No, not anymore. I was diagnosed in 2018 with COPD and quit, then went back to it for a couple of years. It got to where I was really struggling to breathe, and it just came down to "do I want to smoke or breathe"? I quit smoking right after Christmas in 2021, and am still smoke free. Best decision I made! My lungs are much happier, and I feel lots better.

No, I stopped Feb 17/2016 the day found out I had COPD. Wish I had known that when I started at age 21 what the health effects would be.☹️
