Answers:
Just ask a question concerning cigarettes and you get so many different answers it has to be confusing. I will get to the point. I am 60 years old. I have smoked since I was 14 years old. I loved smoking, I enjoyed every drag off my cigarette. I smoked at least a pack a day. I said I would never quit, I enjoyed it too much. The last year has been a living nightmare for me. I have always been very active and busy. I have quit smoking now and here is what made me do it and I don't crave them any longer. I am on oxygen 24 hours per day. I take breathing treatments 4-5 times per day. I am on pills and more pills. I cannot breathe without the oxygen. I have severe anxiety and depression.
I had to go on long term disability because I cannot do my job. I cannot work in my garden. I cannot go for a walk. If I overdo I end up in bed for a day or back in the hospital.
This will not affect you until it happens to you. My daughter smokes and she can't quit. It is a very powerful drug. But, HONESTLY IF I HAD KNOWN WHAT MY LIFE WOULD BE, I WOULD HAVE QUIT. I never even think of a cigarette now, I am too busy trying to breathe.....................
If you get a reply that really works, please lemme know, because I have tried it all, and I honestly think that the only way you can really quit is if you truly want too. The only times I have quit fully, is when I was pregnant with my children, I did not cheat once until after the birth, then like an idiot I went right back to it. I curse the day I ever started, cigs are the devil! Good Luck!
