"I´ve smoked for years, so it won´t help me to stop now"

Smokers don't care about health benefits, breathing or cancer...... FACT
I care, + I dont wake up every morning to obay a nagging drug addiction, works for me .........FACT

I noticed a slight wheeze when I was going to sleep, at first I tried to blame it on one of the dogs, but after holding my breath and listening.. all was quiet,, when I laid my head on my pillow and started to fall asleep this slight wheeze came back.
About the 3 rd day/night og quitting.. the wheeze has left the building.:)
I can finish a task or chore in 1/2 the time.. I'm not stopping to take a smoke break, I also have more time as I am not cleaning dirty ashtrays, or ashes off things.
I am not "anxious" I can relax.. I am not looking for a next time or place to light up.

If you smoke, you're cutting years off your life. A 35-year-old man, for instance, will live about five years longer just by quitting smoking, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse.
The same holds true for women. The good news is that as soon as you stop smoking, you may not only begin to breathe easier, you may taste your food again, too. You can't turn back the clock, but if you quit smoking for a decade or more, your risk of cancer is much lower and your risk heart disease may be almost the same as someone who's never smoked.
