[mothered]

I quit smoking 2-3 years ago, it's an excellent decision. I remember after the first couple months breathing was much better. I went cold turkey and it was worth it. Try not to stay on the gum/patches too long, if you can avoid it.

I did the same around 14 years ago and haven't had a single puff to date.

I also went cold turkey, but fell very sick thereafter. My doctor actually said I should've used patches, and that It was a mistake to stop abruptly. On-topic, my resolution Is to put 2020 behind and make a fresh, healthy and prosperous start to the New Year.
