Some of the experts in shisha
research have interviewed people who smoke shisha regularly. They found out 28%
wanted to quit smoking shisha, but well over half of them had tried to quit but
failed to do so.
A few years later, more research
was completed and it showed that some shisha smokers started to have cravings
similar to those seen in cigarette smokers. Remember that shisha smoking is
frighteningly different to cigarettes, because if you’re getting addicted to
shisha you simply take in deeper breaths and more puffs to get your body’s
desired levels of nicotine (called “titration”). This makes the smoker unaware
of how much nicotine they actually need to satisfy their body’s demands, and
it’s hard to measure. However, with cigarettes it is a lot more straightforward
– if you need more nicotine, you smoke more cigarettes – so it’s easier to
measure how addicted someone is to cigarettes compared to shisha.
Signs of Addiction
Whether you’re addicted to
alcohol, cigarettes, shisha, Facebook or computer games, the signs of addiction
are generally the same. If you find any of the following habits, then think
twice about how addicted you may be:
·
You spend too much time and money on shisha
compared to occasional shisha smokers
·
You go out of your way to smoke shisha,
especially at unordinary times, such as in the morning
·
You get annoyed if people criticise your shisha
smoking habits
·
You lie to people about your shisha smoking
habits
·
You smoke shisha on your own
·
You find it hard to quit smoking shisha even
though you’ve tried several times
·
Shisha smoking has impacted on your daily
routine i.e. you don’t get enough sleep because you smoke shisha late that also
makes you late for college or work.
