Question:

Thoughts of starting smoking at 14....?

I am 14 years old and i am really stressed and i have been craving a cigeratte even though i've never smoked. i dont want to get sick or die or anything. if i have one or a few cigerettes will i get sick, because i have a really weak immune system, and i want to lose weight and all this stuff.
what are the dangers of smoking at 14, if i am so stressed i can't take it anymore?
don't flame at me and say i cant smoke cos im young, i want answers.


Answers:

I started smoking at 14 ... you'll probably feel light headed when you have your first cigarette, but once you get used to it you'll be fine. It only took me a couple of smokes to get the hang of it, but for some people it could take one or two packs.

I find smoking to have a calming effect and I enjoy it. No, you're absolutely not going to get sick and die ... I've smoked for 10 years now and am in pretty good shape. People only die from smoking after smoking like a pack a day for 40+ years, and even then only 10% of smokers die from lung cancer.

As far as losing weight, smoking tends to have an appetite suppressant effect.

So there's an honest answer ... I know you already know its not good for you, so you don't need a lecture
