Why I want to quit

I have chose to quit smoking after loosing both my parents at young ages . My dad passed away at the age of 47 due to heart disease. He was a smoker . My mum passed at the age of 57 with heart disease. She was a ex smoker who smoked for 20+ years . I am currently 37 and realised now is the time to stop firstly for my self then my family and friends. Life is short enough

Hi Geof87, welcome and 37 is a good age to Quit. Of course now is the best time to Quit'em, because life is short enough, agreed. We do know that smoking does shorten their (smoker's) live's.
sending important knowledge & positive vibes your way! ') common knowledge.

Sorry for your loss, but your parents would certainly be proud that you are taking the right steps to a brighter and healthier future.
Smoking never solved anything and we just continued to make excuses so that we could avoid the process and not have to endure a few cravings. We just lit up to stave them off.
You can do this just like millions of others.
