I was 17 when I smoked my first cig, it has been 1 year since then I only smoked with my friends between now and then I must of smoked like 5 packs of cigs, now that I am 18 I can buy cigs and I bought 2 packs today, I want to smoke the 2 packs and probably quit because I am afraid of getting cancer and other things that are bad from smoking too, I think that smoking is a bad habit, but I am not addicted i go months without a cig then I will get just buy a pack and smoke it in a week or so, do you think that I have already created damage in my lungs, I want to smoke pot but not cigs, do i have bad lungs or permit damage?

    If your not addicted then why smoke at all? Like any other drug (although Tabasco is a legal one) any use can cause damage. Stop before you become addicted because you will certainly cause your lungs damage then and it's one of the hardest drugs to quit

    Its not OK. Cigarettes are bad juju. I smoke and the addiction is not easy to kill once you've got it going. Trust.me I've done everything from pain pills to heroin and never been addicted to anything but cigarettes. No I'm not promoting heroin. I'm just trying to put the addiction cigarettes have caused for me into perspective

    Honestly, take it from me, you think you can smoke one here and there, but wait until you get stressed and crave one... it's an inevitable path you're heading down if you don't give up while it's easy to. I'm 22 and smoke 3 or 4 a day, having cut down from about 10.
    I had the same exact feeling, have one here and there and it'll be fine, it's not... before you know it, you fancy that cig after lessons, after work... it becomes an excuse to break up the day...

    You are addicted. you just don't realize it yet. Maybe not chemically for now but consider that you always come back to them.

    I think you should try switching to a healthier alternative.

    I don't smoke and I know that's unhealthy, but I've been wanting to smoke for a long time. It makes doing nothing look great and there's something classy about... I'm wondering why you started in the first place... Was it peer pressure or just curiosity?
    Tabacco isn't healthy for your body and if you look at what most cigarettes are made of it's absolutely atrocious!

    You probably have caused some damage to your lungs. So, I suggest that you switch to something else before, the chemicals make you sick.
