I joined this site today. I have been smoking for 45 years. I was diagnosed with COPD last March when I had Bacterial Pneumonia. I have never quit smoking. I truly want to go cold turkey with no NRT. I have a date in mind. I have enjoyed reading the comments here. I will begin researching information on quitting. Thanks to all for the valuable contributions on the individual testimonies.
I'm so happy to welcome you here! Have a good look around, read the recommended blog posts and Alan Carr's book. The wonderful "elders" on here will provide all the links you need! However you decide to quit, and when, you're making the best decision of your life. Literally.
