Why do i smoke so much shisha (hookah)?
You are messing with your brain’s reward system. The feel-good endorphins your body produces are very expensive (they take a lot of time and effort for your body to make them), and when your body does produce them, it only produces a small amount. You are short circuiting your body’s ability to produce (and feel) your natural endorphins by smoking. It’s much easier for your brain to force you to crave more pot instead of making the endorphins itself. If your body only makes 1 unit of feel-good chemicals, and is use to enjoying only 1 unit of it at a time, imagine what it does to give your body 50 units all at once. That’s exactly what you are doing when you smoke pot. It’s a similar system for food too. If you want something sweet, your body can deal with a piece of fruit in a healthy way. But if you give it the unnatural punch of a giant slice of chocolate cake, your body get’s a massive rush (not all of it good for you) and the next time you crave something sugary, you want the cake,
