How exactly did you start smoking in the first place?
I honestly don't see why anyone would even start. I mean, if the thought of inhaling smoke isn't enough to deter you, what about pictures of tarry, cancerous lungs?
Good luck on quitting. If you have to, lock yourself in a reverse panic room that will unlock itself in 3 months (or however long it takes to get over the cravings).

thanks all, last cig i had was at 4 am ( or 3 forgot which but smoked about a half a cig that time ) and its 3:17 pm here now
i need to quit to. i been smoking on an off, military is what got me lol. u dont get a smoke break unless u smoke so u tend to take it up. plus when siting in fox hole an life is sucky. nothen beats a smoke, an when u cant smoke at night do to snipers. pop in a dip. its a hard thing to kick once it becomes the norm. but anyone can if u realy want to. lots of programs an help out there to help u quit. good luck with doc visit hope its nothing bad.

Except doesn't heroin give you intense rushes of euphoria? It's still stupid to start, but I kind of understand why someone would want to experience that. And then there's the physical dependence you can develop to heroin to the point of dying if you stop taking it.
From what I've read in books, smoking gives you a lightheaded, dizzy feeling. I don't get why someone would start. Unless I'm missing something, since I've never actually smoked, and every time I pass by someone on the street who's smoking, the smell alone makes me feel ill and breathing in any of the secondhand stuff makes me cough like crazy.
My point is that people do stupid things for things that feel good: drug use, unprotected sex, daredevil stunts, etc. I even understand why someone would develop a dependence on alcohol, since it makes you feel all giddy. But why smoking? Is there some pleasure in smoking that I am not aware of?
