My name is Kristen and I'm almost 23 years old. I've been smoking for 7 years and i finally made the choice to quit. It wasn't easy! I came upon this website hoping to get support from others that are going through the same thing, as i have no one around me that is going through this. I'm also hoping to gain new friends and have someone to go through this journey with together.
Thank you for the support. My main reasons for doing this is my 2 children. Not only that but for myself as well. I just want to be a healthier 22 year old. I got to the point where i don't like how the cigarette smoke tastes. I knew it was time to let it go.
Last night (8-19-2011) I got into an argument when my boyfriend in the middle of Walmart. I do admit, it was a stupid argument. I've been using Nicotine gum for 3 days and it seems to help when i do use it. But at the time of the argument i didn't have any nicotine in my system. It's weird to think how dependent i am on the gum and not having it turns me into a royal b-word. It just nice to know that i have it to help me stay on the right path.
I actually took a few deep breaths last night before i lashed out at him and made a complete fool of myself. But thinking back on it I probably could've handled it better. Thank you all for the support. It's really helping me stay on the right path!
Well since i gave birth to my 2 children my eye sight hasn't been the best anyway. I was just concerned that i may have astigmatism and smoking masked it. Is that possible?
I'm planning on it. 4th time trying to quit and i think this is gonna be the one that sticks. I've done more research this time on how to stay smoke free and it's helping.
