Smoking is bad, i need some help!

Published

Hey everyone, ive had some problems recently with smoking. I felt very depressed for a while so I started to smoke cigarettes. One night, not long ago, I smoked two Marlboro Menthol 100's back to back within 10 mins and the next day, (and ever since) ive had the worst chest pains, and I find it very hard to breath at night. I wake up with horrible pain in my chest, and my breaths are very short. If I try to breath in deep, that also hurts. If anyone knew anything about this or what i could do to get rid of it, I would very much appreciate some advice! Thanks!

Sincerely,

Jake

I don't think you are smoking enough, try smoking 4 packs a day and see if that helps.

I don't think two sticks of cigarettes are enough to induce moderate to severe chest pain. There might be an underlying cause. See your doctor.
