So I'm 17 and I like to smoke cigarettes, but only for the calming effect. I hate the way they make me feel, I don't like tobacco, but I do like nicotine. I'm not addicted, I never crave it, it's nice in the mornings though. No one seems to understand that you can like something and not be addicted. Yes, cigarettes are addicting, but I'm not addicted. It's kind of like coffee, it's a pick me up. Just makes my mornings nice. It's disgusting if I do it more than once a day though I can't stand tobacco. Any thoughts? People like to tell me I'm denying that I'm "addicted," because I think I know my body better than my friends lol.
