I started, like everyone else did.. and I was VERY good at smoking :P But for me.. it didn't make sense... all that money for, what seemed like something I didn't need and could use the money better...So for me, while I am not real money orientated, it just seemed like a waste of money... Nothing more than that really... I didn't want to be tied to having to buy them.. and they are now very very very expensive..
Apparently he cost of a packet of cigs in the UK will be around £8.82 for 20 here.. sooo that would mean around £88 a month so it's around about the same price here..
My dad let me try a cigarette when I was 6, but that didn't work out too well so I never really got into it. I puff cigars occasionally, but that's not something I do often because I get sick if I puff a little too much.
I know I have an addictive personality so I know that I can get addicted to things easily. I chose Mountain Dew and video games instead of smoking. Plus, I hate the smell!

I just read the other day that research is showing that nicotine may help people with psychosis/schizophrenia. Good article.
"Smoking is notoriously bad for one's health. Tobacco use can lead to disability, disease, and even death, but new research suggests that nicotine may have some benefits for patients living with schizophrenia."
