Dear G-Dragon, Before I answer your question, I just want to let you know how brave you are for reaching me for help. Most teenagers in your situation would not have written to me for advice. Now onto your problem. When your friends talked you into smoking a cigarette with them, they were peer pressuring you. This happens to a lot of teenagers and even grown-ups. Friends try to influence our decision all the time. It can sometimes be positive. However, your friends’ influence in this case was negative because they pressured you into underage smoking which is dangerous. Don’t beat yourself up because you gave in. Peer pressure can even affect the strongest-willed person. Next time, when your friends ask you to smoke again, just hold your ground and say no. If they keep pressuring you, you should walk away and find a new group of friends, the one who can respect your decisions and help you become a better person. Dr. Grace
