Fake Cigarrettes= Harmful??? - Drug Interactions / Side Effects Message Board

Emily4 · 06-17-2002, 04:28 PM

1 year ago, my friend and I rolled up index cards and stuffed dry leaves (regular not pot leaves) inside them. We then lit them of fire and inhaled the smoke by putting our mouths on the "cigarrette" on a side that had tape on it. Could this be harmful? I have not yet seen any side-affects except coughing for about a week afterward. Any info is accepted. Thanx.

breathing in any smoke is harmful to your lungs. i dont suggest that you continue smokeing "fake ciggerates" even though they dont have as much chemicals as ciggs do, i still dont suggest you continue it. why would you want to do that ne ways? good luck!

I haven't done anything like that since last year. I did it because my "FRIEND" pressured me into it. I had also thought that it was "COOL" then. I'm smarter now! Do you know if there can be harmful side-effects???

Well...why in God's name do you wanna smoke tree leaves and not the good tree (weed) leaves? LOL, no I'm kidding. Well, I don't see what harmful side effects there would be to smoking a leaf from like a tree in your front yard...but it's not like it gives you a buzz...or at least I wouldn't think it would...I haven't done it so I wouldn't know....

Apart from inhaling masses of carbon and carbon dioxide, you didn't do your self any harm.
