I am thinking it may change the brain stressors for a period of time. But it is a stimulant i the short term. SO? It is what it is. >> Basil Blackridge - Fri, 21 Feb 2020 18:26:40 EST 0/98pTd5 No.174587 Reply Stress isn't something to relieve. Its an exhileration of mind power that happens in order to rise to the occasion. That's the best cig when you got shit going on, instead of chainsmoking on your matress with the tv blaring and nothing going on. Eventually that'll get boring and you'll find something to do just to make the cig taste better. So all your success isn't attributed to your passion and drive, it's that cigarette in the thick of things.

It's a little chemistry called the releasing of a chemical called "Dopamine", it is released because of the nicotine. When doing nicotine, dopamine is released. >> Hamilton Sabbleferk - Thu, 12 Mar 2020 16:05:37 EST qmt5XgyC No.174598 Reply >not smoking NewportsNigg-Up User is currently banned from all boards >> Albert Pockford - Sat, 21 Mar 2020 10:56:26 EST 5nsUJxuS No.174601 Reply >>174598you're a nigg-man >> Yoland Trevorport - Sat, 11 Apr 2020 22:28:36 EST cWYAyJd6 No.174617 Reply Smoking totally relieves stress.

More frequently than not, 1/4-1/2 of a cigarette will help alleviate some stress for me and certainly takes the edge off. But if I end up smoking a full ciggy, I often find that the nicotine buzz and chest tension associated with it DOES cause me more stress, and the stimmyness of the cigarette ends up causing me more stress. I do *remember* that the way nicotine effects me when I've been drinking is somewhat of a different story though. It's been a while for that.
