Learning to Quit

If you have been smoking for a while these lung cancer pictures are not enough to get you to quit.

I don't think that giving you the story of my uncles death from smoking will get you to quit either. You have heard it all before.

So, I will give you sources that have been made to show you why you should quit, and how to quit.

    Every smoker should see these pictures. And we should know lungs are not the only organ affected. There is also skin as most visible of all. Smokers look older and they really are older (by all measurable performances), so this kind of info would be of great benefits for every non smoker who thinks about starting...
    Disgusting pictures for good cause... Thumbs up!

    Thanks for the photos. I'll try to link these to my squidoo page on radon gas. If you live with radon gas, and you smoke, the chances are much higher that you'll get lung cancer.

    Well, if I had not quit smoking 30 years ago, I would definitely stop after reading this.

    This lens is awesome. I've never understood the whole smoking thing but I do understand the nicotine addiction. Realistically, smoking was not that devastating of a health issue 100 years ago before cigarette companies started loading tobacco up with 100s of known toxic chemicals. But we all know smoking in general is playing Russian roulette with your health.

    Lung cancer is the number one killer cancer in the United States. I lost my uncle to lung cancer last year but he refused to quit smoking. I know lung cancer can be reversed but it requires the will power to do so. It all revolves around a mind-set. Quitting is the first obvious step but there is more to it which I have written about extensively.

    This Video & lens has truely freaked me out. I am a smoker of 17 years. Because of this info I have quit smoking cold turkey and seriously don't crave smoking like I normally do. Now that I understand what I have done to my body, the choice not to smoke is not that hard and it is now day 3 of being a non smoker. Next stop is the doctors for exrays, tests, or whatever can be done to find out thwhat damage I have caused. Thank You..Squidoo

    Great lens. Horribly difficult to look at, but that's the point. I can't understand how people can see this and still smoke...

    I quit smoking almost 2 weeks ago after smoking for 18 years. I am now 30 with 2 children and it has been enough. Those pic make me happy that I quit and am going to do my best to never start again! Very scary and informative.

    This was a difficult lens to read, but it's so important to put out the ugly truth about smoking. It's so hard for those "die-hard" smokers. At least today there are some alternatives that make it easier to quit. Thanks for being so "graphic!".

    I quit using an e-cig. It really worked for me when nothing else did. I'm glad I made the effort now. I breathe so much better.

    Great lens! As an ex-smoker (12 years and counting), I'm glad I quit. Had I seen this lens sooner, I would have given up smoking right then and there.
