We all know that smoke from a cigarette is deadly. It contains cancer-causing substances and all that other stuff. I'll tell you what I think about doing. If you take a piece of paper and roll it up and tape it around and put it in the shape of a cigarette. In it, it's just an opening. Just paper. If you light one end of the paper in the shape of a cigarette, and smoke comes out of it, and i some of the smoke gets in you and in your lungs and whatever else would it do the same things a cigarette would? All it is is paper rolled up and lit at the end and inhaled and exhaled. It's just regular smoke, Not cigarette smoke. It doesn't have nicotine in it. Would it still harm my lungs? Would it harm me at all?

I have this problem where i get REALLY nervous .. i can probably get tablets for it or something but i want to try and improve on not being so nervous myself, not through tablets.
When i say nervous i mean physical sick and my head hurts and my stomach feels all tight and whats worse is it is over the most stupid things like going for a meal with work.
does anyone know of any ways of making myself more carm and relaxed.
i have tryed rescue remedies but they dont work.

Rapid pulse, elevated b/p, edema, pale lips and dusky nails along w/fever. Could this be pneumonia rather than congestive heart failure?

I am just curious about this subject because it popped up on my Internet. I am not gay and I just read that when two men have sex without using a condom they will get HIV or AIDS. The cause is sharing bodily fluids. What are the bodily fluids? Is it true that they'll get STD's?

Can I still develop the chicken pox after hanging around someone 7 days ago (last saturday) that developed chicken pox a few days ago?


P.S. I have had the chicken pox once in my life (3 years ago) but it was not bad it was a small dose.

I know you can get them more than once.
