Hey everyone! It’s Colin here, and I wanted to share my journey of quitting smoking, which I’ve successfully done for over 4 weeks now!
My motivation came from a tough diagnosis—leukemia. Living alone for a long time, I struggled with quitting, but everything changed when I reached out to the Wakefield Stop Smoking Service. Their support has been incredible!
Initially, I faced some challenges like headaches and fatigue. My advisor kept checking my carbon monoxide levels, which were surprisingly high despite my efforts to quit. I even told my son not to smoke in my house when he visits, but I couldn’t understand why my readings were off.
Then, my advisor suggested checking my boiler. After calling in a maintenance guy, we discovered that my boiler was faulty and hadn’t been serviced in over 3 years! After a thorough servicing, I started feeling much better and my sleep improved significantly.
At my next appointment, I was thrilled to see my C.O. reading drop from 12 to 3! I can’t express how grateful I am for the guidance I received. Quitting smoking has brought me so many health benefits, and I’m breathing a lot better now.
If you’re struggling to quit, don’t hesitate to reach out for support. It makes all the difference!
