Many smokers will scoff at this story. They're absolutely convinced that smoking relaxes them and makes them more happy. Unfortunately many of them are also convinced that they are not addicted, and that the dangers of smoking are greatly exagerrated. I'm not sure what anyone can say to them to get them to pay attention to reality.
