6 days tobacco free but vaping.
Hi new to this site. I was a heavy smoker for 20 years and decided 6 nights ago to smoke my last cig. I lasted cold turkey for almost 15 hours than gave in to my e cig better choice than a real cig. I want to use the ecig only as an aid and be completly nicotine free sooner than later. My biggest problem

Eleven Days........never thought I could do it
Hi All Eleven days now, I haven't posted for a few days, I always go away this time of year, I find it very hard to cope on the anniversary of my sons death. I came through that trauma without a need to have a puff, so I guess I can do the rest. The support on this site is great, even just reading

Teeth and gums problems since quitting....
Since I
quit
smoking
, they have deteriorated dramatically and my confidence is just shot, I only smile with my mouth closed and only open my mouth slightly when talking as so conscious and paranoid about it. I have money saved up at the moment and really want to get my teeth sorted.

PLEASE! Anyone else....
struggling to
quit
smoking
while going through panic/anxiety and depression?? I am, and it seems to make everything worse. I SO badly want to quit and each night I tell myself I will do better the next day. Sometimes I do, and other days I don't. I am terrified to quit and terrified not to.

First holiday temptation avoided
on the last day of the holiday by a guy who only minutes earlier I had told I had
quit
smoking
! ...Lead us not into temptation and all that jazz. Needless to say I told him about my 50 days milestone and politely declined (when other 'non-smokers' took up his offer).

Couch to 9k
Hi all, 59 years old and recently
quit
smoking
after a lifetime, the weights started coming on so need to do something about it. With this in mind I've entered a 5k run (sponsored) and have today done my first training session.

When is tachycardia considered normal?
I haven't been offered any treatment and basicallly been told to take 75mg of aspirin,
quit
smoking
(which I have) and to watch my cholesterol. That's it ! Is that the best I can hope for? I have absolutely no quality of life. Any advice would be greatly appreciated 😄

Beware of misdiagnosis! My story...
I had always been an extremely strong and fit dancer, despite
smoking
off and on, but had
quit
that habit some time before. When the consultant at Hereford Hospital heard I'd been a smoker he quickly declared "copd" after spending what seemed like 30 seconds with me. Voila. I had copd! Or did I?
