Default COPD-Fear of the unknown.....................

I was just diagnosed with COPD in January,2007(this year),evidently I've had it for about 9 years without knowing about it.My Doctor just assumed I already knew,until I asked him to test me for it.That's when he realized,I had no idea! So he told me.The bad part is I'm a heavy smoker,and have been the entire time,and now I'm under so much stress with so many different things going wrong in my life at the same time,that my battle with quiting smoking is failing!I've read articles about COPD,and they just scare the **** out of me,but I have so much fear of the unknown,that isn't written in these articles! Is there anyone else here suffering from the same illness,that knows more about it,than the articles tell you!Such as,possible life expectancy without treatment,stuff like that?
