I haven't smoked for 7 months and 4 days. Before my quit I was smoking for 38 yrs. and using an inhaler for the last 3 yrs. Since my quit I find that I use the inhaler about once every two weeks, not bad from twice a day!
You are young and have many, many years ahead of you so you need to do it now and not waste anymore time worrying about it. You can and will heal but you need to stop now!
Go to whyquit.com and get a reality check. Look through the "motivation" section. Also, for support, read through "Joel's library". This should answer any question you have and it truly does help explain why we do the things we do : )
Hang in there and let us know how you are doing.
