Can you imagine, how much character one has, with rejecting ALL those cigarettes!

yes!
i've seen people not able to stop!

Almost all my friends smoke :-/

And when I was in hospital for a minor surgery, I heard a man was being told by a docter he was going to die because of lung cancer, caused by excessive smoking - and the man was very calm, he knew it already.


I HATE that.

Believe me.  It's harder to kick than cocaine is.

I wish my cousin could have stopped! she might still be alive. :-(

My Grandma too. :-(

There was something on the North West news the other night about research into kids that start smoking, suggesting that family influences may actually be stronger than peer pressure when it comes to picking up the habit.

My mum smokes, as did my grandad, uncle and neighbours etc. They were all adamant that we shouldn't start smoking, yet they all seemed so unwilling to stop. As a kid that looks massively hypocritical, but luckily for me, I couldn't stand the smell; frankly I found it repulsive and had no wish whatsoever to start.

Since then, however, I've had cigars on a fair few occasions, and don't mind saying that I enjoyed them (not that your mouth feels too good next morning :lol:). The fact that I in no way felt cravings for them proves to my mind the long held belief many smokers, my folks included, have that cigs are laced with substances to enhance their addictiveness.

Not sure at the moment.  Give it another week and I'll feel better I reckon.

Neither of my parents smoke, yet both my sister and I do/did.

But had you been smoking 30 fags every day for 10 years though?

Yup, that sounds about right. I smoke about a pack a day. If I smoke American Spirits, I can cut that down to half, since they burn so long.

My entire family smokes. I didn't start smoking, until *AFTER* I got out of the military and was in college. Of course, I did a lot of things that I shouldn't have done, during those times, which is why I probably never finished Uni.  :-(
