The special reasons for my quit (Gary)
Question:
Yeah I know, made myself cry too. I know I’m getting depressed when I watched Home Alone 2 and I so wanted to cry when the kid meets up with his mom at Rockafeller (?sp) Square. I’ve seen the movie 3 or 4 times, but now I’m getting emotional on the smallest trigger. Can someone spare a Pamprin? Gary —
In the first quit I had, I used to watch adverts on TV and cry. As for a movie with a sad/happy ending…forget it! I was a blubbering wreck! <<<Gary Hang in there Paula

Thanks for sharing as well Gary. Hope your still is going alright still. Robin. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – (maybe we could all take a moment and post a thread on your reasons for your quit) My special reasons for my quit… I’m 42 and I feel like shit. It just keeps getting worse and worse every year. It’s more than just smoking, but smoking is most of it. I’ve seen first hand what it’s like to die from cancer. I loved Dorothy so much… And I fear this kind of death most of all. I could not continue to lie to myself anymore. Smoking was slowly killing me. I want to live be cause I’m too chicken to die. Gary Tic toc, tic toc… It’s been One week, four days, 23 hours, 22 minutes and 11 seconds since I quit CT. I’ve not smoked some 275 cigarettes, saving me about $37.18 so far. My life expectancy has been extended by about 22 hours, 55 minutes. (No, I’m not Super Man, thought I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.)

In some ways, I see your quit as a tribute to Dorothy…she wouldn’t want you to have to go through the same kind of suffering that she did. My special reasons…well there are many. I have a lovely husband who truly takes care of me and adores me. I want to be with him for a very long time. Also, I had a good friend called Chris. My first ever boyfriend, and a friend for half of my life. I helped nurse him as he died from metastised melanoma…he was a smoker too, which wouldn’t have helped his chances. And like you, I was tired of feeling awful, feeling weak, feeling out of control of my own life. Hugs Paula
