Share your quitting journey
I guess I need to get 1 of those nifty apps that post how much time since u smoked a real cig and how many cigs avoided ( roughly 15x40 = 600 - 3 cartons alrdy). I didnt save any money tho bc i used it to buy other things- but still, it good to buy things u can use instead of literally burning yr money up in smoke :).
I wonder what people mean when they say they feel better not smoking - if anything I feel worse - I got some terrible mouth sores, from not smoking - i guess my mouth is missing something in that smoke... It starting to get better tho, hope they go away :),
I also can smell smokers now and they don't smell good lol - I guess I smelled like that for 25 yrs - but I also think I am overly sensitive from having recently quit - I remember last time when I quit, after 3 months or so the smell of smoke/smokers stopped bothering me.
I haven't taken my blood pressure, I expect that should be lower, especially since I quit caffeine too - for now - but it never bothered me, just my doctors who'd freak out I 15/8, not sure why - I lived all my life with BP 13/14/15 - ever since my 20's, and so far so good :).
So what exactly am I supposed to feel that is better? I never coughed except after a cold - I guess I'll see when i get the next cold in the fall lol, but I'd like to see sooner...
I never wheezed and I could climb 5 flights of stairs without real hardship - I'd start to get short of breath about 7th floor. Guess Carr was right on that one - you need rlly strong lungs to smoke 2-3 packs a day...
Maybe next week I'll try to climb 10 floors to see if I better at that - i live on 9th floor and I could get there when I smoked 2 packs a day - but needed 3-4 mins to catch my breath after 🙂
I dont post or comment more often because here there is no1 quitting with Zyban - and I can't relate to the cravings of all other quitters - I feel no cravings, just I miss smoking sometimes - and the e-cig helps then. I miss psychologically, not otherwise.
I read this on a depression forum (been reading those because they have info on the drug I taking) and I swear it true: Zyban (rlly Wellbutrin but it same thing) makes u forget: forget to eat, forget to smoke, forget to care, forget to hurt - it true and I cant thank Glaxo enough for finding this drug - or I could have never stoped smoking even for 2 weeks. Peace out 🙂
