They do relieve stress though, at a biochemical level. Also they cause harm and you shouldn’t smoke. The harm isn’t worth it and they cause physical dependency, including elevated stress when you don’t smoke that can only be alleviated by smoking, furthering the dependency. Don’t smoke.
But lying about the short term benefits is just like DARE equivocating marijuana and hard drugs: people wind up trying it out anyway, realize they were lied to, and disregard the actual beneficial warnings because the first one was obviously a lie.
Cigarettes do not relieve stress- they only cause harm to the smoker and to those around them. Smoking is bad. Don’t smoke.
Edit: Wow, we’ve got a lot of smokers here on lemmy.
Yes dad

What? Smokings bad for you? No way. I think they would tell people about it if that was true.
👏👏👏
No shit. Feels fucking excellent every now and then, though.
YOU CAN’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO! I’M A MAN NOW!

At least not until you’ve smoked long enough to get addicted.
I’m told by 2 coworkers they relieve stress but the effect Is so temporary you have to constantly smoke. So it’s not worth it.
