GRRRRRRRRRR

[miles]

I am not a chewer, dipper, spitter, whatever elser, I am a smoker, 36 and have smoked for 22 of those years.  I remember when my mom caught me, she said"at least smoke the 100's, they'll last longer".  I buried her 3 months ago, two weeks before she died, I was on the phone with her, I could hear her rattling breath, like she had run a marathon, as she told her home health nurse, "hold on let me finish my cigarette", I said what the hell are you doing? she said it was time to put on her oxygen, I thought what the fuck!!! I believe I even said what the fuck, but really thought FUCK when I lit my own cigarette while talking to her.  I have always said I can quit whenever I want, so not true.  I call myself a light smoker, maybe 4-5 a day, only after dinner, woo wee, this shit is hard. I have a friend who asked me to check this site out, I said B I am not a dipper, come on man,I am even a girl, I can't join this shit, well, damn, y'all get it more than anyone else.  I will lean on y'all for support, and please allow me to vent.  Nicotine is Nicotine no matter the mode.  Today is day 6 for me, I tried to trick my brain, not quitting on New Years day, I think my brain has figured it out.

Nicotine is an equal opportunity killer.
You will find we're more the same than different when it comes to addiction.

My Dad passed away in July due to smoking at the ripe old age of 63.
The last 5years or so were limited by the length of his O2 hose, or the size of his tank. He died from asphyxiation. Not a bullet to the head, not from his heart stopping...he died because he couldn't breath any more. FUUUUUCK THAT.
I'm not interested in standing in that line.

On the flip side...
See, my folks split up 14yrs ago. My dad continued is self destructive ways and "lived for today". Well...you can see where THAT got him.

My Mom, on the other hand, quit smoking when they split up. She decided to start a new life...and she did. No smoking, no drinking, even no caffiene. She hikes, climbs mountains, cross country ski's, goes on long bike rides, plays golf. She found a great guy a few years back too. What ever she wanted for herself, she got.


See...YOU have a choice.
Stick with your decision to quit.
Your future you will thank you over, and over, again.

Welcome to your QUIT!

Double check the time stamp.

Welcome to the site and sorry for your loss.
I had been dipping for 27 years but mixed in cig use here and there to help me stop dipping. Boy doesn't that make a lot of sense!!!!
Nicotine is nicotine, no matter how your putting it in your body.
You've already heard from Cathy (Samcat), I'm sure the rest of our awesome female Quitters will be contacting you.
YOU CAN DO THIS, WE CAN HELP YOU!!!
