Wrong forum but,this happens if you stop now.
1=After 20 minutes ,blood pressure and pulse rate return to normal.Cirulation improves in hands and feet.Making them warmer.
2=After 8 hours ,oxygen levels in the blood return to normal.chances of a heart attack start to fall.
3=After 24 hours,Carbon monoxide is eliminated from the body .The lungs start to clear out mucous and other debris.
4=After 48 hours,Nicotine is no longer detectable in your body.The ability to taste and smell is improved.
5=After 72 hours,breathing becomes easier as the bronchial tubes relax,energy levels increase.
6=2 to 12 weeks,circulation improves throughout the body,making walking easier.
7=3 to 9 months,Breathing problems such as cough,shortness of breath,and wheezing improve,overall.lung function is increased by 5% -10 %
8=After 5 years,Risk of a heart attack falls about half that of a non smoker.
9=After 10 years,risk of lung cancer falls to about half of that found in a smoker.risk of a heart attack falls to about the same as someone who has never smoked.

Everyone talks doom and gloom when they talk about smoking.
i found a sheet of paper this morning that was 30 years old,and i realized that what i posted up top was a different way to tackle smoking. nobody ever tells you the benefits of stopping .SO I HOPE THIS THREAD HELPS. Who knows, perhaps i may even quit myself.AND ITS NOT THE END OF WORLD IF I FAIL , its just a way of telling smokers that it can be easy to quit when they realize the benefits of stopping.   |

Depends on how long and how many you used to smoke, my uncle started as a kid and smoked for 40 years before giving up for the last 20 odd years of his life, got to 70 years old before COPD got him, brutal, struggling for every breath, slowly suffocating to death.
Watching someone suffering from that cruel illness should be enough to get one or two to stop. |

started work at 15 and bought a pack of 5....40 years of 20-40 a day and stopped 6 months before smoking ban came in,i bought a carton of 200 and vowed to quit when they were done.Never touched one since. |

never smoked before, the smell of cigarette smell was so bad for me I never went near it, have to stop in the street if some addict is walking in front of me smoking, or walk past them fast so it doesn't blow in my face, inconsiderate mugs. Should be banned in public. Cigarette butts every where as well. Mother Mes gave up aged 50 on the nose, 12 years later hasn't smoked since, this off of the back of her dad, Grandfather mes, dying of lung cancer in his early 70's - even when dripped to the eyeballs in morphine, he was still in agony, as duffy says, if you've ever seen that, you really would think twice, it is a humiliating and degrading way to go especially for a proud man, he had to be changed by the nurses and had to have water poured into his mouth as he no longer had the strenth to do even that, lost weight incredibly quick, I remember when he went to hold the cup of water on the drawer next to his bed, as if he wanted to pick it up himself, he couldn't, I went to pick the cup up for him and he wouldn't let ago, but as an act of defiance to show he still had some strength left or maybe to express his anger, squeezing the plastic up as hard as he could, with water pouring out everywhere.
Never let the government tell you they care about your health when they allow cigarettes to be sold in the first place, there is no nutrional value in them whatsoever and contain thousands of toxic chemicals including rat poisoining. Don't smoke. Kind Regards. |

if you were older you would understand about smoking,it use to be advertised as glamorous and cool to smoke.
70 years ago everyone had an open fire in their house,there was no such thing as central heating ,it was oil fires and petrol stoves .times have changed ,but in those days nobody realized they were doing harm to themselves  . |

Lost my wife 2 weeks ago. She had pancreatic cancer, was diagnosed 18 months ago, couldn't operate on her because she had copd from smoking all her life. Wasn't stong enough for chemo. When diagnosed she actually started smoking more cos 'it didn't matter'. Both copd and pancreatic cancer listed as her cause of death.Give it up people, it's not worth it.

You have to stop in the street if someone is smoking in front of you? That’s a bit extreme. I wouldn’t be surprised if the cars driving by you would cause more damage.
I’m guessing you’re too young to have even been in a pub when smoking was allowed? We won’t mention buses, cinemas or planes! |

very Hard to pack up Once addicted

By:
finally stopped for good in 2007, had several unsuccessful attempts previously. It's so addictive because it's so habit forming. I'm glad vaping wasn't a thing then, because I'm sure I'd have gone onto that and still be doing it

That would’ve coincided with the pub smoking ban, EAW. Coincidence or planned?
I don’t know about others, but we had non smokers coming outside the pub when the ban first kicked in who ended up smoking themselves. |
|
By:
coincidence, i didn't remember it precisely coinciding with that maybe it was late 2006 I stopped in fact, funny to think I can't even remember that precisely now. I was on nicotine lozenges for about a year
but it definitely made it easier that it wasn't so in your face on nights out. Also funny to think when growing up with it permitted everywhere. Kings Cross fire did for the underground. I remember smoking in the back of planes, upstairs in buses, designated carriages on trains, everywhere really |

Mac, sincere condolences to you
I've never been a cigarette smoker but always liked a cigar, ever since the mid 70s when they had the Hamlet tins behind the bar... But, never got addicted to them, I can have 10 cigars a day for a month, then not have any for a year... I guess as you don't inhale like ciggies, they are not as addictive? No scientific evidence, just my experience |

A pack of 20 cigs in Ireland cost 17 euro at this moment in time. that's 6205 euro a year for a 20 a day smoker.
its a lot of money going up in smoke.i wonder do anyone ever think about this. a guy could do a lot with six grand.that's another benefit for a guy who decides to quit. |

I smoked for 30 odd years but use a vape now. About 90+% cheaper and most of the other bad (manky) things about smoking are gone. Can't be as bad for health as smoking either.

There are all kids of chemicals in vapes
Do a bit of research |

When I went from smoking to vaping my persistent cough completely disappeared within a week or two. That alone made the switch worthwhile.

If you've never smoked, don't vape instead. If you've smoked then vaping is the much lesser of two evils. Neither are good for you, one is 'healthier' than the other - healthy being a relative term.

Some people say that when a smoker gives up smoking for good,they cross an invisible line .a sort of miracle happens.
one minute they are a smoker and the next minute they are a non smoker. |

Vaping tobacco came from nicked technology from vapes for weed/oils which kicked off early 00's. I said when they started that the issue will be that they say the flavours are ok for food and passed health tests but they didn't test when inhaling and heated. I believe those tests are/have coming out and the jury is very much out on the health benefits of supersourcherry-grapemudpieberry put it that way.

I’d guess vaping is far safer than smoking. It could be twenty years or more though before we really know what affects the vape has on the body.

I smoked for 13 years. Recently passed the 6-year abstinence mark.

You don't vape tobacco. You vape liquid. They extract pure nicotine from tobacco leaves and mix it with flavours. They also extract nicotine salicylate (nicotine salt) and mix it with flavours, which is much smoother on the throat and the flavours are much better.

biggest problem with vaping (apart from it making you look a bit of a t**) is the amount of unregulated stuff that ended up on the market - though they are doing a bit more on that..
|

By:
It's a cruel irony of smoking that the thing you're addicted to - nicotine - isn't that harmful. It's a bit like caffeine in that there is a harmful amount, but you'd be as sick as a dog before you ever got anywhere near that amount.
