Decided to try and quit smoking


So now i'm hooked on Copenhagen, chew, but hell my lungs are dying i have signs of COPD/ephasema, at 49 years old i cant let this continue. 

 so i've cut way back on smoking and feel better already, at least my breathing is better a lot less wheezing and not waking up at night trying to catch my breathe man i dont want to die that death of slow suffocation.

Anyhow addictions a bear! lol

Kicking cigs was harder than anything else. I must have relapsed a hundred or more times.
It is truly 'one is too many and a thousand never enough' but they are a bona fide killer.
You gotta stop smoking ..not an option.
