No, it's just that you aren't used to smoking. The lightheadedness is normal, no need to panic :)

yep. perforated filters. The tobaccy is the same, and the health risks are the same. So if you're gonna smoke a light, do yourself a favour and rip off the filter.

edit. Are you saying you don't enjoy the buzz you get when you haven't had a smoke fpr awhile? Man, I love that. Sometimes I don't have a smoke for a couple days just for that little high. :eek:
