How old were you when you first started to smoke?

i first start smoking when i was thirteen then. i wish that i can quit easily. but i must stop smoking by the time i get married. i don;t want to smoke in front of my children later on.

7th grade, so around 12 years old. I quit by the time I started high school (9th grade). Glad I did.

I was actually 8 years old when I started smoking. I am current trying to quit but I have tried several times and never happens.

I was probably about 14. I have quit and started back several times. I guess I will be addicted to them until the day I die...

I started smoking when I was 16. I was always strongly against it, and thought it was a really dirty habit. Well I still think that but now I have been smoking for about 4 years. I started when I moved to England from America. Everybody there seemed to smoke, I was working one day and someone offered me one, and for some reason I said yes. Well I have been smoking ever since. I hope to quit eventually, although I have tried before and it was really hard. If I do not quit beforehand I would definitely quit before I had a child or the second I found out I was pregnant. Maybe I will get pregnant just so I will be forced to quit. Haha.

i was 12 when i started smoking, the group of kids i was hanging out with was my influence, i thought i was cool. i am 22 now and still smoking i would like to quit smoking but so far i have not found the will power to. one day i would really like to quit.

I was 14 years old and I started because in these days it was considered glamorous and cool. Now 45 years later I still smoke and see no reason to quit as I have normal breathing and clear lungs. I did quit for a year but started again. I get checked every 6 months. My doctor thinks I do not have the gene which causes smoke related diseases.

i can not remember when i first start to smoke,maybe 26 years old.when i have start to work after finish school.when i meet the trouble in my job.i have learn to start smoke.that can let me forget the trouble.......i know smoking is not good habit and bad for health.but refrain smoking is not so easy.but i will try my best to rafrain from smoking.........happy mylotting and have a nice day.

I was 15 years old. I hung out with my boyfriend at that time and his friends. They were all bad influences. Not only did I start smoking, I also started drinking, smoking mary jane and cutting class. My parents smoke too. When they found out that I was smoking in high school, they told me not to hide it from them so I didn't. I don't blame them for me getting addicted, but I think I would've gotten sick of hiding it and eventually gave up. I am now married to a wonderful man. He wants me to quit smoking, but would never force me to do it. I want to quit some day, but I have to be mentally ready for it. I'm afraid that I'm not there yet.

I think if I'm not mistaken the first time i tried to smoke was when i was 13 years old, we were just trying it to for fun together with my cousin and the second I've tried smoking again was when I was in college i think I'm already 19 then it lasted for two one and a half years mainly due to peer pressure. I've only smoked because my friends are doing it most of the time when we do meet up. But after we graduated in college and move on separate ways I eventually quit it, I didn't have any hard time quitting because smoking is not really my thing, I have other vices though, I drink on occasional basis, but i just can't go on with smoking. ^-^
