When you get to the point that you are literally suffocating, you do what you have to do, so I quit. And to be honest, quitting was sooo easy after not being able to get any air into my lungs.

I do breath better now, but I want a ciggarette every now and then.....

Heh, this is always a good way ... My grandpa on my Mom's side died of emphysema, two of my uncles on my mom's side died of emphysema. I am 27, have been smoking for 14 years and my dumb ass still smokes.

I have quit 3 + months twice in my life - both times the trigger was drinking. If you have it in your blood - you are doomed... Life sucks, then ya die! My fiancee who both tokes and smokes puts a 'wonderful' spin on it - lol. Her answer about "Aren't you worried about Lung Cancer" is

'I would rather die at 50 full of life then die at 85 with the last 20 years of my life being full of doctor visits, x-rays, and "wondering" about what ifs'

Made me think seriously, would I rather live the life of someone old... waiting to die of something besides lung cancer. Or live my life day to day ? Still not sure what my answer is BUT I have fucked everything else in my life up so I'll make sure to post when I decide so you can all go the opposite way!!
