Congratulations @Sadm3 for your 7 month smoke free life. I have also completed 6months and a week. I still have intermittent chest tightness and occasional stabbing pain. As all my cardiac reports were negative, I could not figure out the reasons. Please share your current experience as well. Thanks.

So Wonderful to hear your great news and to know you are doing well. I hope you are adjusting to the "new norm". Your English is fine, I cannot boast of knowing a second language. You are a strong person to raise a family, and quit smoking while going through this pandemic. Be proud! Be Free! Congratulations!

I also am saving for a trip back to Ireland to see my family as I had to cancel this year due to covid.
I'm so glad to be a non smoker I can really save some money now

Wonderful news Sadm3, thanks for coming back to share your success. You will be so used to having that extra money now, so as suggested give yourself a reward you have earned it. Keep on smiling and NOPE (not one puff ever)
