Think back to when you started smoking. Can you remember any point at which you said "I want to be addicted to smoking?" Take a look at how you become addicted to smoking by reading on!
You probably started smoking like most people do: a couple of friends are out with you and offer you a cigarette. As the story goes, you hacked and coughed and felt awful.
Yet you kept doing it. Why? Because society has convinced you that there is some unseen benefit to smoking. You always see the person whose life has completely gone to hell, just barely hanging on because he has his cigarettes. There's also the guy who is perfectly happy so long as he has his smokes. The list goes on, but you get the idea.
Either way, you keep it up because, despite how much your body is telling you "hey buddy, this stuff is no good!" you believe that you need to be able to smoke, either for one of those benefits or just to feel cool around your friends.
Over time, you start to believe that cigarettes actually ARE affecting you, both directly and positively. So you keep smoking, draining your bank account and drastically cutting your lifespan. Don't kick yourself over it, though, because that's exactly what cigarettes are designed to do, and how they're designed to work!
While picking up a cigarette addiction is easy, quitting can be quite a bit harder. It doesn't have to be, though, you just have to know how.
