At the end of the day, who are we to preach to you about the health risks in relation to smoking? You know fine well yourself how bad smoking is for you, and how unattractive and unappealing it is towards other people. Therefore, if you wish to have that repulsive nature due to cigarettes - whilst living with the constant risk and fear of getting caught - then by all means go ahead and continue smoking.
However, if you've realised yourself now that smoking isn't what it's cracked up to be, and you want out of it before the mess gets a whole lot worse... then the simple answer is to give up.
As you have only recently started smoking, giving up now is the best time for you to do so. You've experienced something many teenagers naturally do, but put it down to an experience and move on from it now.
Honestly - what benefits are you getting out of it..? Ask yourself that. You not only have a repulsive odour and gradually a repelling look in regard to smoking, but you are having to put up with this constant fear of being found out off your parents/teachers. Therefore, is it really worth all that stress and hassle - just because some other idiots want to do it?
I understand you are still at school and peer pressure does take a big part in teenage life. However, you need to rise above this and say no. If these so called friends of yours think your un-cool because you don't smoke - then quite clearly they arn't friends at all and you can find other people who appreciate you for who you are, not for some stereotypcial macho, chav who they think is cool.
Dude, they may be a big part in your life now - but by letting them influencing your life by making you smoke etc. it can have a terrible effect in your later life. When you mature and grow up a bit you probably will end up losing contact with these people anyway, and over time part from them. Therefore, I ask, is it really worth putting your own mental stability as well as your personal health at risk just because of some silly friends?!
