yeah surprise surprise people "fail" at quitting smoking because they don't actually want to quit and then the echis of the world make up excuses for them

mate, we want people to smoke less. we meet them where they are at


also, don't lack perspective that the physical dependency itself causes the desire to smoke and want smokes and inhibits the brains ability to have willpower and desire to quit. anyone who works in addiction will tell you willpower is a fuckin myth

i don't know how widespread it is (meaning eu-level), but at least in finland the brands and prices of tobacco are no longer visible anywhere. you need to know what you're buying and ask the cashier for it. also there are no smoking rooms, you can't smoke in bars, you have to go outside to smoke in the rain/snow.

so we can definitely make the barrier of entry higher too. and hey, it's working. teenagers and young adults are smoking way less than older generations were at their age.

this is not widespread, except maybe for smoking in bars where they cook food, that is ought to be covered by an eu regulation

man i remember when you could smoke on trains here that was wild. those carriages were grody as gently caress because they also automatically became designated party zones

now denmark has no smoking in any work place which includes bars & restaurants. i smoke because im cool but i dont mind having to step outside

for some reason theres been a recent uptick in teen vaping (like directly from non-smoker to vaper) though which is pretty funny cause that definitely does not look cool

we used to be able to p much anywhere too over here, but now like in p much all of eu we adhere to w hat basically amounts to no smoking outside specially designated areas + bunch of building/territory type smoking restrictions. as a rule tho no smoking indoors unless it is a properly equipped room specially for smoking.

teens vape because they can blow obnoxious amounts of smoke. they rarely vape nicotine unless they were smokers before. they basically like to carry a flavored hand held fog machine around and blow it at everyone.
