The truth is that yes nicotine is very addictive but it’s also easy to quit it’s metabolized quickly. Allen points out that all we know of smoking is a lie- it’s not enjoyable in any way, we’ve been brainwashed (a lot easier to appreciate now that we’ve seen the brainwashing of Covid and vaccines and all the other junk) into thinking we like it but it’s only that we are battling the withdrawal symptoms of nicotine that happened within minutes of finishing a cigarette. It’s that nagging feeling of almost like hunger, that’s what nicotine does it has you in constant anxiety to be relieved. Like hitting yourself with a hammer only to enjoy how good it feels when you stop. People who don’t smoke and never did smoke cannot understand that feeling. Smoking isn’t enjoyable- smoking relieves the anxious nagging feeling being addicted to nicotine creates. That’s it. I always marveled at people that I worked with, how the non smokers didn’t Need cigarette breaks. I was practically pulling my hair out by the time I got my break. Well I quickly realized after I quit that they didn’t feel like I did at all. The had no reason to relieve an anxiety that they weren’t experiencing.
