Really? Nicotine?
That's very interesting. I wonder why those who are dependent on nicotine are higher at risk. I would have guessed that it would have been alcohol or other drugs, since they seem to impair the mind so much. Aside from the addictive qualities, it doesn't seem that nicotine affects a person's mind... at least, that's not how it looks from the outside. I've never smoked, so I guess I can't say for sure. It just seems odd to me.
