Life or Smoking? - Billfreads
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I keep seeing a lot of messages about people ready to quit, BUT!!!!! in a week or even a month, really people, when we QUIT
we quit now, sure I can see a few days but good grief why put it off, if you want to quit smoking then you will do it now not a few weeks
down the line, I don't know, I don't mean to be nasty but again, I see so many people that want to QUIT and they simply can not
do the most common thing that one does, ASK YOUR DOCTOR, MAKE SURE YOU CAN TAKE EITHER THE PATCH OR PILLS.
sure ask us here can you do this or that, did you have this or that if and when you took these things, got to remember,
we all have different reactions to certain medication and if you have any problems, I would strongly suggest to see a Medical
Doctor and finally, NO SMOKING WILL NOT GO AND LEAVE YOU, the urges can stay with you for weeks, months and even years,
so remember that if and when you quit smoking or if you try to quit, it is not easy and depending on a person it can take you
a Long time!
Some of us X-smokers have so many complaints as to WHY? Some of us we are trying and it will not take, some of us for
some reason, STRESS seems to be one of these things that drive many people back to smoking, all I can say "Whoopdedoo"
for crying out loud, if you really want to quit, what kind of excuse is stress?
?, do you really want to quit or have the world feel sorry for you
"you tell us?
?", like I said, you really want to QUIT SMOKING and no matter what, you will do it.
we don't seem to take it as seriously as we should, we haven't got a clue that we simply can not believe in, well,
I smoked for 58 years and I decided I HAD to quit before I was one on the fatal one's, I don't want Cancer, I don't want to walk around
with a blasted Oxygen Tank, I don't want to have the bloody plastic tubing going into my Nose just so I can breathe, I don't want another
Stroke and I don't want to have an Heart attack, people, there are 599 seperate chemicals in Cigarettes,
and more things that can happen to you and none are nice.
You will wind up in Hospital and there you lay, if you have the gumption to watch, then you know what will happen to you.
I watched my Wife when she had the Angioplasti, it was painfull for her, I cried inside and at times outside as well because I
thought it could not happen to us, well be aware, it did and she died but I will never forget the BAD times that she had in that blasted
Hospital, they gave her food that a DOG would get sick of, some things were fine but others were not, I may not be a Doctor
but a Human Being is supposed to be treated with respect and kindness, well not in the St Michaels Hospital in Toronto Ontario.
Please if you want to live then help yourself, try to QUIT the NicoDemon because you will be far better off if you can manage, I know it will
be hard, it was hard for me too, I mean after 58 years, Hey man, face reality, I am lucky as some of you might be and I don't have
any Smoke related Illnesses so far, I am off now for 20 months and I can breathe freely and smell freely.
PLEASE do yourself a favour and QUIT the those blasted Cancer Sticks you will thank every one that you meet in later in life for not smoking.
reduce your chances of getting mouth/nose/throat/lung/espohageal/cancer, emphysema, asthma, stroke, sinus infections, allergies, ulcers,
ear aches, circulatory diseases, heart failure, glaucoma, viruses, bacterial and fungal infections, peridontal diseases, polyps, and over 50 other
serious diseases, that actually strike most smokers in their 30's, 40's and 50's not in their 80's, like they thought it would. (Surprised???),
A lot of these Illnesses I had no idea about those either but they are smoke related.
We must overcome this Demon of addiction, Smoking is the worst addiction to overcome, it is worse than Coke, Heroin, Crack, hell
you name it and we as smokers are way above any of these d**n Drug abusers because it is so much harder to quit.
We are hooked for life, some people that quit seem to go back after 5 to 10 years, the Nicotene Demon will keep on trying at the
most inportune times, we must learn on how to say "NO, NO, NO I will not and I must not."
Small excuses like "Oh well I was so bowled over because I had problems here and there and I was mad and I wanted to show the
World, really now, if you smoke who or what are you showing to anybody???
Please, don't show any excuse for an thought to get back to your Puffing, it is a weakness but it will not prove a bloody thing to your
self or anyone else, if anything, it will only show that you are weak.
Is it not a show of your trying to send a signal that you are WEAK, if you smoke a Cigarette then you are weak, you want to use and will use
any excuse to satisfy your excuse to have a smoke, even if it is just ONE CIGARETTE, do not use anymore before you get back because
It can be very nasty to get back into the Groove and I kow just how much of a pull the Nicodemon has, if you give him
one Chance, you're virtually back to Square #1 fighting him all over, remember the Urges, the Cravings,
he will not give up and he will not QUIT because he thinks the world is HIS for the taking.
DON'T, for heavens sake "DON'T" use that excuse and be strong, that is all the Nico Demon needs to get you back into the Tar Pits, remember, he will strike
at the most opportune time that you offer him and usually... People will follow him until they remember, "Oh dear Lord" what just happened
I smoked and I gave in to this obscene Demon and his trick?
People, please, the Nico Demon will never give up, do yourself me and a favor, QUIT while the Quitting is good, you and people around you will
thank you for your trying, you will not suffer because of Cancer, It is painful, the Chemo is as well, then you have all the other things.
Stroke, Heart attack and who can tell what else, please help yourself, QUIT and make all of us happy and PLEASE remember, you are a X-Smoker,
and NOT a NON SMOKER, a Non Smoker is someone who's never smoked in his life.
Remember, in order to quit you must want to quit 100%, your cravings will not go when you grab any Medication, it will be hard
and you will have violent cravings to have just one cigarette, as we would say N.O.P.E. (Not One Smoke Ever)
