My grandmother started smoking after her doctor suggested that she take it up in order to help her lose weight after pregnancy. She smoked the rest of her life.
On a related note, I also wonder I wonder how many older people self-treated ADHD/ADD with nicotine without realizing what was going on.
Shit. I didn't realize that I was doing this to myself until I got diagnosed as an adult about 10 years after I quit smoking.
Still do. ADHD is still not recognized in lots of places and I certainly do, in form of vape. Tried lowering concentration only to find myself smoking at higher power and more often. Also, energy drinks, I don't know what they put in them but withdrawal from them feels exactly like quitting smoking.
Did she live to be a 110 years old
Nope. Not even close.
Do you think she would have lived longer if she smoked more?
Kind of a weird passive-aggressive statement js, they didn't imply their grandma lived to be any particular age. In fact from the statement we can't tell at all, "the rest of her life" could've been 6 months (she fell asleep with a cigarette in her mouth and the set the bed on fire).
