I had a similar experience. I was fascinated by smoking (being around it constantly in the early '70s) and began playing with my mom's unlit by the time I was 7. The unlit menthols smelled and tasted...

Since I've always been a closet smoker, there haven't been a whole lot of instances where anyone else was even around. However, on a few occasions where I 'came out', people (who had known me for...

I kept my smoking secret and was limited to the cigarettes I could liberate from my mother or visitors (usually aunts). It wasn't until a few years after my first inhale that I found an independent...

Like Rita, I inhaled from the first hit and without drama. Because my first two cigarettes were Newports, I did get pretty lightheaded after my first 5 or 6 inhales and put it out. No coughing but I...

My first two cigarettes were Newports (fully inhaled) that I found in an otherwise-empty pack left by some houseguests. That was in July of 1980. For a few years after that, I was relegated to what I...
