How I quit smoking over a year ago

in life •  8 years ago 

So I was a smoker. I smoked a package a day for a long time. And I used to like it too. I was one of those people you see standing outside in the rain packed together under an umbrella catching a cold for a cig. And all my non-smoking friends stayed inside asking themselves why I would sacrifize my health for such a stupid thing. A cigarette.

My clothes smelled like an ashtray but I wouldn't notice because once you smoke a cigarette seemingly all your senses go haywire. I couldn't smell the awfull taste that brands a cigarette. All my loved ones did and they where not happy with that. I could sit in a room filled with smoker for hours untill my eyes hurt. Something always triggered me to seek out others smokers too. I was never alone when I was on my cigarette break. It was like one was always lurking to find another so we could team up.

However, after several years of trying I finally decided to not try anymore but simply do it. I quit smoking in a split second. I didn't even finish the package like I used to do when I unsuccessfully tried to quit that nasty habit. I did it without a second thought and since then, I haven't hungered for one more cigarette.

Vapers unite

I stopped smoking due the fact that I started vaping. In fact I vape right now and I enjoy it very much. Okay, there is still a nicotine addiction that I have to cope with but I can telle you that within a week after quitting cigarettes I could smell flowers again. And I could breathe normally again, where the lack of decent breathing went unnoticed before. I also bettered my condition which really is fun since my four kids really can exhaust someone after a day. Some other things everyone notices around me is that my clothes don't stink of smoke anymore, nor does my car, house and fingers. My skin went from yellowish to a normal tone and I don't have those nasty zits around my nose anymore. And I'm not even talking about my health in general which has improved ever since I stopped smoking cigarettes.

Another great thing about vaping is the fact that there are so many different flavors to choose from. My favorite is "Frozen" which basically is Berries with a frozen twist. It even smells great. Really. You can also vape indoors as long as you don't sit next to the firealarm. For me Vaping has come with many benefits in comparison to smoking. And it costs less too. And you can do so much cool things with it! (There are serious Vaping championships).

Smoking kills while Vaping Chills

If you havent figured it out yet: Smoking is unhealthy as drinking reactor water from Fukushima while vaping is considered to be as healthy as eating an apple. Maybe you should check out one the video below to get in on the subject and start vaping tomorrow. I want you to stop smoking and if I can do anyhting for you just look me up on Discord or Steemit Chat.

Anyways, I seriously hope you will quit smoking as soon as possible because vaping is so much better and on a sidenote: Steemit needs you!

Cheers,

Cem

Congrats man. If I wasn't asthmatic I'd take a crack at those championships lol.

I'd love to see that :P

Been vaping for a few years now. I could never go back to tobacco, and I was smoking more than 20 cigarettes a day for 18 years when I quit.

I'm a big fan of technology that changes lives and I think vaporizers are changing lives. I know that my smoker's cough is gone and I don't get sick multiple times a year like I used to.

If you like to consume nicotine, this is the one of the greatest inventions ever created.

Exactly what I was saying mate! We should resteem this as much as we can to spread the word :D

That's how I quit too, used a solid vape pen and worked down from 24mg nicotine to 0mg over the course of a year. Best decision I ever made, more people should know it is a great option for cigarette cessation.

it definately is and I am so happy I just "did it"

Muy bien, is hard to kick habits but glad their is stuff out there like this,
