I am 31 years old, and have the first kid on the way in October.
I've tried to quit before at least 100 times and never been able to do it. I'm tired of it, tired of having to have it, tired of the nastiness that it is, and tired of knowing what it could do to me.
My moment of clarity came upon finding a spot on my tongue. We've all found them right? This one was different, scared the crap out of me. And I thought, "Why am I doing this to myself?". And that was it. I want to have a complete tongue, mouth, jaw to tell my wife and new child how much I love them.
I'm done, just like that, no more.
