Well congrats. I really hope you make it. I would love to see a study done. I have this theory that if you start smoking young enough the body gets so used to the drug that when you quit you do more harm then good. But you never see studies on that. The reason I have this idea is not cause I smoke. But because I have seen so many people who have quit only to get cancer a few years later. My mom, 2 uncles, friend, co worker and my next door neighbor. All these people started smoking in there teens and then decided to quit once they pasted their 30's. Then you get my grand mother and grandfather. Both smoked every day and nothing happened. She lived to be 93 and he 87.
I'm not saying smoking is good for you by a long shot. I'm just saying I have this strange feeling the body can adapt at young ages and once you make a drastic change to an older system the results are worse then if you kept smoking. But I'll never see that study nor would anyone ever put up funding for it, let alone publish the results if I was correct. Ok now everyone bash me lol and while your bashing read text over my avatar. lol
But seriously good luck to you, hang in there.
