Why cant i stop smoking? -

my mom thinks ive been sober now for about a year,but truth be told,i was only sober for about 4 months.i was smoking cigarettes and weed,i do both regularly now,and i feel horrible lying about it when shed gotten me all this treatment,i was doing other things before to like shrooms and ecstasy
but i havent started doing those,but im frightented i might pick up on that again as well.im only 16.if u have been through this before id love to hear our advice or opinions.Are you still hanging out with the same friends you did four months ago?

Smoking is a social activity. Quit the smoker friends and you won-t be as tempted. Branch out. Surely you have at least one pal who is sober, and doesn-t smoke anything. Call them up, make friends in their circle.

It-s the only thing that worked for me.Because the NICOTINE in the cigarettes ,cigars ETC is very,highly addictive. Girl friend you had better get off of all of that dope you have been using,or you will die a pre mature death. It is called DOPE for a reason. If you die from using it how will your loved ones feel.Tell her you need an in patient program and go from there. Admitting to her you have a problem and want and need help, she will be forgiving of you because then she will truly know you are seriously sorry for lying to her.-cus you-re addicted?She-s addicted to what the pack of smokes didif you want to change your life, you need to stop hanging out with the people that do that including the other drugs...you also have to WANT to stop -- i used to smoke weed ALL the time for 5 years or so and i also smoked cigarettes (3 packs a day -- for 6 years) and i never thought i was gonna stop, its honestly a mental thing -- i stopped smoking both cold turkey - one day i stopped smoking weed and within a month i smoked one last cigarette and i was done...and i havent done either in about a year and a half. yes cigarettes have a physical addiction but that is only for 3 days and once your past that - it is all mental. but if you do need help you could use a patch, the gum, etc.

my fiance also smokes cigarettes and weed and has tried several other drugs...nothing like crack, heroine, or meth though...but he was court ordered when he was younger to go to rehab and it did nothing for him...he said to tell you - you have to change the friends, the scene, and have to want to stop.

you are also a teenager so yes, you will rebel - its natural but if you want to stop you will =] and the sooner you stop the better off you are.

good luck!
