[marywilliams]

Yes true, it is so sad people can't stop if they could only see their future if they keep smoking. Thank you Dr.

Stopped smoking for 16 as of February 01, hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life time, eating better exercising, 66 yrs old feel like a million bucks, the benefits of not smoking are endless

Good advice and timely. My sister just had a portion of her left lung removed and stopped smoking at 27 . She is now 72. My other sister was visiting yesterday and we were talking about her Mother N Law who died a long time ago from COPD having smoked her whole life.

I recently quit smoking on January 9th 2023, due to a weed anxiety attack and I knew it was no longer for me again. I been a month sober and it’s the best thing ever. Yes I had withdrawal symptoms but it was worth it cause I’m done damaging my body that’s slowly killing me when I take a hit

I have a family member who now has a permanent trach after throat cancer. Her voice box has been removed, and she hasn't talked for a year.

My MIL is 92, and she's been smoking for over 70 years. Relatively healthy for 92.

It's like playing Russian roulette with your health.

In 1978, I quit a very addictive smoking habit. I became a non-smoker, and I have never wanted another cigarette. Once you make the decision to become a non-smoker, quitting is easy.

U are a real inspiration and serving the society for real

I used to be a smoker and I am now a non smoker for a number of years and most importantly for the rest of my life so I can enjoy being a grandad and lead an active lifestyle

I quit smoking 8 months ago . If I even breathe in smoke 💨 (my mother smokes a lot ! ) it makes me cough so bad . I’m done smoking forever !

I grew up in a mostly low income environment which obviously wasn't ideal, and as I got older my grandmother would help out my mother because she was always low on money. couple hundred here, couple hundred there etc etc

Recently my grandmother passed away suddenly and although I had zero interest in any kind of inheritance, there really wasn't anything left because it ultimately all went on my mother...and she still has nothing now.

I just did the maths a few weeks ago and figured out that over the course of my life, my mother has spent roughly 50, 000 on cigarettes and my grandmother had spent roughly 20, 000.

70, 000 of family wealth literally up in smoke.

I quit on 4/20/21. Easy. TELL YOUR INNER CHILD NO. Do it with love, step outside of yourself and explain to YOU, that the ME in charge wants YOU to grow up healthy, live long and breathe as easy as it was when you were young. Be the adult in the room, be the child who is cared for by your future self.

My father passed away from smoking in 2019 at just 62 years old. Not a pleasant way to go.

[RandomPerson-ycvm]

Dr can you please make a video about vaping

[katrinareed]

Thank you I am happy to find you to hear that I just put it out

[xxtwobitxx]

I finally stopped, been about a year and a half. I was finally getting winded whenever I was working but now feel alot better

[yizzynightingale]

I agree !!
I tried to tell my little sister that and she got super mad at me.
I telling her that her kids get sick cuz the 2nd hand smoke goes in back seat of the car. She replied, I have window down and all the smokes go outside the window. Its always an excuse for something.
Im concerned because she has many allergies, forget a lot and did have extreme low blood count once.
I even remembered when my 2 sisters and I went out for lunch, my little sister was coughing and holding her chest saying it hurts. We both told her are okay. She said Im OK, I probably hurt it some how.
Also Im concerned cause before my mom passed away she had my little sister hang on to my trust fund and give some of it to me monthly so I can take care of my 3 disability adult children. I do have 2 other adults children but they are out in another city.( 5 children in all). Im concerned about her everyday.
I pray for her everyday too🙏🏻🙏🏻

It's been almost a year for me after smoking for 20 years half pack a day. I've had so much stress in my life, I felt that quitting smoking was something positive I could do and I was in control. One less thing trying to destroy me.
