Fell off the wagon....now I'm back

I'm going to do the plan on this website. I haven't done it yet. And I won't make the mistake I did last time and think I can do this by myself with no support. So I'm back and I'm starting all over. And I have resolved myself to the fact that I may fall down again. But I'm determined that I'm going to keep on quitting until I finally get it right. Okay...now thats out I can begin the journey again. My next step is to face my family and come clean. Then I guess I need to forgive myself. I ha… Continue

Relapsed and now I'm back

Well...here I am again. I really hoped I wouldn't be. I relapsed and have been smoking again for about a 3 weeks. The good part is I've smoked only half a pack a day as opposed to the pack and a half a day I was doing before I quit the first time. I thought I would be able to do the plan this time (I went cold turkey the first go round) but it seems my lungs won't let me. Every time I light one up I get to feeling VERY light headed and sick to my stomach. So...I'm going cold AGAIN! I just tried… Continue

30 Days & 30 Nights

I can't believe it's been a whole month today! I have had some urges, but I was able to get through. I can breath better. I don't cough up all that yuck I was doing when I smoked.( That was nasty ) My husband kisses me more. Thats a BIG plus. He's always been a non-smoker and has wanted me to quit 4 years. I think he gave up on me quitting a few years back. We just celebrated our 16th wedding anniversary on the 16th of june and he has been really proud & very supportive of my journ…

Hello,
I am new on here. I joined a couple of weeks agobut tonight is my first time seeking others and well just checking things out. I noticed your diagnostics of COPD and Emphasema. I was wondering what are your symtpoms. I hope I do not have that however I have been having some symptoms and well now scared. They have been off and on for a few months now. I also quit smoking specfically because of these symtoms but is been two weeks since I have smoked and since last night the symptoms came back. I am 29 years old, and have smoked off and on for about 12 years sometimes very heavy. I do have issues with distress since I lost my mom and not sure if the symptoms I am having is from that as I was diagnosied with anxiety attacks after loosing my mom. Just not sure if it is anxiety attacks or not since it is a tad similar, I have pressure around my throat consistant feel like something is there and some chest discomfort.Overall can you tell me what your symptoms were? I am just stressed because am so afraid of all the illnesses that comes with smoking now am afraid I might have it or something and maybe getting insite from someone who knows a little will help. I sure appreciate you reading this
