For many years there were some unsolved questions about depression and how it influences a person to start smoking cigarettes. A person can be influenced to do bad things when he is in depression, he even can start smoking, thinking that this is the right choice to solve his problems. The reality about this state of mind is not so bright and has only a few solutions to pass it. An important question was raised among doctors about how much cigarettes help in depression.

Both men and women have this dark feeling and they all are looking for answers. It wasn’t decided yet that depression is a disease or not. Anyway it is a serious affection and it has to be treated. People believe that by smoking a cigarette they will solve their problems easier and that cigarettes will bring some relief to the suffering person.

In a cigarette's ingredients you will find nicotine; this is a very dangerous substance which can affect the health of a person. Nicotine creates a feeling of relaxation. A lot of persons use cigarettes for stress relief. But these good effects are only for a short period of time, we all know what harm is done for a long term. When someone suffers from depression it means that they have a problem that is in their brain. This issue is studied by doctors for years.

Persons who suffer from depressions most of the time are sad and have no interest in their regular activities. For them it is difficult to eat or even to sleep. They have different thoughts about suicide or that there is no reason to live. Those persons have been diagnosed by doctors with energy loss and slowness. But we can say for sure that cigarettes don’t work for depression. They do not cure the depression; they can just bring more damages.

There were cases when a depressed person started to smoke and they had more dark thoughts about life than before. They even thought about death. This is such a harmful way of thinking and is dangerous too. Many persons think that smoking is the best way for relaxation, but it is not. Depression is a very challenging mental state.

If we want to know what cures this mental state, we must look at past results. There were not so many cases when smoking cigarettes have helped anyone. When we smoke we are inhaling chemicals, which are so bad for our body and mind. They don’t bring any positive effects, only damages. In the past Indians and aboriginals used natural herbs for healing diseases. But nowadays there are used chemicals in the cigarettes and they are not natural.

Depression has to be cured from the point where it had started, this means from the brain. The brain is the one that is taking and giving instructions. So the cure has to be found there.
