Oh man I started to cry a little after seeing the amount of tar for just a year and I’ve been smoking so long. I’m really going to make a conscious effort this time around!! Wish me luck and good luck to everyone quitting!

I quit smoking 7 years ago with the help of Allen Carr ‘s book. I am very happy and proud of myself for quitting an awful habit.

I quit 8 years ago cold turkey, and Youtube vids on this matter were very motivational. Good luck to everyone!

I have always gone back to smoking. 15 years now in a blink. I need to stop and heal now, and came across this video late at night. Am 42, and hope I'll make it. Thank you! I will stop NOW.

Smoked for about 25 years, quit about 6 months ago. I will tell you when i quit, I felt like i was going to cough up a lung! It was intense! I started going to the gym shortly after stopping, and the coughing was even worst! I knew I was coughing up years of tar and nicotine, but the coughing fits scarred me a little. I turned to the internet, and found out that it was fairly normal. Some people cough more than others. After about a month, the coughing subsided and went away! No more coughing in the morning, or night ! I breath so much better, and food taste a lot better! Thus the 10 pounds i gained! lol ! And the one thing i do not miss is that smell in my clothes, and my skin. One more thing, the coughing spells kind of was a good thing. Every time I think of picking up a cigarette, i think about those intense coughing spells, and how long it took to get that crap out of my system. Good luck to everyone, either you will quit smoking or the smoking will quit you! At least that is how I felt.

Also hot baths and inhaling steam can do miracles, Herbal teas and daily exercise have a great effect on reversing smoking effects I can assure! Goodluck all!

[taketime]

Oh my!! After 36 years of hard core smoking ( was at 3-4 pks a day!) I finally found every thing I needed to quit. I am about to finish up my 4th day smoke I haven’t started to cough yet. This video scares me as to what might be ahead for me 😵😵. I thought I would die with a smoke in my hand, so to be free of it is truely amazing. I am so grateful.

Done with all forms of smoking thankyou! Please stand with me my sisters and brothers! Let's take back our life and live again! Thank you Jesus! 😭

I quit smoking just 5 days back. From 22 cigarettes on 20th July I had zero cigarettes on 21st. Just think of 1 day at a time. Don't think of longer term. I don't know know how far I will go but will power is everything. And avoid smoker friends and other triggers and keep busy for few days. First 3-4 days are pure torture. Craving is at it's peak. But with each day you feel stronger. Will power is must.

its been 3 months today exactly... needed to watch this to remind myself why i am quitting.
