The point is you are away. You are not there anymore. You haven't been 'there' for a long time. Instead you escape into whatever you find, alcohol, running away, cutting, smoking, etc. And the only thing you run to when you choose those escape routes are drugs, death, disease and prostitution. You don't have the life skills to cope with every day teen life, so you really are not going to make it for long on your own. Pretty soon your being a guest on someone's couch will get old and you will be made to leave. Eventually those folks letting you hang and have that free smoke or free booze, will decide it is time to pay. And then you will be at risk for VD or a child that deserves more than a runaway who boozes it up and sleeps with everyone. Because if you cannot remember what you did when you drank, you cannot remember WHO you did. If your home life is bad, I am sorry, but that is part of life. There is good and bad in everyone's life. Tell a school counselor and get real help. Escaping for the moment doesn't fix your problems, it only prolongs them. Eventuall you will sober up and then you are left with the same old life. And you have to finish school and get a good education if you hope to have a good life one day. In today's society, the uneducated end up minimum wage slaves for life. That is reality. Newsflash: 99 percent of all teens DO NOT LIKE their parents. If they are abusive you get help, otherwise you stay home, go to school, get your education and then a job and get out.

me too!! im on about 15 to 20 a day. I stopped smoking in march last year for 4 weeks, but because evryone i know smokes i felt like an outcast. i was constantly thinking about smoking. I went to the nursr who gave me a chart where i had to write down everytime i had a cig and what made me smoke and how i felt before having a smoke. In the end i thought about it that much i started again. I was 14 when i started smoking im now 25 and totally wish i never started.

I wish I never started. I am trying to quit now been smoke free for 2 weeks now. It took my kids to get me to quit. It is the hardest thing i have ever done but i am sure it will be worth it in the long run. I am 30 and started when I was 15 and was up to almost 2 packs a day.

Same song going through my head too...
I quit smoking during the day, now I'm down to 3 or 4 a night, but after 25 years you'd think I would have moved on by now...

Me. I started when I was 15 or so. It was the dumbest thing I ever did. Here it is 22 years later and I don't know how to quit.
I don't give a rip about smoking bans and all that cr**. I want to quit for my health. I've tried numerous times and I always go back to it.
There's got to be a way...one that works.

Started at 15, got up to three packs a day by 25, and finally quit when I was 30 because I wanted to get pregnant. Still "clean" 18 years later and my son graduates from High School this year, with me healthy and alive to see him!

I started when I was about 10, quit at about age 65 with a 5 pack a day habit
Living with oxygen now
When I quit, I found I was paying $90 a week for pre-pre-school and only smokers were paying for babysitters

If there was one thing I could change in my life then that would be it, I would never have started smoking. Although I do enjoy my ciggies, Due to health & wealth I wish I had never started.
