Hmmmm...I was 15 and trying to be cool because my OTHER friends were smoking. Probably didn't help that both my parents smoked, too. I think I was doomed from the start! BUT, I quit 17 months ago!! And I will NEVER pick up another one again! This is the 3rd time I quit and it's just too hard to ever go back again. Quitting this time wasPURE torture. (especially since my husband still smokes) Fortunately for me, he ONLY smokes at work...I told him I don't care, but NOT to bring it home, in the cars, etc. He has bveen very thoughtful and I don't even smell it on him anymore.
DON'T START! Once you do...it's almost impossible to stop. Grrrrr.

Because it used to be cool to smoke. It still is in the movies and kids see their favorite stars smoking.
Nicotine is more addictive than herion. Once you become addicted, it is very, very hard to stop. There are not only the physical affects of smoking, but psychological habits that form also, making quiting even harder.
The best way to lick it, is to NEVER START!

Simple, It looks sexy to smoke.( Have you seen the movie ..The Hunger)
Once you start smoking your brain needs it like Heroin. so you are hooked.
It would take a drug to ween you off the stuff.
I have never smoked these are just my observations of family and friends who are addicted.

Peer Pressure, they think it is cool... then comes addiction.
