scO, after many tries at quitting, the thing that got me stopped was when I had the flu a year ago Dec. It turned into pneumonia, couldn't get to doctor or hospital due to roads closed by avalanches so just had to tuff it out. My chest was so full that I couldn't say more than two words without stopping to gasp. Walking more than a few feet was out of the question. All this brought back memories of my dad near the end of his life- he had enphysema. All I could think was that I didn't want to end up like him or be tied to an oxygen tank the rest of my life.
You can do it if the right motivation is there.
