Hi my name is Christina. I am 21. I started smoking when I was 5. My dad thought it was so cute. He taught me to smoke and gave me 5 cigs a day starting on my 5th birthday. I never knew it was a bad thing until I was much older. By then it was too late. Even when I was in foster care all the kids smoked. I didn't know that they didn't start smoking around the same time my dad said all kids my age did it. Anyway I have a lot of medical problems now and my doctor wanted me to quit. ( He thinks I did) I was in the hospital for 45 days and when I got out I said I wasn't going to start back. Unfortunately I don't have the best of a best friend. I started again. The only person that knows is my brother but I have to quit. I saw this site on the tele and I thought it would be a great way to build a support system. I am really going to need help because I can't do this myself. Thanks
