Hey Everyone, I'm new here. I'm 19 years old, and I started smoking about a year and a half ago. I have never smoked even close to or more than a pack a day (generally between 1-10 cigs daily), but I have obviously become addicted. After seeing a couple adds on TV, I thought I'd come online and check it out. I am thinking about setting my quit date to be May 2nd...I really hope I can quit. I've realized that most of the time I smoke just because I have nothing to do. So hopefully, pin-pointing these triggers will help me this time. I get really scared when I hear about people that die at really really young ages because of tobacco. I guess the older you get, the more aware you become of your life, and the more you hope that you don't die or get lung cancer. Both of my parents have never smoked, and no one in my family has thus far either. So if I don't quit, I'll definitely get it. : ( Anyways, I was just checking in and introducing myself. I wish you all luck on achieving your quitting goals...wish me luck with mine too!!

Hi Sean, Trust me as an "I AM AN EX" member, this would be the best decision you have made. Keep the day on your wall. Get away from things that makes you feel like smoking. I wish I had given up smoking when I was 21! Good luck.
