I'm 27 I smoked weed for 6 years and vaped for 8 years (cut cold turkey). My doctor didn't give me a stage just says stop smoking and you'll live a "long life". I just went to hear people experiences and best practices. I'm nor ready to clock out yet or any time soon. Any advice welcomed or questions.

I have COPD likely caused by smoking. I am 80 and on ambulatory oxygen. Totally recommend you stop smoking. At the moment I am sort of ok but due to oedema quickly get out of breath. If you stop smoking you can avoid this and I would recommend that you do.
