Will power
Hi everybody
I am sharing my story so I can encourage others to quit smoking. My story is differnt. I have been smoking for 40 years since I was 18. I tried many times to stop but I always failed. This time although I have quit for 14 days I am determined not to smoke for ever. I haven't touched a cigarette in the last 2 weeks. The Nicabate patches are helpfull. It is not easy but I will do it and I will never touch a cigarette again. I am embarassed from my grandchildren. They used to ask me to stop everytime they see me smoking and I don't want to hurt them by passive smoking. I already feel the improvement in breathing and taste and smell. I walk every day for at least half an hour so I don't put on weight. I think if I can do it anyone should be able to do it or at least try and if they fail they can try again.
Congratulations on being 14 days smoke free!!! As you said it isn't easy but worth so much when achieved. I am on day 9 and honestly feel fantastic right now. Go us :)
14 days after 40 years a smoker is a great start, but to encourage you I'm a bloke who smoked for 53 years and I've just clicked over 400 days without a smoke.
You can go back through the posts here if you don't believe me.
Hi KHajaj, well done on 14 days you sound very determined well done and wish you luck for the future stay strong...you CAN beat this ....
Thanks for all who left comments on my story. Thats really encouraging especially from Bill who smoked for 53 years. I feel as if I have new friends who are really helping me to stay away from cigarettss. Thanks very much...
