I've been smoking on a daily basis for almost a year now. For about 4-5 months I was at about a pack a day. I can not smoke one for a day or two and be fine with it, but its such a habit at this point I always find myself buying a new pack. The longest I've gone without smoking is about 3 days in the course of the last year. However, I still don't think I'm physically addicted to it.

Idk. It's not hard to quit smoking if it's difficult for you to fuel the habit. It becomes difficult when all you have to do is walk into the gas station and grap a pack with your slurpee. If i'm at home I just deal with the nic fits and wait until my parents leave. Then the cigarette is GLORIOUS, but it's not like I was writhing on the floor all day craving.

I normally smoke betwen 1 and 8 a day, have done for just over a year. I'm still not addicted. I spent 2 weeks without smoking just to prove I could and didn't get a single craving.

I started smoking when I was 14.
I quit without much trouble when I was 15 1/2
started again at 16 and a half
I wouldn;t say iu was really addicted until 18 or so.
even still, I've quit for months at a time without super cravings. I'm a pretty light smoker at the moment, although I go through pack a day periods, I'm at like 5 a day right now.

Smoking is also habitual. If you are removed from associations of smoking you'll find it easier to kick it.

I believe that I was actually addicted to smoking after around a month of smoking everyday.  Now I wish that I hadn't even started smoking because quitting is ALOT harder than starting.

Sounds like it was more of a psychological addiction.

Nicotine is the content which is responsible for the addiction of smoking as it is habit forming. Smoking of any kind is not good for health. Chantix is one of those medicines which help in getting over smoking habit, but this medicine has some side effects as well. Person using chantix mainly encounter sleeplessness, change of taste and headache. So people should consult there physician before going for this medicine.
