What are the symptoms of nicotine addiction?

Question by Jade: What are the symptoms of nicotine addiction?
Yes I know. Smoking’s bad for you.

My parents have always been smokers, and I think my mum even smoked when she was pregnant with me.

The last few weeks, I’ve been socially smoking, two or three every fortnight. But yesterday, I chain smoked, and I smoked about 10 cigarettes. Since then, I’ve been feeling sick and not wanting to eat, whenever I think of smoking I feel sick, but I feel like a really want one either way. I’ve started to feel stressed easier and slightly paranoid, but it seems to go away if I sit by my parents while they are smoking.

Am I addicted? :'(

Sorry, I wrote that wrong. I get hungry, then I eat, and then I feel sick, so I stop eating.
I’m 15, very nearly 16 :\

Answer by teapot
you wouldn’t get addicted that quickly and i’m guessing your quite young?
the symptoms though would be being irritable, snapping at people, unable to concentrate and just basically really needing a smoke!

I smoke and have cut back massively over the years, i’m only 28 – don’t start
