Mind over matter

Hey every one thank you for sharing your stories.Today makes 16 days no smoking.I smoked for over 20 years ,It’s been hard i’ve Been in and out of the hospital dealing acid,gas ,sore throat,difficultly swallowing food and anxiety.So today I read some stories and believe it or not i’m Happy I did.the doctor running all these test on me.But reading your stories will help me get through this.today makes 3 weeks and 1 day of pain.i feel like smoking again but I made a promise.This sore throat and heat in my chest is uncomfortable.Is withdrawal or is it sickness.Dont know but soon I will find out.Trying to stay strong.

Stay strong! The quitting flu is a real thing. All these symptoms trick you into thinking its not worth it. Push through it goes away. And if ita a real sickness you would pf caught it either way but smoking doea not help anything =)
