yeah I started at 15 smoked till now. I'm 26. That makes 11 yrs too.

Gotcha both beat.... started at 14, so 12 yrs now

ive just joined here cus got so stoned last night i missed work today and overslept, ive only been at this job for a month or so and really care about it, was lucky to get it ion the first place! have no one to turn to for this problem, need help.ive only been smoking for 3 years and im 21 now. not long but due to events in my life it has hit me hard.

well iam not proud of this but i started when i was 14,so that would make 28 years.it gotten now where my buzz will only last about 15min.i dont drink or do any other drug.but i have to kick this weeed habit.i have wasted enough on it.pilch you better get a hold of your self and and dont screw your self.it only gets worse when you get older.

I started at age 13 and am 46 now. I have been a daily smoker for a long time. I am an artist like many on this forum and have always liked smoke. I am quiting because my wife is fed up and I fear that is the wrong way but I have no choise anymore. I need all the luck with this because I don't really want to quit but here I am again doing it. Quitting for the wrong reason

started at 17 and now i'm 24. i have always told myself i'll quit before i'm 25. .. running out of time!

yeah Wh I remember telling myself that and/or I'll smoke forever.

I started when I was 12... so a little over 6 years..

my partner started at 14 and he's 36 now. do the maths........ scarey!

i started at 13. i'm 14 now. nothing special. i haven't smoked for 18 weeks. buying again. good and bad.

Thanks for sharing! Find it interesting how many started so young and continued. Like there hasn't been enough time to quit.

i started when i was 10.. so 7 yrs

I started when I was 16,.. that makes 5 years all togeather. The past two have been the worst because I reached dependance status... It is all well and good when you smoke on the weekends, at parties and to have a good time- but once you need to smoke before work, school, and basically any other activity it becomes a problem.
I originally became dependant on weed, because i needed an emotional barrier when i was in a very bad relationship situation about 3 years ago..my boyfiend was a loser, who was sucking all of my time and energy- and he himself wasn't helping him self...before i could hear what he would say to me i would smoke first

I was 18 when I started, that was 16 years ago. I smoke daily when I have it, so my plan now is to just not have it. It's well past time to be DONE.
