Detailed Answer:
Hi! Welcome to health care magic! Thanks for sharing your concerns with us. We will try to help you in best way possible.

Based on your query, it's side effects range from general side effects like addiction and other neurological side effects including memory issues as well as delayed cognition. It also leads to dependance which is itself a grave dilemma and people have to seek psychiatrist or addiction centres advise and follow up to get off it eventually.

Local side effects relating lung nay include increased tendency towards development of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases like bronchitis etc as well fibrosis. It may lead to decreased functional capacity, shortness of breath, and increased morbidity.

I would suggest you to quit it as soon as possible or seek advise of addiction centres for direct psychologist council or group therapies. Wishing you a great health ahead.

Hope this has answered your query, if you have any more questions, feel free to ask. Regards.
