I still enjoy it a little but am really sick of being a slave.
I've never tried to give them up before but this will be it.
(BTW, no need to call anyone stupid)
I quit directly out of fear of disease and not liking the fact I was a slave. I was a slave because it is a drug. Pure & simple. I was addicted. But being sick of it enough I put it down, went through withdrawal and just did not let myself have "one" when I wanted one.
I don't look down on people who smoke, have at it if they like. I just want to live as long as possible and smoking is not worth the risk for me anymore.
Good luck chrisjoe13.....
