RE: Up in Smoke

in #smoking5 years ago (edited)

It won't be easy but you have to be strong and you'll do it. I quit eight or so years ago and can tell you it was pretty easy. Since then I guess I've smoked one or two cigarettes because I was angry but after the first few seconds I felt disgusted, it wasn't good.
Coffee on the other hand is a very different matter. I was drinking strong espresso all day long and got to a point where had to admit I'm killing myself slowly, so i quit last September. The first few days were very though, I was feeling literally sick, was having withdrawal symptoms like headaches, shivering, light headed, sleepiness and so on. After that it became easier and had no coffee since then, not even decaf. It's been almost one year and I'm very proud of it! It helped a lot to identify what coffee meant to me, an honest soul searching can help you a lot but don't want to talk about that in public. (If you'd like to talk to someone, I'm on discord and happy to help.)
Good luck and don't give up! If I could give up coffee (I am living with low blood pressure that sometimes can make my life miserable), you can quit smoking too.
