Social and peer pressure is a big reason why people start for sure. Especially when you get to go outside and have a quick chat during work.
Comment on Nobody has ever lit a cigarette because of happiness. Smoking is a anxiety-coping mechanism.
fixmycode@feddit.cl 2 days agowhat I’m saying is that there’s no path of thought and desire that goes “oh man, I feel so good that I want to celebrate by smoking this thing”, when you say that it starts socially, I wonder how much of the need one feels to smoke is derived from social pressure, anxiety at the thought of not fitting in, or fear of missing out, or simple boredom.
