Hi -
I posted this to another thread but after I read it, it really meant something to me. I thought I'd share my sincere thoughts with new quitters or folks who are just having a bad day.
This is what I think everytime I want to smoke...
I think that if I take just one puff, for whatever lame reason that my pea-brain can come up with, I will be at a pack or two a day in less than a few days. At that point, I will decide to smoke the rest of my life, which should be over real soon because I will probaby die of a smoking-related heart attack or stroke in the next few years. Then I think that even if I survive the heart attack or stroke, I'll be dragging an oxygen tank around with me the rest of my miserable life.
That's why I don't smoke. Because I'm an addict and that's where one more puff will take me.

Printing this and putting it in my girls weekend bag...excellent post, Sometimes we just have to be honest. I forget about the stroke risk with smoking...I've been so focuesed on the lungs, and COPD and Lung Cancer...But a stroke can leave you disabled, in a wheel chair...drooling and wearing diapers. NOPE....not worth the puff!
