Why I started smoking
I started smoking about 12 years ago to help me give up another more debilitating substance I was smoking a lot that I became overly dependent on. It helped relieve some of the stress which I think is my biggest trigger, when I'm unhappy or overly stressed. But now in my mid 40's I can see myself aging and regret starting to smoke cigarettes.
Hi SammiJ, You can QUIT right now, it is NEVER too late. Only You can free yourself from tobacco enslavement. Nicotine DO NOT relieve your stress that is just in your mind. So many ways now to help you quit smoking. I have been smoke-free for 490 days- Let me tell you it is the best feeling in the world. I am very happy, healthy, smells wonderful, beautiful, and many, many more benefits as a non-smoker. I love n respect myself awesomely!
You can quit. It can be done! Best wishes!
