giving the middle finger to the establishment...lets all do it!
I remember that brand, Basic. I thought at the time, "What a dumb idea, naming a cigarette after a computer programming language" so I guess I was not in the target demographic.

Smoking rates gone down, lung cancer rates going up. Lucy, you got som splaining to do
I read an article a few years ago where a scientist in Spain said her research showed that it is not nicotine that causes your lungs to go black and sick, but sugar is the colprit. Also sugar affects other organs negatively.
Also, she states that smoking, IS NOT the cause of cancer, but if you have it, it will make it worse.
I was a 45+ a day smoker and had tried everything that you can get at a chemist. I tried 5 times to stop and found that when I started again I found I smoked more....
Then I went into a vape shop, fortunately for me it was a professional store with people who knew what to do. That was seven years ago and I haven't touched a cigarette since. It made a massive difference to my health.
Sadly the government's of many countries that are in the pockets of the tobacco industry.... That's all of them by the way, are desperately trying to tax the hell out of vaping products or make them illegal. They don't get any tax from vape devices so its days are numbered.
Unless we ALL stand up against this and stop allowing the government to steamroller over us the industry is doomed and so are the people who want to get of the cancer sticks. I think they often forget that they work for US ! We pay their wages so who the hell are they to tell us how to run our lives ?

I smoked for 13 years and I still remember smelling other chemicals when I inhaled . That concerned me and I wanted to quit . My husband also smoked at that time too.
So my husband and I quit on the same day . Unfortunately he died years later from COPD because he had been smoking for 37 years prior to us quitting . I have been okay so far ,but hope and pray as the years go by I won’t suffer from my mistake of smoking .
Changing my routine I had when I smoked ,helped me when I finally quit smoking and the support from my husband and friends was beneficial. Now I find smelling smoke from cigarettes repulsive.
both my parents smoked i stole their cigarettes when i was 5 and started smoking then. i did the same with their alcohol at 10. i am 65 years old now i was a chains smoker from the age of 12. i have had terrible addiction and health problems all my life. i had a spontaneous pneumothorax ( one of 2 ) about 25 years ago and nearly died each time. while i was in hospital i was given a chest drain and with the drain in i went into the toilets to have a cigarette. When i inhaled i saw the smoke coming out of the hole the doctor had cut into my chest to insert the drain and the smoke came out the cut in the chest and into the tube that was attached to me. It would be nearly another 20 years before i stopped smoking after becoming a Christian and i believe God helped me to quit because I was so far gone that no human or earthly power could help me.
My wife is an a and e nurse and i always see dying patients outside her hospital smoking. My own doctor told me there were certain benefits to smoking. they are all mad. i sometimes used the images of soldiers smoking in the trenches or in combat to support my own habit. it is straight up evil and from the devil
@Mr Cabot No you are right the Devil controls the tobacco industry but the only living God has all the power to save and help those who repent from smoking and want to give up. Well that is my experience and I can only go by what my eyes and ears and senses have confirmed to me. If you are telling me otherwise then i suspect you dont know God or perhaps work for the opposition
@Mr Cabot You cannot speak for my personal experiences .I know what I know that is what i meant by this has been my experience. I am free from addictions that I had for over 50 years I know that in my own strength I could not have achieved it because I tried and failed for years and had given up trying when God stepped in and did it for me. You comments about men being sodomites, fraudsters, tax evasion, pedophilia etc yes all these human characteristics are found in all religions just as they are in secular man fortunately I do not worship a man made religion I worship God. Jesus Himself had the strongest condemnation of the religious leaders of the time.
You mention "we would love to meet the Man and We know your God." Who is this we? Perhaps you have never read the bible apart from a cursory glance at a Gideon bible stuffed in a hotel room side table. However even those are now disappearing in much the same way that Christ is. Its all prophesied in the bible as a believer in Christ as my saviour i know what to expect. The final outcome is already pre destined and all that is left to determine is how many people the devil takes down with him. I dont know if you are a smoker or not but the most recent estimate is that tobacco is on course for having killed 1 billion people and if you dont think that is strategy straight from the devil and hell then i dont know what is. That is more than all the wars and famines in history.
ain't even gone lie, i stopped smoking for 2 months...the urge to smoke was so strong that I went back and never quit since.

As a pipe smoker there are more pipe makers and tobacco blenders than in the 1950s.
Pipes don't have the cancer link anything like as strongly, as there are no additives and the tobacco doesn't touch your lips - not inhaling helps a lot too. Definitely a better smoking method and smells nice too.

Really interesting!🍀🌺
I am a smoker. No one ever told me they were not addictive. I am responsible for what happens. All the evidence is available. So it works its way into DNA or RNA and is impossible to resist idk. What I do know is that if I want to stop I can. That don't make it easy. Not impossible. If I'm too weak to do so there is so much assistance is not funny. If that don't work I didn't want to and I put my vice over my life. What smoker do you think isn't aware of this? Is there a smoker out there who is unaware and oblivious? I don't think in the developed world there is even one.

This is a bit dated, for example at 15:28 the "expert" is talking about a nicotine inhaler device, but that's basically a vape. Vapes are the new way they're targeting kids with fun flavors and marketing.

People chose to smoke. Some are affected some not. No one is forcing anyone to smoke. It is a personal choice. End of story.
That being said, it is still wise not to promote it. To ensure children can't buy it.
And to spread facts that is among the most addictive substance known to humans in all forms not just cigarettes, but all tobacco products from cigars to pipes to chew.
But every movie and music star is given free cigarettes to promote smoking amongst children. And it's more addictive than heroin!!!
@StopTheNicotinePoisoning Your statement is asinine and childish. Second hand smoke is the biggest lie ever told. Don't want to breathe carcinogenic compounds? Okay just stop breathing then. Grow up, and use your brain for something besides attacking others for their life choices.

5:51 why did these old dudes just Not just come out to the media and say look or 80 freaking years old we've been smoking since we were 12 get over it. People die all the time at different ages. Are we to outlaw the car because people who drive them kill themselves and other people to. Both of my grandfathers lived to be like 85 and 92 they smoked unfiltered camels since they were nine. So what up now they both work till they died. My father was murdered at 50 something by a crackhead who carjacked someone and smashed into his car. And at this rate there's more toxins in food nowadays than cigarettes. you know that guy says there's no intoxication when you smoke cigarettes so it's not like an addictive substance. Anybody remembers when they first started smoking cigarettes and how high they got for the first couple for five packs. So yes when you start smoking cigarettes they do give you a buzz. Maybe not the best buzz but it's there. I used to think it was lack of oxygen because I was smoking a cigarette. But then I got Nicorette the nicotine gum and Swallowed the juice which are not supposed to. And I got the exact same buzz then research and found out what it was from the nicotine.
I have been a smoker and a non smoker. I also know many smokers who have lived well into their 90's as well as non smokers. Smokers have died and so have nonsmoker's. If one does anything in excess it can be hazardous to ones healthy. More people die from health related issues due to bad eating, or drinking, drugging habits than smokers. It amuses me when people make such a big issue about smoking. In the generation of the early nineteenth century to today, more people have died from starvation, wars, and diseases (WW1 and WW2), and drugs, medicines, than from smoking. The other point I wish to make is ...how health fanatics (non smokers) take to the road and run or walk in the morning (peak hour traffic) and early evening, (peak hour traffic), when thousands of vehicles are spewing out carbon monoxide, and they are breathing it in while they run. So do motorists who sit behind cars in traffic with this filthy air penetrating ones car for so many hours a day, sometimes 7 days a week (or less if they choose one day to stay off the road). The carbon monoxide footprint is already rising, because of the "greed of the "global elites", who are reducing most natural forest (that clean the air) worldwide, filling wetland (that clean the water) removing vegetation, (causing bigger floods) so they can build new residences, with few trees or plants being put back. So wherever we go we are breathing in polluted air. Yet smoking it a big issue for some people. Some may not smoke but they may live in a filthy home. Then there are those who live when there is a lot of dust. Dust also penetrates the lungs and can affect the lungs. A great percentage of humanity take medicines for the slightest ailment, instead of taking natural cures. I can go on and on. I was a considerate smoker and did not smoke in front of those who were non smokers. Yet they are sucking in not my smoke but carbon emissions throughout the day. I am nearly 70 and a light smoker (10 or 15 a day), yet I am still fit for my age. My mother was a light smoker too and lived till she was eighty. (Not dying from smoking from heart failure (a heart problem she had from a young girl). My sister died of cancer (tumor in her lung). Yet never smoked a day in her life, nor any of her children or husband. My mother in law also cancer who died recently, being told it was also in her lungs, yet she too, never smoked. I don't go around telling people how to live their lives. Yet I have seen that a high percentage of Americans are obese and have a variety of health problems, including diabetes. I don't go around telling them to go on diet and stop overeating. The world is doing very little about the pollution in the air, the poisoning of our seas with garbage, the depletion of many wild animals, the poisoning of our streams and oceans with humanities garbage etc., The eco system (that was once balanced is becoming unbalanced, contributing to climate change, (with mans added pollution), with new viruses and diseases (that we have never heard of before) existing today and I am sure more will come. This world is in a mess as far as I can see.
So do your little crusades, yet look at the full picture and not a small portion of it, for when they do decide to press the nuclear button, and spew out radiation everywhere, or drop their little bio (anthrax or other) and chemical bombs, don't blame the smokers.
I would give you 100 likes if I could I agree wit every word you say..I would ad just one thing- FOLLOW the money ho is profiting out of these scam? The big medical companies. Just cheek in the medical books- a large percentage of medicines,contains NICOTINE .It means that it have a healing capability just like CANNABIS .

Tax free smokes when your in the military. They give you smoke breaks if you do make you keep working if you don't smoke. At least that's the way it was while I was in. My whole family smoked untill they died or got severe illness due to smoking. Quoting smoking was easier when I quit drinking and kept telling myself how absolutely disgusting it is. I have since helped others quite, switching to the new vape system can be dangerous. For ladies I think it's ever more difficult because of the emotional attachment, so it becomes all the more stressful to quite. Try using cannabis if you have to, it's way better for you if you can get it with more CBD than THC. The CBD actually helps the craving much more than THC. Even roll your own and trade out the tobacco for CBD cannabis by an eighth at a time untill your no longer using the tobacco. Good luck, you will need it since tobacco is easier to get than heroin and just as adictive.
Trust me, tobacco is not "just as addictive" as heroin. Quitting cigarettes, if you were smoking thousands per day and had been doing so for 50 years straight, stopping them cold turkey wouldn't compare to quitting heroin even if you were taking one $10 deal a day and only had been for a couple of weeks. It's like comparing the stimulation from caffeine to that of crack cocaine, comparing the light emitted From a single candle to the emission of light coming from the sun.
Wow! What an excellent documentary, so wonderfully crafted and researched. Its clear that the tobacco media brainwashed all of us. Weird side note: I tried twice to save this to my watch later list and it wouldn’t appear. Positive outcome was I watched it immediately !!
Vaping helped me. Just keep lowering the nicotine dosage from one bottle of juice to the next till you get to your last bottle of vape juice. Wich has none. Saved me a lot of money and I didn't smell like nasty cig smoke. 5 years cig free after 18 years of smoking.

Yes I did the same . It worked for me as well.
Excellent acting by the elder men in that meeting at 5:49
My bf hates smoking and obviously didn't like that I smoke, and I was like "ah well ok lol". Quitting was easy peasy, I barely smoked anyways
