Maybe they're trying to kill themselves slowly.
It's an addiction, most often started at a very young age.
Most people are well hooked by the time they realize the risks.
By the time they are old enough to start seeing relatives and friends die of it, they are severely hooked.
Of course anyone can quit at anytime, but that takes discipline and willpower. Most people probably try and justify and rationalize the risks, because they probably know someone who's 90 and still smokes and figure it doesn't always happen.
The addiction knows no racial bounds, no economic bounds, social bounds or intelligence bounds, as I have personally known smokers in every possible social category.
The worst thing is parents who smoke in front of their kids as so many smokers I know have/had parents who smoked.
I'm all for personal freedom and the freedom to make stupid choices if one wants to, but anyone who's a smoker who's a parent or thinking about becoming a parent should absolutely quit. It's reprensible to demonstrate that to your kids.
Because once you start, you can't stop and become mentally and physically addicted to the chemicals & drugs in the cigarettes. Why they start in the 1st place, I've no idea but sure hope the kids of this generation don't start!
Its called "Addiction". Its just like any drug. And its not only availiable, its cheap. If I had the will power to quit, I would. They are nasty, make my clothes stink, stain my teeth, and they are very unhealthy. I kicked drug addiction 12 years ago but I can't seem to quit smoking
It's called ADDICTION.
Smokers who are older and started back before the days of all the warnings, are totally addicted to the nicotine. My attitude is that I can continue to smoke or get fat and go stark raving mad. I figure something is going to kill me one day anyway so it might as well be something I enjoy and keeps me sane.
its and Addiction u cant help it my dad smoked for 29 years and just gave up 3 months ago just like that im very proud of him lol coz i hate tha sh*t its like ur suking on coffin nails lol enny way i need help with my qestion so if u no a lot about guns and ammo pleas answer myn bi all
Why do people drive in a car with out wearing seatbelts.
Why do people drink alchohol knowing it can harm their liver
Why do people commit crimes knoqing they will have to pay the consequences
The bottom line is its their choice and addicted or not they do it while fully knowing the consequences. They are definately not oblivious to it but most likley are in denial that it won happen to them but it very well could. These people would rather regret it later than stop now. Yes i know they are addicted but ultimatley it is their choice they are killing themselfs.
Because they are addicted.....................or they just want to.
Most people who answered that this is an addiction is correct but there is so much more to it then that. Once caught in the addiction people start to believe that they can stop when they want to...but they don't want to yet. Little do they realize how hard it will be. Addicts of all kinds also tend to disregard statistics. There is always the one person who smoked until they were 100 yrs old you know! I have heard all of the "reasons" but the fact is that the drug, nicotine, will not let them stop without a battle.
They are kinda addicted to smoke and their head starts to hurt if they don't smoke... It's like they can't live if they don't smoke... they feel like that... but their are some people who had said BYE to smoking... that was hard... but many people did it... and i found this very helpful site off google.. which helps you to quit smoking..
sad...same reason we over eat..and do other things that harm us i guess
why do people do anything that can kill them..
have uprotected sex, eat alot of beef, eat alot of sweets, caffeine, drink alot of coffee, alcohol, guns, speeding, drugs.
people get cancer without even smoking..
smoking is not the only problem.
