I started to smoke when I turned 4 years old. My sisters and I and my sister's boyfriend used to live out in colorado and we went out in the fields with long weeds. my sister's have always stolen my mothers ciggerates and we always passed them around when we were in the long weeds.
I stopped smoking at the age of 13. The reason I stopped was because I have lived in a group home. I worked for the forestry of a sort. I have worked a lot and I worked so much in so doing getting all of the nicatine that was in my body out. Though I still have urges and I have been around my family that smoke too much I still have not gave into that urge.
My family agree with my decision and try to keep me from tobacco and I have stayed away from tobacco my self.
I have a lot of people that are supporting my decision and want me to succeed.
Try and get all the nicatine out of your system and work to stay away from ciggerates and cigars.
