smoking while sick(cold,flu)

[soomz]

hey everyone this is my first post so be nice! i was just wondering does smoking while you have a cold/flu makes it worse...i find myself more droggy and sleepy which is good =D

 

[gizmo]

I smoked allot of hash when I was sick last, made recovery slower, but made dealing with it easyier;

yeah i have a sore throat so i been making firecrackers. helps a lot more than i thought.

yeah if anything smoking should make you tired and sleepy. i hate being awake and feeling like shit. i would much rather be sleeping.

when im sick i usually don't seem to get very high. i still smoke and i do kinda feel it but it's wierd, it just doesn't feel the same.

I sure doesn't help you get well faster, but I figure if you are just sitting around feeling crappy, you might as well get stoned too.

I haven't been sick in years. Not even a little cold. Of course I wash my hand 6-7 times a day. My sister works for a doctor at a hospital and she's always bringing these things home. I just don;t catch them.

I was sick this last week, had the flue or something. After smoking a J my headaches went away and the general sick feeling lessened, which was nice.

i never wash my hands and ill admit it i dont take very many showers. a new study recently showed people are actully getting sick more often because they try to be to clean. a lil' dirt never hurt anyone. i haven't been sick in years either. being dirty has built my immune system up i am convinced haha. plus i eat and exercise very well. not much junk food in my house.

yea, just that mountain dew lol
although im sure thats a potent anti-microbial in and of itself...


when i get sick though smoking is bad cause if you have a chest cold at least it jsut makes it worse but a bit of vaping or eating does help

As the great George Carlin once explained (if any of you ever saw that particular standup). I agree, you need to build up your immune system and not be obsessed with staying clean to avoid germs. Germs are everywhere, gotta get used to it.

Smoke with a bong or eat it when you're sick, imo. I always do. It makes me not feel as sick. I've lived in houses with roomies, same age, similar physical health, and when illness strikes the whole household, I've gotten over it quicker than they did, and they weren't smoking at all... I was.

its hard to not smoke when you are sick...

but honestly, when I have to puke i cannot smoke...

I usually like to puke, then smoke...

(wait i think im talking about hangover sick )

 

[_angst_]

Smoke... so that you don't puke.

I find that smoking and taking a phenergan (or a benadryl) is pretty good at keeping the nausea away.

Puking is not always essential to beating an illness.
