Hey, I started smoking at age 19 and decided to quit at age 21 I have been without a cigarette for over a year now. I was a pack a day smoker. And to be blunt, I was also smoking marijuana through a bong apparatus daily for 9 of the last months before the end. That tends to really affect the bottom half of your lungs. I quit both simultaneously cold turkey. I realize i wasn't smoking for particulary long which im sure would make a difference. But I found this to not be all that difficult, there was about 3 months that were hard. but truthfully I have faced much harder obsticles in my life, I am actually slightly suprised of the lack of self control many people have. Then again I could never have imagined myself smoking for 20 years or so that is a mighty long time. I have no idea how long it will take me to recover and I am not too worried about it. I am just happy to reduce my risk of Emphysema.
