I began smoking at 13 , fulltime from about 15yrs old up to 30yrs old , pack + a day.
When I found out I was to be a father I was informed by my sons Mother that there would be no smoking around the baby.As well at the time I worked as a Nursing Attendant and the quit smoking drive was going into high gear , so I went to the Doc and got a perscription for the patch.So I began what was one of the most if not the most difficult things to do in my life , quit smoking.I relapsed several times , smoked butts from places I'd rather not think about and struggled with the effects of withdrawals from smoking.The day my son was born I removed the patch I had on and have not had a ciggarette since , not a puff!
That was close to 20 yrs. ago and I still get the urge to have a smoke from time to time , not very often anymore but , it still happens.
I agree that anyone who smokes should quit for various reasons and if you don't smoke leave them be.
They say quitting smoking is as hard or harder than quitting heavy drugs such as heroin.
I still smoke the "weed" and it's funny it doesn't get me back in the habit of smoking cigs. but , if I have weed I can't leave it be so I go for periods without it then get some for a period of time and so on.Funny thing is when I smoke weed I don't get shortness of breath , hacking up flem , etc. , wierd.
I have no issues with smokers and respect their choice to smoke but , there is no doubt it is a habit that controls your everyday life and untill you quit you don't even realise it!
