Question

before i hate smokers.. now i hav to become somebody i hate! helpp....

Answer 1

its different for different people. some people dont smoke and get lung cancer, others smoke for 60+ years and dont get it. everyones body is different. I wouldnt worry about it

Answer 2

Yes in the long run it can affect your health no matter how much you smoke and soon you will be addicted. I was 14 when I smoked my first cigarette. I only smoked once in a while also but now I'm addicted. Theres no real way to get rid of smoke maybe chew a piece of gum and spray yourself with perfume. Thats what I did and no body seemed to notice. But still if your around someone who don't smoke theres a chance they can smell it on you.

Answer 3

The chance of lung cancer in smokers is 5 times higher than in non-smokers. Also, in smokers, lung cancer types are usually much more aggressive and therefore with higher rate of death within the first 5 years of diagnosis.

Also, smokers have a several times higher risk of developing cancer of the tongue, lips etc. This is horrible. If you have to have your tongue or lip with a tumor surgically removed, you will think about this message you read when you were 22 and why you didn't quit smoking that day...

Answer 4

You'll die, that's for sure! The thing is that you'll eventually die no matter what, so don't worry. Light up & relax!
I've been smoking since I was 12, and I'm almost 40 (2 packs a day) & still kickin strong! I can walk up 8 flights of stairs to my office any given day & not be out of breath.
Just stay active & smoke, smoke, smoke that cigarette!

Answer 5

my dad is addicted to smoking since he was 15. now he is 38 and he didn't stop yet. he got crazy with it. no you will not die soon. unless you try to stop. its a big sacrifice because stoping a thing you are addicted to is really hard. I'm addicted to drinking too much soft drinks. in 1 day i can drink 20!!! i really tried to stop. yes it was really hard for me. but i got through with it. take a deep breath and take it little by little. like in 1 day smoke only twice. or even once until you can take it all up. try your best. if you cant take it than you will really need to fix your self up. my dad never stoped smoking. he kept on going. and now he is a mess.

Answer 6

Quit now. You will die. You will also kill those that have to breathe in that horrid stuff. Quitting is the hardest thing you'll ever have to do, but you have to do it. Cold turkey is the best way. Make today the last day you'll ever smoke. The only thing that keeps me from lighting up again is that I never want to have to quit again (I quit 16 years ago).

Answer 7

There is risk to life. Anything you do carries some risk. Do not worry too much, as there have been people that have been heavy smokers and have lived to over 100, but few.

Answer 8

I don't know if you will die or when, but since you've started smoking you've significantly increased your chances for health problems - some of which could ultimately lead to death.
They only help you need is to quit smoking.

Answer 9

We are all going to die anyway...but I think its inevitable if we smoke there will be many complications in our lives. Trouble breathing, pregnacys, high cholesteral, vascular disease, skin problems and ageing...not too mention it makes your teeth yellow and clothes stink!!! I hate smoking...and guess what? I smoke..its very addictive..it you just started...Please stop!!!

Answer 10

You will probably make it to 40, maybe 45 if you keep it under two packs a day... maybe less. Kinda hard to say. The only bad thing is, it's a slow, painful, and horrible death.

Answer 11

You better quit! Smoking plays havoc with your arteries! We all die eventually, only God knows when, but some push their time, by doing foolish things. God gave us our bodies and if you damage it through your own negligence, don't blame anybody but your self!
