Hi Firefly.........we can help support and encourage you, we can reach out a hand.....but you have to promise to do something in return.
Don't smoke. It's really simple....when the desire to not smoke outweighs the desire to light up....then you will succeed. Hopefully this will be before one of the life threatening diseases gets you.
