Yes. No amount of smoking is safe. That once a month will turn into once a week, then once a week will turn into once a day, and once a day will turn into once every ten minutes. Smoking is not something that you can play around with and expect it to just be a once in a while thing.
Even smoking weed isn't safe. Smoke in any form is harmful and it does not matter how often you do it. Vape instead if you need to smoke something. It's way healthier and not as taxing on your lungs. I vape cannabis and it's way healthier than smoking it!

Once a month?! When I was 14, I was smoking like a chimney, lol. Honestly, I don't think once a month is terrible, considering what I did at that age. But seriously, I would just recommend quitting and not even getting involved with smoking. It's so addicting and bad for you. Stop while you can.

I started smoking at 12 and I’m 73 now, I have three dogs, and still smoke a pack a day. I’m a runner through. You will have to run every time you smoke a cigarette so your lungs can make up for the trauma. Get a dog to run with, it helps and makes you feel good inside. You sound like a nice kid. Shelter dogs are best. I can find you a local shelter if you’d like

Your body has not finished growing, maturing, becoming who you will become. It is worse at your age than for an older adult. The damage you do while you are young will last the rest of your life, and may inhibit, or restrict your ability to perform well as you get older. Please stop, and think. You are wrecking your life, before it really gets started.
Yes, even once every year can be harmful - tobacco, tea, weed, any substance, or chemical can impair your future abilities, especially as your body is still growing.

I always say that even a single cigarette opposes a health risk. You might think you're controlling the situation, but you might just fall into addiction.
What's even more worrying, at least from my perspective, is your age. Who gave you those cigarettes?

It's still bad. Why do you do it?
I know many "party" smokers who turned into full time smokers after some years and once you're hooked, it's incredibly difficult to stop. And they were exactly like you, they only smoked very rarely and insisted they weren't addicted, which I don't believe they were either, but one cigarette apparently tends to take another, and before you know it....
And of course, apart from the health issues, smokers also generally look older and while it won't show now when you're just 14 years old, it will show later.
So stop for your own sake. Stay healthy and pretty. :)

Yes. Very. Don’t smoke at all. You’re going down a bad road, and you will get addicted eventually.
