How Many Bowls do You Smoke a Day?

[Servant King]

Also exclusively an outdoor smoker, but many days I don't smoke at all. I would say I'm anywhere from 0-5 bowls per week, and on a day I have one, it's usually only one, rarely more. Most I've ever had in one day was three (birthday), and that was really pushing it.

Usually 1 or 2 per day, although I'd like to smoke way more than that. Just don't have the time.

 

[ParkitoATL]

Since I started smoking a pipe last winter, I have averaged about three bowls a day, with many days 5-6. Even with a conservative estimate of two per day, I'm already well past 700 bowls, very hard to believe.

I think you're Starting to Get Obsessed...

Anywhere between 4-7 bowls but I also dip pouches and a cigar with coffee first thing in the morning.

Then read up on it, both types, physical and mental. Increasing your knowledge about will be an asset when dealing with those with an addictive personality in particular. Life ain't as simple as you seem to believe. It's not easy living with an addictive personality. A little understanding might help you to empathize with others. That's a great thing, empathy is.

Well at least he admitted he doesn’t know what he’s talking about so that’s something..I guess

I read up on it and many scientist believe that there is no scientific evidence to believe that addictive personalities even exist.

For me it varies from week to week. I work a 4 on 4 off schedule, working 11-hour shifts. The days I work, I usually don't smoke, but on the rare occasion that I do, it's usually a cigar. If I do have a pipe, I'll have 1-2 bowls. On my days off, when I do sit down for a pipe, I'll have anywhere from 4-6 bowls.

Addiction is a thing. Whatever alters your brain chemistry so that your brain doesn't produce the chemicals you would normally produce yourself since an outside source is supplying the reaction. You have no clue what addiction is.

Huh. Addiction doesn’t exist. And I thought I wasn’t going to learn anything new today on the internet lol

I said Addictive Personalities. Not addiction. Calm down. I was told to look it up and thats what I found.

Don't keep your empty tins. That's really frightening, especially when they're £20 each.

 

[seanv]

Monday to Friday I barely smoke. Maybe 2 bowls a week. One weekends I usually smoke 2 bowls a day. A heavy day would be 3 bowls.

I've read the same thing from numerous sources. Whatever their personality no one becomes addicted to something until they start taking it.

Not addictive personalities. You literally stated you don’t understand addiction and made an ignorant comment about it. As someone who has seen close friends and relatives fight addiction of many forms I’m going to call you out on it.

You are correct. But then I got told to look up addictive personalities, and I did. I’m not trying to offend anyone. Nothing I said is untrue.

Then go edit your original comment. Quitting cigs is not an easy thing to do because, addiction. It’s absurd these days when we know so much about it to just tell someone to quit in such a cavalier method.

Lets not derail the thread, we can agree to disagree.

Never been able to keep count myself, always get distracted with the days proceedings. Maybe if & when I reach retirement it'll be something that merits my full attention.
