Smoking - Nicotine Addiction? This is odd.

[enhancion01]

Now swim is wondering how this works.

Swim has been smoking for about 5 years.
Swim has gone to jail quite a few times.

Now, when swim is on the streets he craves cigs when he doesent have them and chain smokes when he does have them.

When swim goes to jail he has no cravings or any physical withdrawls or side effects. Seriously none.

Now, if nicotine is so addictive and all that how come he doesent even think about them as soon as he gets in the police car?

Yet, as soon as he hits the gates of freedom the first thing he does is light up a smoke.

Swim is thinking he is more addicted to accually smoking them then the nicotine.

Anyone have any thoughts?

yea man

its mental shit

im gonna go out on a limb here and say MOST people dont fucking curl in a ball and throw up when they dont have a smoke.

its like coke..

the mental addiction is what makes it so strong

you start believing you NEED that shit........

in jail its like.... nah im cool.....

but when you know you COULD have one, its suddenly like OH MY GOD THAT WOULD BE AMAZING RIGHT NOW

for alot of coke users, they get addicted to chopping up the rock, and crafting the lines, and sniffing shit

the high just is a bonus

thats how swim was

word

EDIT: nice fucking way of writing your post by the way.

more people need to appreciate the double spacing in between lines

Understanding this can be as simple as understanding mass hysteria. The mind controls the body. The mind controls the mind. If SWIY is in jail and has no cravings, then what all is going on that is filling the gaps for nicotine? What all is happening that has SWIY mind on a new priority level. One with nicotine at the bottom. Simple, that which is jail. SWIM finds that levels of nicotine can vary the withdrawl. When SWIM stoped chewing tobaco there was no cravings(strange becasue of the extremly high nicotine levels). SWIM's mind went to a lightening fast, delirious like state. After SWIM smoked self rolled no filter cigarettes, if swim had an intire day with no time to smoke, swim had NO withdrawls.. Filtered store bought cigarettes give SWIM intense withdrawls. Of course all of this can be related to what was going on in SWIM mind. It seams nicotine has many interseting properties.
