I made this pact with myself to quit by the time I am thirty, my thirtieth birthday is nearing in a couple of months, should i quit? Only smoking five cigs, does that make me healthy? I am almost afraid of quitting, knowing that it just might lead me off a cliff to worse things, like drugs.
Cigarettes are not healthy, but modern society acts like they are the ONLY unhealthy vice in the world. I think it's weird when obese people, alcoholics, people with eating disorders etc. freak out because someone smokes. You might not be the healthiest you could be, but you may still be healthier than some of your non-smoking peers depending on factors.
No smoking at all is considered healthy...You had better quit now before you become a compulsive smoker, I had relatives who smoked a pack a day, that's why I say I 'had' relatives. You will definitely have withdrawal problems, but if you make a conscious effort to avoid any intoxicants, you'll do great. Maybe you're using the drugs argument as an excuse to keep smoking?
I used to smoke around 2 packs a day. Lately I rarely smoke cigerattes. I do really like nice cigars though and will have a cigar on occasion. I hate the cheap cigars though. I only like expensive ones. I like good pipe tobacco too. The only cigerattes I like anymore are pure tobacco ones like nat shermans and american spirits. Tobacco is very addictive but it really bad for health. I recommend at least quitting tobacco with additives.
