: Well, I must agree with
: basically all of the
: posts in reaction to
: your story. I was 13
: when I started, and I
: have been smoking ever
: since. I am now 42
: years old, and I have
: come to the terms that I
: will never quit.
:
: I have plenty of
: experience in the
: questions you have
: asked, so here's the
: answers based on what I
: have noticed: Once you
: are addicted, yes, you
: can become "more
: addicted" over
: time. As time goes by,
: it does become harder
: and harder to quit.
: Also, I smoked lights
: for years. Now, like
: you, I smoke Newports as
: well and I noticed a
: huge increase in
: addiction after I
: switched. So, yes, it
: is harder to quit
: something like Newports
: than Marlboro Lights.
: However, everybody is
: different. Some people
: get addicted faster and
: harder than others.
: From what you have told
: us, you sound similar to
: myself. I reached 2ppd
: by college, and I am
: currently a 3ppd smoker.
:
: I would imagine if you
: tried very hard, you
: could still quit. It
: will be very tough, but
: you now have to decide
: on what you'd like to
: do. You can stay a
: smoker, or you could
: quit. In 5 years, this
: decision will be a lot
: harder than it is now.
: Good luck Sara.

: Hi, posted before after
: being tricked, or
: convinced, by friends to
: try smoking. Started
: with marb lights, and
: somehow ended up smoking
: nearly 1 ppd of
: newports. I really
: enjoy it now, and for a
: long while really was
: conflicted about it and
: although I knew I was
: becoming addicted, still
: thought I would quit due
: to health issues. I'm
: in my 40's, and never in
: a million years thought
: I'd actually enjoy it.
: I don't even think about
: it now, just buy another
: pack when I get down to
: about 3 cigs. I can't
: see myself being able to
: quit even though I
: really want to. It's
: really like impossible.
: How do people do it???
: it really snuck up on
: me, and my friends gain
: no end to enjoying my
: newfound habit
: (addiction). I was so
: anti and always
: lecturing them. Now it
: seems I'm lighting up
: more than they are.
: Wow, everything about
: it, putting one in my
: lips, lighting it,
: blowing out the smoke,
: it just feels so
: satisfying. I don't get
: cravings, but urges, and
: always seem to give in
: to them. It's like I
: can't even get to a
: craving, although each
: morning I have two and
: they are great. I'm
: totally blown away that
: I could actually like
: it. Never expected
: that. I'm admitting now
: I smoke, but still do
: not smoke around anyone
: except my friends. it
: gets very hard at times.
: It's like the thought of
: quitting almost scares
: me because I don't feel
: like I can now. This
: site is interesting
: because so many seem to
: want to smoke. This
: blows my mind. I was
: just curious, never
: wanted to, still don't,
: but am shocked I like
: it, and cannot even seem
: to bring myself to try
: quitting anymore.
: AHHHHH!
: Now I understand what it
: must have been like for
: me to bug them to quit.
: You just can't. I never
: understood addiction,
: but now am in it, and
: thoroughly understand
: it. Question: once
: addicted, can you get
: "more
: addicted". The
: longer you smoke once
: addicted does it become
: harder to quit? Is it
: harder to quit something
: like Newports than Marb
: lights, or is it an
: individual thing,
: depending on the person.
: Thanks, Sara
