Smoked twenty years, took chantix three times before it finally worked. I haven’t had a cigarette in 12 years.

Back in 2022 after a loooooong break from 2010. Old name Ratpack, same for the BBS.

Squad I did the most tours with were the Excaliburs then The 172nd Rabid Dogs. Still trying to talk Illigaf, Coola, Oldman22, and Joecrow into coming back instead of being boring old farts!

I got colon cancer. The Dr. said colon cancer is closely associated with smoking. I don't smoke any more. I used Chantix and another drug to kick the habit. I have never felt better! When I smoked nothing got done. After I quit, my dishes are done, yard mowed, toilets clean, laundry done, bed made, and the list goes on. One person joked that I replaced smoking with OCD. Another pointed out that smoking is OCD. If you smoke you are not well though, you may think you are.

Last thing, Colon Cancer is not fun!

If you're smoking weed, beware screens.     

A stainless screen will become hexzavalent chromium and you don't want that in your lungs.

I quit smoking for 4.5 years, it was great and all, but then I started living too long. Started again.

Sad fact is one will never quit unless they come to terms that they want to quit.

I have smoked for 30 years and though during that time, if I was able to be lazy and take a magic pill to cure my cravings, I probably would of went along with it but never made a serious effort to quit during that time.

I quit for 2 years from 2016-2018 then made the mistake of having special occasion cigars then go back to full blown usage. I quit again for about a year and a half ago and still smoke free. I have come to terms that its just not an option anymore. I suffer from high BP , extreme sleep apnea (I stopped breathing about 120 times per hour in my sleep). Happy to say that even when surrounded by smokers, I have no urge to go back and yes, I look and feel much better.

So sorry to here this.

The thread is about pricing insanity, not promoting smoking
