Is it normal that smoking cigs sometimes makes me paranoid?

Sometimes after I smoke a cigarette I find myself feeling hyper-aware of my surroundings and paranoid that someone is going to sneak up on me. (I always smoke by myself outside.) I've also noticed that it sometimes scrambles my thoughts. I've heard of this with smoking pot, but has anyone else experience this with cigarettes?

    Nicotine is a mild stimulant, so it is possible for nicotine to have this effect on someone. People forget that nicotine and caffeine are drugs, even though they only have a small effect.

    This used to happen to me all the time. Not very nice, is it?

    It's probably the nicotine. I don't smoke though, so I can't say for sure.
