Agreed. I would call myself an addict since I would actually have one when I need one (like let's say at work). Then again I only have about 4 a day and sometimes I skip a day without smoking. So then again, it's not like I need it everyday and constantly, but then I'm also not a casual smoker since its almost 3 or 4. Then I'm an addict and not one? I have always thought if I'm an addict or not, and pondering on this for myself was pretty much useless because there is just so many "degrees" and "factors" affecting the label of addict yet the result for me shows that I'm a smoker, but not that frequent, yet not that needy, and I don't smoke as much in a day.
Everyone has a different definition of addiction. For me, I would label addiction as smoking half a pack a day. That's a red flag for addiction for me.
