    Not on Hells Kitchen I've never seen anyone smoke :)
    But on a lot of programs (BB, I'm a celebrity, smoking is something a lot of the contestants do)
    Thats half due to the boredom on BB

    TIME FOR REAL AGE ANNOUNCEMENT:

    I started at 13, young, as a lot of kids do. It was pleasurable and helped me calm down (probably brain thoughts) and I decided to continue. The worry of getting caught soon disappeared, and I smoked without thought. Then, earlier this year, I had many attempts to quit, I always gave in, and this is when I realised I was addicted. I'm 14, 15 in the next couple of weeks.
    I've still got plenty of life infront of me, and dying seems a long way away, but we all know that smoking can kill young.

    My lesson would be Don't Start

    I feel better for getting that off my chest!

    Good luck to everyone,
    Anyone else my age come join us on here for quitting support, it's not just for adults.

    Adz :)

    I started around that age too (maybe even earlier :eek: :eek: ). I thought yeah yeah I can quit if I want to, I just don't want to at the moment. It took me over 25 years!!!!! :o:o

    Thought for the day : You know those poster ads they had a while back where they told you of some of the stuff that cigs contained..... they had to pull the one that said 'Polonium 210' after that Russian got bumped off. YES - Polonium 210 is in your fags :eek: :eek: :eek: .

    I think they should have run those ads, it may have had an impact.....
