Success in quitting smoking

Four years ago, I typically smoked about a pack of cigarettes a day.

When the workload became more difficult, I even smoked up to two packs.

And when you smoke cigarettes at dinner gatherings or simple drinking sessions in the evening,

There were also times when I took out a few more and burned them.

The smell of nicotine was present on my head and fingers, to the point that I could even feel it myself.

During that time, I also experienced family quarantine through COVID-19.

I don't smoke at home, but it was difficult not to smoke during the quarantine period...

On the other hand, I also felt really good to be at home with the kids after a long time.

I woke up holding my young daughter and gently smelled her hair.

I can smell a nicotine scent coming from my fingers, so I wonder if it's because of me...

When I looked around with that intention, I found that nicotine can be transmitted to others through contact.

They said they are moving... and since they stay in the same space, unknowingly and unknowingly.

Even in the air...

It was shocking.

 

That I am spreading a bad smell to my beautiful children... and also

Even the bad ingredients will be transferred...

 

 

Suddenly, I remembered something that happened before.

 

One evening at a drinking party, a close younger brother expressed his dedication and also encouraged me.

The reason why they personally transferred to a dedicated position

 

I took the bus on my way home from work.

 

At that time, a man passed by to the neighboring seat.

 

It smelled like cigarette smoke and had a very strong foul odor.

I've never smelled the smell of a decomposing corpse, but I think that's probably what it would be like.

It was so shocking that I changed to a dedicated staff who doesn't smell like cigarettes.

Thanks to my younger sibling, I also tried a few dedicated tasks that I hadn't even considered before.

I felt my throat was more sore, so I gave up on the dedicated care.


So, I kept smoking at the beginning of the year...

The smell of nicotine soaked into my fingers...

I thought this wasn't right..

So, I went to the public health center to apply for the smoking cessation program.

I also looked at stories of people who successfully quit smoking and thought about it very seriously, very sincerely.

Just something like deciding to quit every year, not just a fleeting resolve...

People who successfully quit smoking seem to naturally keep the cigarettes they used to smoke.

Many people are quitting smoking.

I always have the urge, but I don't do it. I don't do it by my own will. It's right in front of me, but I don't do it.

He is holding it in his mouth but not lighting it.

I also tried it.

And the smoking cessation pipe provided by the public health center.

It's quite helpful. Nicotine patches? I shared all of them with my acquaintances...

I thought that putting something like that on is the same as smoking cigarettes...

3 months ... up to 4 months was a bit difficult...

Enduring until 100 days was difficult, and from then on

Strange symptoms started to appear..

I also disliked cigarette smoke even when I was a smoker.

When I smell cigarette smoke somewhere, it feels like a savory aroma.

Sniff sniff...

Still holding on... Holding on because good days will come...

After washing the kids at home, I dry them and then smell my daughter's hair.

It still hurts... My heart aches for our beloved daughter, whom I love so much.

A dad who transfers nicotine or something...

I can smell the nicotine on my fingers, and I sigh.

It's been six months... I wonder if the smell from my finger has finally gone away.

It won't come off. I still smell nicotine on my hands.

However, I can somewhat endure smoking. Whether people around me smoke or not.

It doesn't hurt much. I also came back and forth to the health center and regularly received assistance.

Afterwards, I received the InBody body composition analysis.

I felt a sense of achievement or something similar.

Since then, I have not smoked cigarettes up to now.

It has been three years.

Quitting smoking helps prevent colds from occurring easily, and

The phlegm-like thing has disappeared...

My breathing has improved significantly compared to before.

Even if I wander around mountains or parks like before

There is no smell of blood inside the lungs or mouth.

It was all because of cigarettes...

I never want to be near that useless cigarette again.

I feel sorry for those who smoke cigarettes while walking on the street.

I truly regret having smoked cigarettes for over ten years, as they are completely useless.

    금연 성공하는거 진짜 어렵다고 하던데
    저는 길거리에서 담배 피는 사람들 보면 너무 혐오스럽고 가까이 가기도 싫어요
    어서 빨리 금연 인구가 더 늘었으면 하는 바램입니다
    금연에도 성공하고 건강도 찾고 절약되 되고 
    금연 성공 진짜 축하드려요

      맞아요 그냥 독도 아니고 천천히 모든 걸 가져가는 독이죠~ 그걸 돈주고 사서 피웠다는게 이제는 많이 후회가 됩니다. 그 돈으로 할 수 있는게 너무 많았을텐데...

    아자아자~ 제 남편도 지금 육년찹니다. 곧 만 칠년 됩니다. 2025.1.1 ㅎㅎㅎ
    제 남편은 제가 아플때 끊었는데 아직도 주변 어디선가 담배냄새 나면 그리 구수하다네요. 주변 사람들이 독한 놈이라고 놀리기도 하구요. 아마 님께도 담배 끊는 독종이랑은 상종을 말라면서 놀리는 지인들이 있을거예요. 그럴 수록 더더욱 인내심 유지하셔서 영원한 금연 이루시길 바랍니다. ^^

      와 만칠년이면 이미 비흡연자시네요.. 담배를 끊는 사람을 질투하기에 독종독종하는거죠.. 뭐.. 저도 한참 필때는 끊은 사람들 보고 마찬가지로 놀렸답니다. 근데 끊은 입장이 되어보니.. 그냥 의지의 차이였던 거죠.... 좋은 말씀 감사합니다~
