Smoking assignment

Hello! I'm doing an interview assignment on smoking for health class, and I was wondering if any current or past smokers could answer any of the questions below. Anything used will be anonymous so no need to worry about that! Thank you :))

1. What age did you start smoking?

2. Why did you start smoking?

3. Have you tried to quit smoking for any period of time? How hard was it to quit?

4. When you haven’t had a cigarette, how do you feel? Emotions, reactions?

5. If someone handed you $19,843.20 what would you do with it? The average cost of a pack of cigarettes in PA is $9.54. If you smoke 2 packs a week for a full year do you know the yearly cost for your habit? $992.16. If you smoke for 20 years you will spend about $19,843.20 on cigarettes. How do you feel about that?

1. 21
2. Because my fiance said I wasn't allowed to. I broke up with him and married cigarettes.
3. I tried numerous times to quit but only managed while I was pregnant. Started right back up after my daughter's birth. I changed to vaping and quit cigarettes. Every few months I lower the nicotine content. Even with the potential harm from vaping I feel immensely better.
4. Intense anxiety. Lost.
5. I know - but then I wouldn't have had it all at once and $10 dollarses just waft away.
