Of course smoking is very bad for you but if i smoke 12 a day is that too much/ a lot for a smoker? Just wanted to compare myself to how many other smokers smoke...
1 a day is 1 too many Alej. Why not have a go at reducing it day by day, maybe to the point where you get down to 1 a day, then have a go at stopping?
I used to smoke 30 a day (12 years ago)and just gave up, so it can be done.
i dont want to stop at the moment, I was just wondering if i was regarded as a heavy smoker. I can and have just stopped, as you have done but at the moment it suits me to smoke. Thanks for the advice anyway though
Even one a day can cause enough damage to the lungs to cause chronic breathing conditions or worse case, cancer. I have worked with many patients with obstructive airway disease and lung cancer and they say the scarriest thing is not being able to get enough air through. It is your decision to make when you quit, and there is help out there when you decide to do it.
Good luck.
