Ok, as a kid, my parents both smoked about a pack a day IN THE HOUSE. Gross and inconsiderate, I know. I got to thinking, I was exposed to TONS of both filtered and unfiltered smoke, and yet, I have NEVER ever smoked a cigarette. Why didnt I get addicted to cigarette smoke? I was exposed to the filtered stuff they blew out AND the unfiltered smoke from the buring cigarette? If cigarettes are so addictive, why arent i hooked on them?
By the way, I am no longer around smokers at all. I’m a married mom, and we dont smoke and few of our friends smoke, and never around us. So I know I dont crave the smoke, cuz I’ve been fine without it for years. If I do get a whiff, my mind associates the smell with my childhood, nothing more
Is it possible that not just the chemicals in cigarettes are addictive, but also the ACT of smoking?

Can you become addicted to nicotine from second hand smoke?
My whole family smokes and i have been around second hand smoke like my whole life. I am now in college and for the first few weeks i had bad headaches and i was real jittery. When i go home i feel fine and relaxed but when i come back to college i the headaches and the jittery feelings come back for a few days. Am i addicted to nicotine from second hand smoke or is it just all in my head for some reason. If you have sites to back up your answers that would be great. And if you have any advice on what i should do, please share! Thanks
