It took me 40 years of smoking roughly 30 smokes a day and a half dozen or so half hearted attempts at quitting smoking it wasn't until I found out that I have mild copd that I finally wised up and realized that I wasn't invincible and decided to bite the bullet and quit playing Russian Roulette with my life so I got on line and found this site and I read everything I could find about this horrid addiction and picked a quit date but when it came I wasn't ready so I reset it and then I totally forgot about this site until my 18th day when I was having back to back cravings and wanted to jump in my car and buy a carton of cigarettes instead of just a pk BUT thankfully I remembered this site and I got on line and commented on something up until that point I was hiding in the shadows and hadn't let myself be known but thankfully moody_9-18-13 commented back to me and suggested I write a blog and say a little about myself and so I did and here I am living a life of Freedom as difficult as quitting can be it's absolutely Doable and totally worth it to be Free and besides anything in this life worth having takes time and effort plus we must be willing determined and totally committed to succeed and by sticking with N.O.P.E and vigilance then then there's just no way can FAIL .....
