Everyone I know who drinks or does stim drugs like cocaine end up smoking loads of cigs, Is there a reason for it?
In: Biology
Alcohol is a depressant and nicotine is a stimulant. Helps to balance things out. Also the social aspects of smoking are a huge factor. It’s difficult to have a conversation with someone in a loud, crowded bar or party, but periodically going out to smoke is a convenient way to get to know or spend more quality time with someone in an informal way. Like alcohol, Nicotine is also a very powerful antianxiety drug, though it’s duration is very short meaning you need to continuously keep going back to the well. It’s a big reason why so many people with psychological disorders self medicate with tons of cigarettes.
