    This is it

    I have been wanting to quit for a while and I know that smoking doesn’t help my chronic pancreatitis or wrinkles on my face. Sometimes I don’t even want a cigarette and it tastes awful but I still light up. What is wrong with me. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    Smoking Relapse

    I was raised in a family of smokers. My parents, my siblings and now my son, nieces and nephews. My parents are gone now and a few years ago my siblings quit smoking. I finally jumped on the bandwagon but during the Christmas holiday I relapsed. I've been smoking 2-3 cigarettes a day and I know its only a matter of time that I will be back at it. I'm so disappointed in myself and really thought I would make it this time. What has worked for others during a relapse? I want to get back on the....

    An exSmoker shares two secrets

    Tapering off smoking is like behind kind to your cat by cutting a half inch off his tail daily until he is tail-less. Better to just whack it off. Conversely, better to go cold turkey. Once you quit, remember the mantra: "you're only ONE DRAg away from ___ cigs a day." Fill in your personal typical amount. I was three packs a day. Now I am none for a couple of decades. I remain, however, *one drag away from thee packs a day*.

    What is happening to my voice?

    I am 25 years old male. Recently I've been having problems with my voice. My voice tends to squeak and creak and sometimes just disappear when I'm out of breath, tired, or in a stressful situation i.e angry or upset or nervous. This has started happening only recently making it very difficult for me to communicate. For a long period of time i thought it was a bad throat but the problem continues.

    Daily weed smoker, cough with no other symptoms for 3 months... What is it?

    For about 3 years I’ve been smoking weed about once or twice a day from a joint or bong. I never smoke tobacco/blunts, or nicotine vapes. I’m 17 years old, pretty active, and generally healthy. 3 months ago, I got a normal cold, followed by a dry cough. After a couple weeks I began to cough exessive amounts of clear phlegm. Once or twice, there was a little blood in the phlegm. Sometimes, I can’t breath when I cough. I went to the doctor, they said my lungs were clear and prescribed me with an inhaler....
