Needing help to quit
tailspin37
Sunday, October 18, 2009 at 08:21 PMHello There:
I am just a little bit over two weeks smoke free, after smoking for
59 years. I had been smoke free for 2 years awhile back, but I started
to smoke again full time. It was the dumbest thing for me to do.
Believe me when I say, that quitting smoking is worth all the effort
you can muster. Your very life depends on it. You see, fifteen or
so years ago, I was diagnosed with Emphysema and Chronic
Bronchitis. I really did not feel any symptoms, except a cold or
dry weather cough. I quit for two years. At that time, I was a quite
heavy drinker ( Quit all alcohol 15 years ago ), so alcohol and
Major Depression led me back to the cigarettes. I have been trying
to quit since then. Using this site, and getting a support group
convinced me that if I did not quit NOW, I would have to use O2,
or worse, die within a few years. I, after much soul searching decided
it was my time to quit. It is worth any sacrifice you have to make.
Personally, I prefer to use NRT to ease the withdrawal symptoms.
Life is precious, you are precious! You are the only one of you that
there will ever be. Honor yourself, and take care of yourself. You are
not replaceable. We need you! So if there is anything I can do or say
to help you along, do not hesitate to conact me. We can do this together.
Take care of yourself, I am rooting for you,
John

it's always worth to quit, never too late,always the right time. even if you've damaged your health already stopping now increases your chances. i swear i never thought i'd quit. i used to joke that they'd pull the marlboro from my cold dead hand. then i found out that dead could happen quite reasonably before 45! so it's been a year and so much easier than you can believe. go hour by hour day by day and next thing you know......... i did use chantix for 5 months,if it is an option for you, check it out. you CAN do it!!!
