First time smoking a cigarette

will your first cigarette hurt your throat even if you smoke weed regularly? (Just curious.)

From someone that's smoked both cigarettes and weed many times, just don't

Probably not, but why smoke a cigarette? Best case scenario is you hate it and never smoke one again. Worst case scenario is you enjoy it.

Stick with weed!

Please for the love of God don't do it. I just quit cigarettes after 13.5 years of smoking. I've tried quitting a dozen times. It's not worth it. I wish I never started. I smoked weed for 2 years before trying cigarettes and I wish I just stuck with that.

Cigarette smoke has a very different feel because cigarettes are designed to maximize the nicotine intake per draw. Tobacco leaves are much drier and burn both hotter and faster.

So yes, probably.

Also don’t. I smoked from 17 to 27, failing to quit until my 7th or 8th attempt. Now I’m 56 and I still want one sometimes.

i amoked joints with tobacco in them when i was a teenager (thats just how my dad taught me lol)

but when i went to a full cigarette the first time i was really surprised by how much more bitter and dry the smoke was compared to joints

i got dizzy halfway through and i wish i stopped there and just cut them out of my life but i started smoking cigs as a kind of socially acceptable self-harm in a poor attempt of dealing with my mental health following a violent sexual assault (i thought that if i could hurt myself quietly all day then i wouldnt want to hurt myself badly when i was alone at night? it didnt work 0/10 dont recommend)

ik everyones said this but really, you shouldn't smoke a cigarette, stick to weed. if you really want to know though, tobacco smoke has a bit of a different flavour to it and it might taste a bit different to weed, however if you're used to smoke in your lungs and throat, then it will most likely not bother you too much.
