Hi All!
I guess you can add me to the list of quitting! My doctor prescribed me a Nicotral inhaler. I haven't used it yet. I have one more pack of cig's and that's it. I'm going to start using the inhaler on Monday. Has anyone else used the inhaler to quit? If so, did it work good? I started smoking when I was 17 and I quit when I was 23. I stayed off of them for over 7 years! Well, me and my ex started having having problems and it seemed like the cig's took the edge off. All it took was bumming one off a friend and I was hooked all over again. That was 13 years ago. It seems like I get sick all the time with a cold and then it turns into something bigger. My son has started begging me to quit and it really hurts knowing how bad he wants me to quit and I'm still lighting up. My son and hubby both said they will help me in anyway I need them. I'm going to put all the ash trays up and the lighters. I don't want anything in the house to make it more tempting. I've tried several times to quit before and it seems like it gets harder and harder each time. Also, my aunt called Friday and told me my uncle was in the hospital with throat cancer(he's smoked since he was about 10). I don't want to end up like that or end up carrying a oxygen tank around with me everywhere I go. I guess you'll be seeing my name on here a lot more in the future, expecially when I get one of those aweful cravings that are hard to get rid of. I know I can do it and with everyone on here helping me along it will make it that much easier. I was so thrilled when I seen this thread, it's wonderful! I'm looking forward to talking to anyone and looking forward to anyone that is going to be here to help me along the way. Well, wish me luck!!
