Same here, I was "lucky" in one sense as I developed severe asthma as a toddler which stuck with me into adulthood and made smoking a complete no-no. My dad died of lung cancer at 51 and he wasn't that heavy a smoker, maybe 20-a-day tops, as he rarely smoked at home.Never touched one myself, cannot bear the smell or sight of them.
Then again quitting is absolutely doable, my mum smoked heavily from her mid teens, but stopped overnight completely aged 54, when she died from lung cancer ...
That kind of luck you can do without!Same here, I was "lucky" in one sense as I developed severe asthma as a toddler which stuck with me into adulthood and made smoking a complete no-no.

I share your pain, I stopped 16 years ago and put on 6 stone and can't stop chewing gum.Stopped 10 year ago and put on about 5 stone, now i need something to hell me stuffing my fat face ;)
I was born at home and so my first breath and every one till i was seventeen was smoke filled , left home as soon as i could and rarely visited , it was vileMum died aged 40 of lung cancer when I was 14.
That aside I hated growing up with that disgusting smell in the house.
To some extent yeah I know.You have replaced one addiction with another.
