well it's the first day I'm GOING to quit smoking...I haven't been smoking for long, only a year and it was because of peer pressure (but no excuse, I could have easily said no)...

But I think it was because my dad always smoked around me, I became addicted, because eventhough I was a teenager, I was hoping to get a cigarette off him, but I never even had one!

The first real reason I had to quitting smoking happened on xmas. My brother and his kid were visiting and the kid( who is 7) saw the horrible picture on my cig pack. He asked about it, and we told him that this can happen when you smoke, that you may get sick children. My brother and his ex girlfriend aren't together anymore, but share the time they have with their kid. So, the kid got very angry at his mum because she was smoking while he was pregnant and he even started crying because of it!...I felt heartbroken, and I tried to quit for him...I quit for 4 days but then got so annoying by the world, my family etc...I started again...

It's been a few months since then, I even quit for 3 weeks before but then I started going to a local pub...I quit going there and drinking too much, so I want to quit cigarettes aswell...
