Lately i've been having really intense cravings for cigarettes but you see i've never smoked. Practically everyone in my family smokes though so i'm always breathing it in ever since i was little. I mean what should i do i mean i've never smoked so its not like i can go on the patch for something i haven't done. I mean is it even possible for me to have these intense cravings for something i haven't done? Or is it just my mind playing tricks on me or something?
Please help cause i think any day now i'm gonna cave and just light one. (link)

One can become addicted to second hand smoke because smoke is what contains the nicotine. This can especially be true if someone in your family smokes something OTHER than lights. The high doses of nicotine in the air that you would inhale can cause you to want to crave a cigarette to fulfill that feeling.
I'd reccomend not going outside to chat with your family too often because that could eventually lead to you wanting a cigarette just to try it or getting addicted to second hand smoke which would lead to cigarettes anyway.
Unfortunately, you live in the situation, so not much can be done about it. All I'd recommend is don't start cigarettes if you can't deal with the fact you'll be having problems quitting years ahead.
