You can stop...you haven't smoked that long. Just don't get them anymore...change your reasons for wanting to smoke..you want to be different..color your hair purple..not your teeth yellow! Good Luck!

Cut down veryyyyyyyyyy slowly. Count how many you have a day. The next day, smoke a 1/2 a cigarette less. Yes, throw away the other half when done. Stay with THAT amount for a few days. Then do it again. Cut down by another 1/2 a cig a day. Keep doing that. Make SURE to count correctly how many you have. Before you know it, you will not be addicted and you will not need to smoke.

In the 60's in UK there was a series of advertisements against smoking. One in particular used to make me quite ill and helped me to give up cigarette smoking for many, many years. I have smoked a pipe for the last twenty years. The advertisement in question clearly stated that when you have a smokers cough and you bring up phlegm, it is often green. This is pus and is the same as when you cut yourself and the wound gets infected and you can squeeze out green pus. With smoking it comes from the lungs which have been damaged and infected. Green phlegm pus - just think about that when you next put a cigarette into your mouth. (I am sorry if it sounds disgusting, but it is true).

you haven't smoked long enough to be really addicted.just stop.it's not worth your health going bad.my boyfriend got mouth cancer from smoking.he went through chemo and radiation for 8 weeks.the cancer was still there, so,he just went through 12 hrs of surgery removing 2/3 of his tongue and having his jaw bone reconstructed and also the floor of his mouth.was in icu for9 days and still in hospital since 9/11/06. next time you think about a cigarette think about what i've told you..best of luck to you.

there are MANY ways to Quit.
*cold turkey. just stop it's very hard but a lot of peole have done it.
*patches. try getting a patch or something.
*try doing something to get your mind off of it. go for a bike ride, go shopping, anything really. just do something to get it off your mind.
i know you wan to be different from your twin sister and i know this is harsh but you were really stupid to have started this habit and at such a young age. there are different ways you and your sister could be different. you could die your hair a different color, hang out with a different group of friends, dress differently, but you shouldn't have done something soooo stupid. this will change your life and health dramtically soon and fast. it doesn't matter how you stop, you just NEED to stop soon!!!!! Hope i helped in someway. GOOD LUCK!!!

hopefully you've learned your lesson.
just make sure that there are no cigarettes in the vicinity! if there're none available, then you obviously can't smoke anymore
or, try those chewing gums or patches, y'know
or talk to a doctor, maybe a teen doctor

well not being a dumb ***** would definitly take car of that but since that doesnt seem to be an option I'll tell you this and listen very closely, its all in your ******* head it takes the body a good amount of time of taking a chemical before thier body starts to need it.
