I Quit Smoking

Today is my first smoke free day in years. I decided that it is time to quit. The morning did not start off the greatest, because I awoke to the smell of cigarette smoke, which didn't help. My husband lit up in our bedroom right next to...

I stopped over 20 years ago. I wish I had never started, but both my parents smoked so it was inevitable. Today I cannot understand why younger people smoke, given that we know so much about the harmful affects.

I started smoking when I was 13 years old. Cigarettes were on 65 cents a pack. Big mistake, I continued to smoke more and more. When I was 28 years old I tried to quit and even lost $200 in one bet, $100 in another and even lied on one...

So here it goes.

I have to admit this is a LOT easier than I thought it would be. Now it's almost like I can't even remember my life as a smoker. I still get cravings but maybe 1 a day that lasts for 5-10 minutes and usually when it happens I get up and...

It's been over 6 months and I'm feeling very strong about it. I've smoked since I was about 16. I'm 26. I've quit a few times, actually. Once for over two years. I guess you could say I was an on and off smoker, sometimes smoking...

35 years I was chained to cigarretes, finally I let go. The smells I didn't know that humans could smell so bad. I got in the elevator the other day with an overweight person I almost vomited, I did't breath for a while and finally I...

I've quit smoking many times. It's just like the old joke. But I've quit again recently, a little over a week ago. The withdrawal is hitting me bad. I'm coughing up the black stuff and my nose is all stuffed up. I think it's ironic...

After smoking for 25 of my 42 years of age. I now know what things smell like. And I'm not all together sure that is a good thing! Being a smoker, I knew I couldn't really smell cigarettes, but I thought everything else was basically...

It's disgusting. I started smoking when I was about the same size as a cigarette. I was eight years old, and the kid down the road convinced me to smoke a cigarette that he had stolen from his dad. I didn't have a coughing fit or get...

Yes, that was a long time ago. I liked Marlboro reds. Smoked two packs a day.
Unfortunately, my quitting had little to do with health concerns, but with what I could see me doing with the money I was spending on them. At the time, I...
