I mean I have smoked cigerettes if you count one week during Freshmen year of college, but in my entire life I've smoked less then a pack of cigerettes. Never a big fan of them, ocassionally I'm one of those drunk/social smokers of cigerettes, but thats rare (once or twice a year). Hookah on the other hand I love, though tend to only smoke once a week or less, I'm sure now that I'm graduatind (6 more days!) I'll have more time to indulge in hookah.

I smoked cigarettes from when I was 12 until 22. My parents let me from 14 or 15 on. Smoked 2 packs a day when I quit. Hardest thing I ever did. Quit drinking beer at the same time because everytime I drank I lost all willpower. Started drinking again 18 years later, stayed away from cigs. I smoke a good cigar every now and then. A lot of my friends that travel hook me up with cubans on a regular basis. Still did not desire a cigarette.
Started going to hookah bars in May. Bought several hookahs and smoke regularly. Never "jonesin" but love to smoke. I NEVER get an urge to smoke a cigarette.

So from my background I would think that it should be a good indicator. Don't pick up cigarettes and you will not get addicted to cigarettes.

Yeah I have no desire to smoke ciggs. Tried them, didn't like them. So I don't think I would ever start, but I'm just worried I might if I have too much hookah. How many hookah sessions a week do you think is reasonable?


That will vary widely on the forum, I think its a personal choice.

yes i smoke cigarettes as well (about 5 a day). i know it`s not good for my health obviously, but then again neither is smoking hookah. as soon as i notice i`m having trouble breathing, or my physical condition goes down the drain i`ll quit, but for now i enjoy smoking cigarettes.

Quit 5 days ago.... smoked for 13 years.

Last time I tried to quit was 3 years ago, went 2 years without a cig until my honeymoon and it all went downhill from there.

Wish me luck!

Good luck, PK!

To answer the question, yes, I smoke cigarettes a little too frequently (around 3/4 of a pack a day). I know, I know, I seriously need to cut back. I don't know why, cigarettes taste and smoke a lot worse than hookah, I guess I'm a nicotine fiend. Maybe if I switch to Tangiers it'll help me cut back. Hmm... I dunno...

Personal Experience:
I smoked back when I was around 13-14, stopped at 15 and was smoke-free until I reached college, my two roommates were into hookah, I got into it, this year I didn't live with them, my body seriously missed the nicotine and I started smoking again. 2-3 American Spirits a day usually, although i haven't smoked in weeks. So personally, hookah definately caused me to relapse into smoking cigs. But hey, I don't regret it.

I detest the taste of cigarettes.

When I was smoking i would plough through 30-40 a day and would have to chew gum as the taste
would make me want to hurl.

However hookah is a totally different ball game... And I love the taste smile.gif
