Searching for reasons.... excuses?


17 years ago 0 100 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Hi Danielle ~ YES! I am soooooo happy that I quit smoking! I can breathe, I can smell, I can sing, I can talk.... all much better than I did before when I was a smoker! Do I occasionally wish I could smoke.... yes... but I know that I can't or I would be pulled right back into that nasty addiction again! Life is much better as an ex-smoker than it was as a smoker.... no more searching for the smokes in your pockets, no more smelling like burnt tobacco, no more yellow teeth or receeding gums, no more smelly hair... you get the point, right?

Hi Leslie, You've certainly got quite a bit of time under your belt! My goodness time flies! I'm sure our newest additions would be curious to know how your smoke free life compares to your old smoking one? Are you comfortable with the choice you've made? Danielle, Bilingual Health Educator

I quit smoking on 2/14/02, not easy at all... my father passed away when I was on my way to his beside on 4/4/05... I had to plan his funeral while my mother and her sister smoked non-stop.... If I were to smoke a single deathstick right now I know that I would be back up to two packs a day within a day or two.... My point..... I know that I'm an addict... I know that I cannot smoke, no matter what.... It's a matter of control over oneself..... no matter what! Don't let the addiction control you!
