    As an ex-smoker. I can tell you that I was brought up with a parent who smoked and was introduced to it by my older sister at age 12. It is very addictive, due to the nicotine present in the smoke. Once you start, it becomes harder and harder to stop.

    I finally quit after a heart attack, at age 57, which I was told was caused primarily by smoking.

    People smoke to reduce their tension:to forget their worries or to show their supremacy.

    The drug in cigarettes relaxes people.
