Answer 2

You get addicted to the nicotine real fast. When you smoke you usually smoke a cigarette every hour or so all day long, or more sometimes. You get used to smoking after you eat , when you talk on the phone, before you go to sleep, etc. part of it is psychological, you find it very hard to do any of those things without smoking. I smoked for over 20 yrs, I quit almost 1 yr ago only after almost dieing from 2 very bad asthma attacks in one day. I had no choice then, but it was still very hard. It's getting easier finally, but I still crave it at times.

Answer 3

You're both addicted and form habits.

So you're physically addicted, if the nicotine levels drop you will want it. You also develop habits around the smoking, say smoking on breaks at work, which are hard to break.

However it's not that hard to quit, people are just afraid to make the leap, because they know it'll be a pain in the ***. It's a big step to turn your life around. They don't remember that there was life before smoking, and they can have life again after smoking.
