- NEW!

On impulse when I was sixteen, I bought a ten pack of Malboro Lights. I smoked them within a few hours. A coupe of days later I bought another pack and smoked them all within a few hours again. I kept doing this and I started spreading them out during the day. In the end, I was probably smoking 8-10 a day, every day.
I found it very difficult even from that very first pack to stop smoking them. Psychologically, it became less of a habit and more of an addiction. I HAD to have some. There was no justification, I just HAD to have a smoke.
I gave up a year later when I got a girlfriend who hated smoking and slipped the odd one in occasionally for old time's sake, but haven't had one since my 18th birthday. I'm now 19 and still get cravings.
As with everyone else's answer, I believe it differs from person to person. It has nothing to do with body size or health. Perhaps sex, but the older you get, the differences between sex close in and there are little/no differences.
