Occasional smokers think the health warnings don't apply to them, but the odd cigarette is more damaging than you think

The article from The Telegraph discusses the misconceptions and self-deceptions of "social smokers" who believe they are at less risk from smoking-related health issues because they do not smoke regularly. It highlights that even occasional smoking can lead to significant health risks, including cancer, heart disease, and respiratory issues. The piece debunks myths like "I only smoke when I drink" or "I can quit anytime," pointing out that nicotine addiction can develop quickly and that there's no safe level of tobacco consumption. It also provides advice on how to quit, suggesting methods like nicotine replacement therapy, understanding personal triggers, and seeking support from friends, family, or professional services. The article emphasizes the importance of recognizing the dangers of any level of smoking and encourages smokers to take steps towards cessation, regardless of how infrequently they smoke.
