I am finding a noticeable difference in how I feel when I wake up now, in terms of not coughing / wheezing etc Its awesome.

Yeah- I remember it well. It used to happen at night when I was trying to get to sleep and I hated it. In fact, it's one of the factors that finally made me see sense.

Well done you! :)

Well done you! :)

it was the same for me. In the last few months of smoking, some cigarettes used to hurt like hell and each puff was followed by chronic coughing and the realisation that it was time to stop. But then, out of the blue, I could smoke one from start to finish without coughing and all my resolve went. The urge to stop smoking that came when I thought of life without cigarettes, and how good it would be, were soon pushed to one side with the urgency in the little voice that told me it was time to have a cigarette now. All the reasons I thought of and encouraged to stop smoking used to disappear in a puff of smoke.

The one thing I couldn't make disappear was the rasping and protests that came from my lungs every night when I was trying to go to sleep. I used to cough and cough and get them started from as low down as I could but it was useless. It was a constant reminder of the damage I was doing to myself and even I wasn't stupid enough to think it could be made better by another cigarette.

Now, the memory of that wheezing and rasping, that I once saw as something unwelcome, is enthusiastically wheeled out if my thoughts are ever inclined to dwell on the pleasures of smoking.

Not what you're looking for?
