smoking?

[NikosamA98]

Hey! Im 15 and i just started smoking...a friend at school showed me how to do it and then my cousin smoked one with me. I didnt like it the first time but now i like it and i just smoked 1 and half at my room (in the window). I noticed that everything smelled bad and i really dont have any other place to smoke than my room because i think people will judge me if i do it outdoors... I dont know if i should tell my mom i like smoking or something...my friends say i shouldnt smoke but i like it :/. I dont know...i want some advise please

I think it all depends on how you think your mum will take it and whether or not she will understand. If you think she'll understand, I don't see why you shouldn't tell her. I never told my mum I smoked, even though she also smokes and so does my brother, instead she just knew. If you're going to smoke in your room though, make sure it is extremely well ventilated and you blow smoke directly out of the window, not near the window as that doesn't work.

STOP SMOKING NOW.

The only thing you should ever consider smoking is (I'm not promoting or recommending, just giving me personal opinion for all you very impressionable teens :D )

1. Marijuana
2. DMT

Tobacco produces no high, no benefit to your health (obviously) AND outside of normal health issues, it causes calcification of your Pineal Gland which is perhaps the most important gland in the body.

Stop smoking there is 0 reason to do so, and any reason you can think of is because you have psyched yourself out due to a social pressure.

i usually smoke in our shared garden shed so my mum doesnt know its me that leaves the smell there or i do it ou the window

i havent told my mum but i think she may know about the cigs

[Jenny jr]

Just find a spot where you can smoke in peace. I wouldn't worry about what people think. Everyone makes it sound like smoking is such a bad thing but I don't at all. In the 50s everyone smoked and they lived in their 80s so no big deal.
So I think your fine, do what you want to do and have fun!

[Luminous]

It is your choice whether you smoke or not. I don't have any suggestions on places to smoke, but make sure where it is is legal. Or youcould get in a lot of trouble.

Here is at tip smoke in the bathroom with the fan on and tall then u are taking a shower or smoke with your friend

Now I'm 18 and its legal for me so I smoke in my car

[marrisa]

Me and my older sister smoke.My parents aren't happy about it but I guess they know the can't stop us.I smoke in her car when we are driving.

[Whatsgud]

I usually just smoke in the bathroom in my house but out the window. The bathroom is good because there aren't any fabrics where the smell can stick on to.

There's no use giving you the stop smoking rant, but a good way of combating the smell is air freshener, it's normally enough to take most of the edge off, but in all honesty, it's best not too, some brands also smell worse than others so it'll also depend what you smoke

[uglyinsideandout]

There's really no perfect way to hide the smell. The only way others won't know is if they smoke to but even that isn't 100%.

dmt?? that drug is dangerous...weed should be the only thing consumed

Well, let's steer away from actually "liking" it, and look at it from another point of view.

Smoking at 14-17 shows that you're going against everything that we learned earlier in health class at school.

Both of my parents smoke, and I can tell from experience that it's not good in the least bit, even if you "like" it.

My dad has emphysema, a disease caused by excessive smoking.
Symptoms include incessant coughing, shortness of breath (so it's hard to exercise and do work), and a barrel-shaped chest.

He's quitting bit by bit, and he has been getting better in the last 2-3 years.

Now another viewpoint:

Smoking (as you can tell already), leaves a bad odor afterwards, and it's VERY noticeable.
Not only does smoking make the place smell, but it also ruins white paint, turning it to a disgusting yellow.
Smoking also affects the teeth, causing yellowing and making you have to brush more.

I honestly think that smoking has more disadvantages than advantages.
Just saying that you "like" it doesn't mean that it's good for you.

Now then, onto the topic of telling your mom...

You should. Simply put, you should tell her that you're smoking and (specifically) that you don't know whether you should stop or not (unless we've all persuaded you otherwise). Open up to your mother about this. Some things to discuss are the following:

1. Why did you start smoking?

2. How do you feel when you smoke?

3. Do you feel the need to smoke because of something?

It will be great if she knows and she agrees. It would suck if her reaction would be to stop it.

No drug is dangerous.
If you put DMT (or even heroine) on a table, it won't kill you or try to rape / hit you.

If used wrong, DMT can be dangerous. Everything can be used wrong, so your argument is kinda invalid.
Problem with stuff like heroine is, it is almost impossible not to use it wrong = abuse it. DMT has great potential for gainful use.

Have fun pissing your health away :)

[LouBerry]

You know, I would say, it's your body, fuck it up as you desire, but that shit is harmful to the people around you too. My opinion, don't do it.

[roadwarrior]

For me, stop it.. it's gonna be very dangerous to your health....

[NikosamA98]

Well, I stopped doing it. I did it because I wanted to belong and since I'm the youngest one of my friends and my entire prom, I thought I had to do something to be "cooler" or something... I know it was not ok and I have better things to buy with my money like heroine, cocaine, guns, explosives, etc. Just kidding haha, I buy clothes and videogames, not cigarettes :B

[ospinal]

I think you can try to quit smoking, it is harmful to you body.

[ogsteez]

As long as its not cigs.

[justin 13]

Dude, just throw them away

[gaboflr]

I smoke everyday but when I started Ive had the same fear as you but eventually my parents noticed it and know I can smoke in front of them but it depends in how is your enviroment at home.

[Running420]

Why do americans act like smoking cigs is like a crime or something? smoke if you want to, not a big deal.. If you think its worth the money, and the risk of someone seeing you and the consequense, then go ahead..

[Jaster]

I say stop ASAP, all it does is bad...Straight Edge for life

[puffmylife]

It's your life and you can do whatever you want. Let them judge you but don't mind them. It's not like you're a smoker that you're already a bad guy.

[nenno]

Smoking is not a good for health but an addicted person can not leave smoking ,its very difficult to leave smoking.I am a smoker and its very difficult for me to quite smoking.
