Just checking in for my quit, which starts tomorrow, and hopefully helping get this sub off the ground.

Edit: thanks for the well-wishes everyone. Turns out my wife and I did fight over something stupid, and I smoked, because I'm an idiot. Looking forward to doing it again tomorrow.

Surgical tech and nursing student, here!

We all know smoking isn't healthy, so it feels a little redundant to drive that point, but even as someone who's worked in a clinical environment for years, I gotta say I had no fucking clue just how bad it is until the deep-dive into disease processes my recent education has pushed me through.

Smoking fucks with like everything your body wants to do - it's not just a random cough and the elevated risk of cancer.

Definitely cheering for you!

Eh, that doesn't help when my wife is going apoplectic on me and putting me close to a nervous breakdown.

Sometimes I think I won't be able to quit until we get divorced.

I quit about 13 years ago when I had some external incentives to do so and changed my environment to one that made using very inconvenient.

Best wishes to you. Tomorrow I’m certain I will find myself thinking about you and imagining you being strong and winning your battles and war.
