When you lit that first cigarette....

When you lit that first cigarette were you really deciding that you'd be a smoker for the rest of your life? Did you think that you'd still be smoking all these years later? If you had known that first cigarette would put you in this situation, would you have smoked it?

The vast majority of smokers have their first cigarettes as children. Under pressure from peers, they want to be one of the cool kids. The first few cigarettes are absolutely disgusting and this is what springs the trap: the young smoker just cannot accept that they could get addicted to something so disgusting that doesn't even get them high. It's this lack of a high that springs the trap. If the cigarette got us high like crack or crystal meth, we would be far more wary. The lack of a high prevents the young smoker from seeing smoking for the drug addiction it is, and so we continue to smoke, secure in the knowledge that we could not get into trouble with a drug that doesn't even get us high. The first time most people realize they have a problem is the first time they try to quit and realize they can't.
