I have JUST started smoking and need some honest opinions and help!?

I just started smoking and I am going to smoke ONE cigarette a week, possibly two a week... but rarely


will this hurt me??

also I am on the pill... how will that effect that?

Every single cigarette will harm you no matter how often you have one.

If youre only smoking one or 2 a week, youre not a smoker.
I dont smoke, my brother does. He smoked 8 or 9 a day, and hes cutting back, trying to quit.
Its bad for you, and it will reduce the efficieny of the pill. But if you want to smoke and be on the pill, use another form of protection.
Its obviously bad for you, and bad for everyone else around you.

why would you start smoking in the first place? yes they've done studies that even small amounts of smoking can be harmful. once you're addicted it won't be one or two smokes a week. honestly this sounds like a real waste of time. just quit before you get addicted. being on the pill and smoking has an increased instance for blood clots and strokes but if you're young the chances are lower. but seriously, smoking isn't something that you just do once or twice a week, and deciding to start is never a good idea.

why did you choose to smoke one/two cigs a week? i mean.. it's not really the most flattering of habits and hell.. i've been working on quitting since jan and have yet to fully kick the habit.

also smoking while on the pill is bad for your heart. i mean.. lots of things are bad for your heart so no it's not going to make you drop dead this second... but smoking in general is pretty bad for you. you know that tho. so do i... for some reason i guess we both still choose to do it. addictions are weird little things...

what the heck is wrong with you? smoking is killing people all over the world! you should stop right now. ciggs are next to like getting shot. my mom used to smoke until i made her stop i used to cry because every ciggerette she smoked she lost a day of her life. you should stop like now.

Take it from a smoker: If you only need one or two cigarette's per week, then you are NOT a smoker. Smoking obviously DOES hurt you. Do not smoke AT ALL when you are on the pill. Why did you pick up a cigarette in the first place? For fun? Knock it off!

Smoking can hurt you if you only smoke one a year. If you start only smoking one or two a week then it is addicting and you will say one more won't hurt until you are smoking a pack a day. Be smart. Don't smoke! Save your money for gas.

why on earth would you want to do that?? cigarette smoke is disgusting! it makes you stink all over, especially your breath!

soon, you'll be smoking more and more, and before you know it, you'll have a full addiction on your hands

YES WILL HURT YOU NO MATTER WHAT!!!!!!!!! STOP WHILE YOU ARE AHEAD! REALLY DO NOT TAKE THIS LIGHTLY!

i would stop, you arnt addicted....Yet
