Age 12 and so addicted it isn't funny. I am intelligent and know what smoking does and have many ailments from smoking. I have tried to quit several times ,but the patches made me ill as did the gum. I tried going cold turkey and it wasn't a pretty sight. Trust me......you wouldn't want to be around me if I run out of cigarettes. When I started, as I am 59 years old, it was considered cool plus both of my parents smoked. The tobacco companies have added more addictive properties to them to get us hooked. I am strong in many areas but not on this issue. Tobacco will always be around because it's so lucrative even to Washington and many kickbacks to politicians. I feel like an outcast as I stand outside to get my "fix". In my state, we are banned from smoking in all places except part of the casinos.

17 I think, i held it as long as i can.
and i never gave in peer pressure (i applaud myself for that ^ ^)
although i tried it out of curiosity
I can quit tomorrow if you want.
I can switch it off just like that, i amaze my friends, and next year they see me smoking again
