What Causes Vomiting Sensation While Smoking?

I have been smoking since my 12th grade. I am 26 years old Male. When I smoke I feel like throwing up. Like just the feeling and the reflex when you feel like vomiting. This has been happening to me for about six years now. Please give me your suggestions.
