how long till i'm addicted to cigs

I've always wanted to see what heroin n cigarette addiction was like, althought I won't do h

theyre so much different bro. opiate addicts think about the drug constantly but cigarettes are more like a weird subconscious habit. sometimes ill light up a cigarette and start smoking before i even realize what i just did haha.
 
If you really want to see if you can beat ciggarette addiction, you should smoke a pack and a half a day for 3 years straight, and then kick it like adidas.. good luck get back to us in 3 years bro
 
I smoked 2 packs a day for 10 years........I just threw a carton in the trash one day and didn't notice a damn thing....

I used to smoke when drinking even after that but now that I don't drink I have no interest....


Smoking cigs is a nervous habit IMO, not an addiction.........More like chewing your fingernails.....
 
I'm think I feel the addiction creeping up on me now. Honestly just stop now it's alot cooler to not get too deep into it then to say I was addicted and then I stopped. Cig's are so stupid, it's like why even bother smoke to feel normal, when you could save yourself the trouble and feel normal in the first place.
 
Meh if the dude wants to smoke let him smoke. I get enough shit on a daily basis about cigs and honestly it does nothing to make me want to quit. I had people warning me about getting addicted when I first started. Did it stop me? No. Do I even regret it? Nope. I enjoy smoking and when I'm ready to quit if I ever decide I am, I will quit. If not, I'll die happy with a cigarette hanging from my lip.
 
I smoked socially for 2 years and then bam an addiction. I don't sweat it much cause I had to beat percocet and alcohol recently so for now I will smoke and in time I will quit. Kind of a retarded idea if you ask me.
 
Cigarettes suck anyway. They really suck, but they're really addictive. Worst ratio out of all the drugs IMO. This could very well have been a joke, but if it isn't, follow our advice, man.
Almost no one follows the advice... :|
And trying it, then saying "shit, this doesn't seem so addictive"
is just one of the tricks it uses to pull you in before it gets you addicted.
Heroin and cigarettes are really different from each other in every way, so try both if you really want to get a taste of what it's like. ;)

(don't)

It's not really an all or nothing thing, addiction. You can be a little bit addicted or extremely addicted. Maybe you're already slightly addicted, probably more psychologically given how infrequently you smoke.
When I try to quit, I soon find myself trying to rationalise how it would really be quite a good idea to go get a pack. I've thought something similar to what you wrote too, like, 'I actually quite enjoyed quitting, maybe I should start smoking again, just for a little while, so I can do it again!' It's really stupid but when you think about it maybe 20 times a day, you only have to cave in once...
