Re: More smoking restrictions (is it enough?)

1 in 5 adults simultaneously coming off one of the most addictive substances on the planet, that'd be interesting.

Physical symptoms of nicotine withdrawal actually last for months. I know there's some myth about how once there's no nicotine in the body any more you magically have no physical withdrawal symptoms but that's complete nonsense. That's like saying any drug's withdrawal is over once the drug is metabolised fully which is ridiculous, physical withdrawal lasts for as long as it takes the body to adjust to no longer having the drug present which in the case of nicotine is a period measured in months rather than days due to the variety of effects on the brain.
