Thank you for your posts ❤️❤️ I woke up this morning, expecting to have the shortness of breath I’ve had for the past 14 days or so, and like magic, it was gone. Taking deep deep breaths all day. It feels nice, but what does my brain tell me? You guessed it. Had another day talking at the triggers I was experiencing. My hunny called on his way home from work and asked if he should pick anything up for me and I said cigarettes!! Lol, half kidding…he obviously skipped over that completely and said, so kfc ok for dinner? (Because cooking has been tough, usually it’s cig breaks in between and w the shortness of breath it’s more than usual takeout) anyway, thanks for listening

Just sitting here crying, frustrated at so many things. A thought of let’s buy a pack today came in my head and I talked myself down. Just really emotional right now. Sick of feeling like this at times, sick of feeling out of breath still, sick of looking at myself bc I know I put on weight. I think this is the point last year when I gave in and bought a pack…on the 16th/17th day. Ugh wtf.

I’m so glad you guys are enjoying your freedoms ❤️❤️ I think, know, I am too but that stupid romancing the cig thing comes up for me sometimes, not often, but like in the future lol….like oh man it would be nice once it gets warm in a few months out on the deck, etc. but I say to myself all the good stuff, you’re addiction’s talking, tell it to eff off and were ex smokers/nonsmoker now…etc etc. Btw I still have shortness of breath and my oxygens going wacko…I went to my dr and he totally put me at ease bc he said it’s normal…some ppl go through it some ppl don’t, it’s all that gunk coming out and sometimes clogging up while it’s coming up. And it’s different for everyone depending on their situation but just so everyone knows bc I was hella nervous, 95-100 is “A+” oxygen, 90-95 is ok too, 88 for a few hours is like the threshold of uh oh you need oxygen think abt going to hospital. Just in case anyone else was wondering lol. 2 weeks today for me, it sounds good, feels good too.

Hey friends, Since I’ve had a few doozies of days (and probably overshared a tidbit lol), I just wanted to see how everyone else is doing now vs when they were 1-3 weeks quit, or how you’re doing within that 1-3 weeks quit (like me). Today was so much better than yesterday, however my oxygen is still a tad low so I’m going to closely monitor that. My amazing fiancé cooked breakfast, ran out twice to Walgreens for me, did dishes, and vacuumed and mopped the whole house, and cooked dinner 😭😭 I tell him I don’t deserve him, he deserves a younger thinner thang other than me w these health and now mental health things going on lolol. He just keeps loving me, I don’t know what I did but guess I did something right. He smoked too, but quit in 2019 when I (me, not him) went to the hospital for breathing issues - I mean the audacity this man has for being the sweetest person ever. Although he, self admittedly, has his moments too so whatevs. Anyhoo, how is everyone?

Ty guys for your replies. Still short of breath a bit. It comes and goes. I read it could be your lungs trying to clear out whatever’s settled there for however long, paired w the anxiety….if need be I’ll go to my dr again but having just been in the hospital twice w all the tests conducted on me is helping calm the fear of is it my heart is it my lungs etc. bc everything was clear. Trying to not think abt it but it’s tough. I’ve been trying the pursed breathing jillar ty. ❤️
