Why did you smoke paper. Were you trying to imitate smoking a cigarette. Not the same sweetheart.
I'm glad you didn't try a cigarette but your behavior can lead to smoking. I would not do it again.

Um that was kind of dumb but hey when I was your age I tried to smoke a MacDonald's straw. An all that happens is you cough an feel like a idiot for a couple of minutes. It will not take a second off your life. I'm not going to tell you to not do it again as I hope you now realize not to do it. If you smoke a cigarette or are in a room full of people smoking then that will mess your health up, more in you inhale some one else's smoke. So stay away from any one smoking and be good.

Smoking anything is bad, and the more you play around with it, the shorter your life will be. Isn't that knowledge enough? Are you saying that if it'll only take a year off your life, why not smoke paper? Now paper, next????? Do yourself a favor sweetie, take it from me, don't start smoking! It WILL become your crutch! (I'm speaking from experience.) I too started smoking when I was 11. And now, even though I really want to quit, I just can't seem to suceed. One bad day, and I'm fallin off the wagon again! By the way, when I was 11, I started with straw (hay).

Hey there. I'm a sophomore in high school and yeah I remember when I was your age. I really, really think that you should not do things like that. Yes, smoke inhalation is harmful no matter what. Second, most paper is bleached and chemicals are added to it. You've heard of bleach right? It's extremely poisonous.
Smoking some paper isn't going to kill you directly, but it certainly will get you more accustomed to the concept of smoking. Friends of mine have had members of their families (they moms and dads) who have died far too young directly because of smoking cigarettes and the cancer it causes. So my advice to you, as a15 year old, steer clear of anything related to "smoking" whether it be weed or cigarettes or paper.
Please listen! It's for your own good. Yes, getting in the habit of smoking will take significant time of your life. And we don't want that.

There isn't any chemical like tobacco in paper but there are all kinds of chemicals that are used in the processing. Any thime you smoke anything you are inhaling smoke which damages your lungs etc. Why would you want to smoke paper? Why would you wan tto smoke anything at all? Think this over, you don't want to develop lung cancer, blindness (smoking contributes to macular degeneration) and an expensive habit that is treated as horrible by the rest of the people (because it is). Come on, I know you are smarter than that.

Smoking paper doesn't do nothing to you!!
The nicotine in a cigarette does.
There's paper around a cigarette and that's not what hurts people. Nicotine does.
But i wouldn't do it again if i was you.
And it doesn't take nothing of your life away.
I heard a cigarette takes 3-7 Min's every time you smoke one...

You know what? There is so much more exciting things to do...Smoking paper is stupid plus not fun...Find something fun to do.I work with kids your age and I can tell u what they do...They go roller bladeing,skate boarding,sleding on high hills,bowling,basketball,baseball,football,wresling,skating, arcade,and thats not even talking about card or board games.For girls they do cheerleading,dances,arcade,and pretty much the same thing the boys do...So u need to really find something fun to do.Good luck

It's bad only because you're inhaling smoke and chemicals used to make paper into your lungs. Lungs were only meant to handle clean, fresh air so give them a break and you'll avoid cancer years down the road.

Yes it's bad but it's something many kids have tried, including myself. The chemicals from the paper will go into your lungs, you have no idea what those chemicals are or how they can harm you by smoking them. Just don't do it again and you'll probably be fine.
