July 24, 20179 yr It's amazing, It has only been a month and a half since I Demanded that smoking monster leave and I haven't had one coughing spell since. That is big reward for me. I no longer have coughing fits when I am talking to people. My grandchildren have even mentioned it to me saying "Grandma, we haven't heard you coughing anymore". :D :D :D :D
July 24, 20179 yr Fabulous !!!!....and the rewards and beniefts keep on coming... Out of the mouths of babes !!!!....feel proud ..x
July 24, 20179 yr Fantastic Breathless! Just got back from a coast-to-coast trip and was sitting next to a smoker who was hacking the whole 5.5 hours. It's great to be free from that wretchedness.
July 24, 20179 yr That used to be me too B57! It's one of the things I notice most about my own quit and am the most happy about too :) The other thing I have noticed is, I haven't had my normal number of colds this year. In fact, I haven't been sick since I quit smoking in January. Normally, I would have had a couple of colds by now. It's great!! I love being healthier than I was when I smoked :)
July 24, 20179 yr One of many benefits you get from quitting. I actually stopped snoring since I quit. Keep up the good work.
July 24, 20179 yr I used to attribute the coughing to allergies. I do have seasonal allergies but amazingly since quitting smoking, my allergies don't actually cause coughing. Headache? Yes. Coughing? Uh... no.
July 25, 20179 yr 4 years later, and I can tell you that I am still thrilled to be free of that hacking stupid cough. I had that dry scratchy cough and had to clear my throat constantly because I was embarrassed to cough while talking to someone - they might know I smoke if I cough in front of them!!! Ugh! Clearing my throat was such a nice sound over coughing - NOT!!! Both were disgusting. As soon as I got alone, I'd sure hack it up. Ahhhh freedom from that feels so good!! Congrats to you for being free!
July 25, 20179 yr Petra- I agree you do some disgusting things Reptard those weren't colds. Your just a shot nose kid And the biggest for last... Breathless is a grandma!!!!
