Good evening or good morning to all Us nonsmokers😀
What a wonderful feeling this is. I'm calmer and my self esteem is good because I'm respecting myself by not poisoning myself. One dr told my friend..... Smoking is a slow death......so basically for me it is 1 hour at a time and .......NOPE NOT ONE PUFF......EVER!!!!!!!!!
Good morning glolin☕️ Ya I really am feeling better about myself. I'm protecting myself from the dangers of cigarettes and that makes me feel good. I would never wish smoking apon my loved ones so why did I do that to myself. Hmmmmmmm
Good morning Briarwood☕️ Made it through into another new day of being smokefree. I found a picture of a little duckling that I'm going to post for you. I know we're both at our best by the water, oceans, seas, lakes and rivers
Hi Wayneclark. Welcome💐 You know, I think your asthma will improve and you may not even need your inhaler(puffer) if you quit the cigarettes. I actually have allergies to animals but of course hahaha I have animals because they bring me such joy.......AND .....I did have a bit of asthma so the dr prescribed me an inhaler( puffer) to use occasionally along with an antihistamine.... But you know.... This last month of staying off cigarettes has helped me tremendously !!!!
I went through terrible physical withdrawals ie: exhaustion, nausea, aching teeth, sore gums etc but through all that I felt happier about myself and I have not used my puffer once ( not to say that goes for everyone). But smoking is deadly for asthmatics. Maybe could lead to COPD.... Maybe not.... It's a gamble we all take with our lives when we smoke..... Please really find a reason in your heart to give up these deadly poisons in cigarettes. Keep in touch and I will try my best to help you find a reason to stop the cigarettes.... The people on this site are awesome support❤️

Wayne, if you have a look to the right and up a bit, you will see Pinned Posts, on there you will find '' quit plan '' have a read through that and make a quit plan I highly recommend you do this, cos I know myself, it helped me to get through a couple of hard times If there is anything you dont understand, or need help with, or if you cant find it, then please just ask us its as easy as that Wayne
Secondly, asthma I dont suffer with it myself, but there are quit a few of our members who do suffer with it, some tend to get a bit worse when they quit but thats due to all the toxins in your body from smoking soooo, when you quit, these toxins are no longer in your body so a visit to your GP's will sort this out, a change of medication
As you go along your quit journey, like Arizonasands and other members have said, they dont need to use there inhalers so much sooo, thats got to be good eh
