Cigarettes and smokeless tobacco kill hundreds of thousands of Americans every year. You know those rubber bracelets that were created to bring attention to different causes? The Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids created a red one with the number 1,200 on it. Why 1,200? That's the number of people who die each day due to smoking.
The nicotine and other poisonous chemicals in tobacco cause lots of diseases, like heart problems and some kinds of cancer. If you smoke, you hurt your lungs and heart each time you light up. It also can make it more difficult for blood to move around in the body, so smokers may feel tired and cranky. The longer you smoke, the worse the damage becomes.
you get lung cancer
liver goes bad

They are starting to outlaw cigarettes in a lot of places. And recently the tobacco companies have been packing quite a bit more nicotine in the suckers.
If you want the addiction back...hey by all means...
But, I suggest you stay strong! Buy gum or something, take out some stress at the gym punching a bag? Relax, and do something for yourself, have a pamper party, take a bath or something. I mean You've gone without this long!

It's good that you are trying to quit. Good thinkin'! Just don't start again because you can get cancer and smoking can ruin your life and also other peoples. Try getting addicted to something healthier, like gum. Right now I'm addicted to breakfast cereal!

After a while it builds up in your lungs and you can die from lung cancer, emphysema and other respiratory diseases. It makes you age faster, rhasphy voice, and yellow fingers. Its selfish because you aren't thinking about your love ones and how it will effect them. You can give them cancer by second hand smoke.
