Im almost 14 years old. I am a good kid come from a rich family, live in a nice area go to a good school with a lot less smokers and drinkers. I get good grades, and am really mature. I know smoking is horrible. It ruins your life! I know the long term effects, short term effects and mental effects.
My problem is just that I dont know why I kind of just feel like exploring it, but I KNOW ITS REALLY WRONG and it can ruin my life.
I did some research about this, and I just think its how the teenage mind is lacking in development to make good desisions and stuff like that. Can someone else please explain to me why I am thinking this way?
I am almost 100% positive I will not do this, because even if I wanted to I would be to scared to. Both my parents dont smoke, they dont even drink, their vegetarians to! I am also becoming a vegetarian myself.
Anyway, Im just wondering? Why I was thinking this way? Was I just curious? or what? NO one is preasuring me or anything? IVE NEVER SMOKED!!!!!?????!!!!??? AFter thinking about it for a while, I just think its because as a teen who grow up and make stupid choices and think about doing stupid things, you also learn from other teens and stuff. and I think thats just whats going on with me. well,
if youre talking smoking weed
do it
i mean
might as well get the experience under your belt
as long as you know its a bad habit to get into you should be fine
if youre talking ciggarettes
dooonnnnttttt
they taste bad
with todays prices youll never have any money
and youll die younger
its like paying to have no pleasure and die younger
as to your question why you feel the urge to smoke
id have to say that it is a sub-conscious thing
like the media portrays "bad boys" as guys in leather jackets and the cigarette
in the back of every guys mind he has the want to be a "bad boy" even if most dont like to admit it
ive had the same urge
but i knew what was wrong with it
plus
i have asthma
but as long as you keep your head and know that smoking is overall a bad thing to do in succession then you should be good easy...your addicted to nicotine.....
your are rationalizing all the info about smoking and most likeky denying that you have an addiction....ask for help all alone by yourself you wont be able to quit smoking, like all addictions we need help.... Okay, stop worrying. I myself felt this way when I was your age. It's just a reaction to something you don't know anything about. It's nothing to be worried or ashamed about. I waited until I got to college, away from my parents, and I asked a friend if I could have a puff of theirs. I nearly choked and decided I didn't want to smoke anymore and that was that.
It's a perfectly normal reaction and nothing to be worried about. If you're that worried about your parents finding out, talk to them. Hopefully, they'll understand and respect the fact that you decided to talk with them and not hide it from them. Dont do it. Seriously. Ive been smoking since I was about 13. I wish I had never started smoking. Ive tried everything to quit, but it doesnt work. & if you play sports, it will slow you down alot. =/ |
