Really why make giving up that awful drug complicated.

 

If you have decided to stop then you have to have realised ... Hey smoking is stupid..it does nothing for me..it is not helping my health, my self esteem, my anxiety, my finances, my taste buds, my happiness, my sense of smell, ANYTHING....

 

So if you are teetering between smoking or not, think real hard about what is so wonderful about smoking...there is no good reason for it...there are only EXCUSES.

 

Usually it is a bad thing to hate .... but the way I see it, HATE cigarettes with all your might, they have been killing you and will continue to until YOU say ENOUGH. Hate them and you will be half way there, what is there to love about them....NOTHING. Actually, ABSOLUTELY nothing.

 

And how can you miss nothing!!! You cannot.

 

What a waste of time to let nothing be a big part of your life. Make NOT smoking EVERYTHING and you will not be NOTHING ever again....LOVE YOURSELF you are not NOTHING.

Great post Dors :)

Thank you. 

What a great summary of our addictions. Smoking does nothing except keep a person smoking and slowly kill them.

Awesome post Dors!  I'm glad you're here paying it forward with us. :):):)

This is a great post Dors. :) I wish more folks would realize how stupid smoking is and how there are absolutely no benefits to smoking. 

Good post...

The worst part of smoking is what it does to our loved ones.

 

The second hand smoke we share, or the emotional exhaustion they suffer through as we fall apart, or the impoverishment that the medical bills cause.

 

The list goes on.  Smoking is bad for us and horrible for those who love us.

And our loved ones are afraid we will die of lung cancer or have poor quality of life duecto COPD. We're selfish & foolish to continue.
