I'm really struggling with quitting smoking and I feel like my willpower just isn't strong enough. Do you have any advice or strategies that could help me? I really want to quit but it's been tough.

I've been dealing with a cough for about a week now, and it's starting to make it hard for me to breathe. Do you have any advice on what I should do?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a respiratory infection. I recommend taking Robitussin or Mucinex to help relieve your cough and improve your breathing. These medications can help loosen mucus and make coughing more productive. Additionally, you may consider using a humidifier at home to help ease your symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, you will need a strong course of antibiotics, for which your need to go to the hospital.

I'm feeling this deep and incomplete breathing at random times during the day, and then I get shortness of breath when exercising. A few months back, I was even coughing up blood for about 34 days, and had something similar happen a year ago. On top of that, I'm having these gastro issues like thick and sticky mucus in my stool every 10 to 20 days. I've lost a bunch of weight, dropping to 79 kg over the past 3 years, and I feel like my growth has stopped. Do you have any idea what's going on with me?
