What’s the word breh, you good?
It’s emphysema and not likely cancer. Emphysema isn’t good, but it’s a lot better than cancer
So, I've been drinking for about 2 weeks. It's been good for me. The sad thing is, I'm only good when I drink. I knew that before, but this recent drinking has confirmed it 
I got 2 dates lined up for next week off the strength of me drinking to make contact with these girls. It's a tough situation. Do I drink and have a life, or do I stop and be a loner? Life sucks sometimes. At least there's Spider-man 2 tomorrow

You
you drink to get the courage to go after the girls but then the quality of girl you attract when drinking is less than ideal. But when you are sober you can’t deal with these harsh realities so you stay to yourselfSo, I've been drinking for about 2 weeks. It's been good for me. The sad thing is, I'm only good when I drink. I knew that before, but this recent drinking has confirmed it
fukk these harsh realities. I was about to kill myself, no cap. I don't know what to do with my life. It's either I drink and be happy, but have the health consequences because I don't know when to stop, or I'm sober and a shut in. There really is no inbetween.You

Avada Kedavbreh!
First off its gone be ok breh. Unless u an absolutely evil sob u got nothing to fear from the afterlife. At best u headed to paradise and at worst, eternal rest(which to me does not seem very much unlike paradise).So, I've been 5 years sober. I've developed a cough and started coughing up blood. I went to the CT scan place today, and the doctor emailed me saying I need to set up an appointment to discuss the results. When the results are fine, she never asks me to make an appointment. I'm expecting the worst. I've had chest pains and sweating, along with the blood. We thought it was my heart, but it turned out to be fine. I'm pretty sure it's my lungs. Now with this appointment, I fear I have lung cancer. I guess smoking is, in fact, bad for you.
I went to the liquor store and picked up some high alcohol IPA and some whisky barrel aged Stout. Being drunk is awesome. If I'm going to die in a year, I'm gonna drink in the evenings. Now I just gotta figure out my will. I guess if I do have lung cancer, I gotta get surgery or chemo. I'm debating on if I should just kill myself in some alloted time or wait for the inevitable end that cancer provides.
I lived a good life until like 5 years ago. Getting sober was great for me, because I had a problem, but it was also bad for me. I stopped hanging out with people, I stopped socializing. I dunno, this shyt makes you think. If I drop dead in 6 months, it'll be fine. I lived what I lived and discovered absolute infinity.Death is not the end. Still, it's scary. What if I'm wrong, and death really is the end. What if there is nothing after death?
I've been watching a lot of TV recently, and this show I just watched, Magpie Murders, has the main character die of lung cancer. shyt hit home. It feels like the stars are aligning.
As far as the smoking, based on context clues im assuming we talking tobacco. Let me put u onto a little something that worked for my brother, and is now working for me:
Injectable Naltrexone for Smoking Cessation | Rho Chi Post

For added benefit ask them to start u on a low dose bupropion as well. It will be gradual at first. U will notice urself reaching for the lighter less and less. Then all of the sudden u may realize its been days since the last time u smoked and u aint even think about it til now.
And listen dont set urself up for failure by thinking its gotta be all or nothing. Every smoke u avoid is a victory. And every victory counts.
Drink if u really have to the important thing is to get u off the nicotine right now. If u need help getting back on the wagon later thats a bridge we can cross when we get there.
In the mean time i would say to take some personal inventory and live each day like its the last, cause truthfully we all dying from the moment we are born. Its not about how u die, but how u lived. Live well breh.

You were sober for 5 years. That is a long time! Then you broke your sobriety because of the fear of an imminent death due to lung cancer. But then you find out that it’s emphysema & not a death sentence. The mind is something else!
Yeah, it's vaping nicotine. I'm gonna ask my doctor about that shyt. Part of me is fine with death, as I don't have to deal with existence, but part of me wants to live. It's a hard situation., I'm a few beers in and about to pop a lunesta. If I die, I die. If I don't, I got these dates next week.
Yeah, I was sober for a long time. It's been a trip drinking again. It sucks I broke my sobriety, but...whatever. I was a dry drunk to be honest. I shut myself off from the world. I need to find a happy medium, but I don't think one exists.

)And yeah definitely look into that shot and the bupropion shyt worked for me and my bruh and we was like 2 packs a day deep at one point. Before long u wont even be thinking bout vaping like that.
Yeah, I feel you. It's a trade off. I gotta figure this shyt out. I'll look into that shyt. I really need to stop vaping.Yeah i feel ya breh completely.
