Did you know?

14 years ago 0 +0 / -0 90

I think what is most alarming is that most smokers know the statistics and know how much they are damaging their health, yet they still do it. I did for 25 years. I knew it could kill me, I knew it gave me headaches, wrinkles, lack of energy, isolated me from my family and other non-smokers, yet I did it twenty times a day.

Very interesting....but also alarming. I think they are all quite troubling.

I'm ready to put a stop to this habit of mine.

I think we are all aware and troubled by the possible consequences of our smoking. I always just pushed them out of my mind and kept puffing. It wasn't real unless I was sick or hacking. The end came when I was standing in my bathroom coughing my lungs up and reaching for a cigarette. Somehow at that moment I realized just how insane it was to keep doing this to myself. It took many years to reach that point. I hope others don't wait that long.

To me, they are all equally as troubling, Jason. I really regret what I have put my body through.

None... unfortunately as a former smoker I knew all the statistics.... I finally wised up and realised that I could beat the addiction and hopefully NOT become a statistic
