How smoking affects your mood
You probably smoke more when you are stressed. Smoking stimulates your body. Your heart beats faster. It will make you feel better but not for long. This is why it is addictive. The effect soon wears off. Then you will start to get withdrawal symptoms. These symptoms go away when you smoke again. Smoking can distract you from stress for a short time.
This is not a long term answer. Smoking does not make stress go away. If you are using cigarettes to cope with stress you could end up seriously ill.
