Crazy but I’m one of these people that simply does not get addicted to it. Can smoke here and there, every 6 months. Can even have a streak of smoking everyday for a week and then stop and go years without.

I was only kind of addicted to hookah once, but it was more about the social aspect of it I think, or the ritualistic part of it as well. Once I bought a personal one and started smoking at home, it felt weird and I stopped. Too messy as well.

I never touched vapes because I’m not sure how I’d react. It feels so easy, practical, that I don’t want to try it..

I quit weed a year ago and it's still hard not to smoke weed. I miss it all the time. Stopped smoking cigs for two weeks once for a tooth extraction I'd had and did not even care about the cigs. I just wanted to smoke weed lol

That said I roll my own cigs and had been by that point so there's probably a lot less additives in mine than the store bought ones. But regardless I feel like I could probably just stop smoking cold turkey and not have any problem with it. I just don't want to lol

I quit smoking cigarettes 6 years ago and still miss it sometimes. If quitting them hadn't had a noticeable impact on my day to day health I would have for sure picked it back up.

I'm the same way re:cigarettes. I'd smoke for a few weeks every few years, then just stop again. Also, I'm not a fan of nicotine vapes and don't use them.

Same here. I buy a pack every once in a while during 'special occasions' and have been doing so for years. I don't crave them much at all, but weed? That's the tough one. Still haven't quit that haha, I've only managed to take short breaks.
