A safe page for lung cancer patients unable to give up tobacco or those tired of being blamed for their cancer. No stigma.

[Denzie]

Tobacco has been described as more addictive than heroin or crack.  Many of us tried without success to quit.  For many, even a lung cancer diagnosis is not enough to help beat the addiction.  

Lung cancer patients who’ve been unable to quit need a place they can go to discuss symptoms and treatment without fear of being blamed, shamed and stigmatized for their cancer.  For that reason, I’ve started a new Facebook page just for lung cancer patients who continue to use tobacco. If this describes you, please join me. 

( You won’t get that here either It’s good to have an alternative)

Good morning! I run r/lungcancer and r/lungcancersupport on reddit. This looks like a great resource to add for my members. Problem is that I do not have facebook activated at this time. Could you tell me the exact name of the group (either here or message me here or email: [e-mail] or on reddit as @walkinghorse). Thanks so much! This sounds like a great resource for many of my fellow lung cancer survivors.

The exact name of the group is:

Lung Cancer? Can’t Quit? No Stigma or Shaming Allowed.

I will also send a PM.

Thank you Denzie! I will add it to our sidebar in both reddits this afternoon. Fortunately not a group I need but I did have a heck of a time quitting over a decade ago. The no stigma and shaming is so important.
