Hi everyone. My name is Justin and I am a smokaholic and boy is it tough to quit! I never knew! That's to say the least! I had the mind over body willpower, but noone ever told me about the pain that follows quitting.Throat hairs, cilia, filter out debri from air. Smokers burn up the hairs with every puff. Now that I have quit, the hairs are growing back and this causes much irritation. It's a guaranteed infection, from what I have read. These problems and new problems persist for up to a year (not looking foward to seeing everything I cough up in the upcoming weeks) and then health and prosperity will be the horizon.I have been cold turkey for three days now and have been experiencing side effects. First day, I got a sore throat. That night my lymph nod swelled. After the third day I have head aches that could crack a coconut shell, lymph nodes the size of a coconut and tonsils that look like a lost piece of chewing gum. Whew. I can soundly say I am commited to quitting. If I turn back now I know what I have to face the next time I quit. I have found vitamin C, gurgling warm salt water (but not ur fishies') and motrin 800 mg helps. So anybody that is quitting I recommend going shopping before hand because cravings are the least important worries. Any other tips are welcome. Best of Luck to any Quitters!
