I'm new

Hello again  We support each other in our quest to stop smoking. You are using the forum in exactly the way it was intended. I am here to support you in your quit as the other members are here as well. They say it normally takes about 7 trys before a person stops smoking for good. Looks like you're right on schedule. If you're craving try drinking cold water or going outside and breathing fresh air. Post and read posts. Someone will say the exact thing you need to hear. Sometimes we just need to vent. If you're having a hard time stay close and post often. Don't cave to the crave. breather 29 Addict 0

round number 3- desperate to quit- HELP

Hello Petruchki  Hungry , angry , lonely , and tired. Maybe we could add to that list of things that will start us back smoking again. How about hurt or slighted. A bruised ego maybe ? These are the things that will send us back if we let them. A broken shoelace is a surefire way to start smoking again if you don't have the tools to deal with it. At the very least a replacement lace is necessary. What works for me might not work for anyone else but I'll tell you what does work for me. It's so simple that given time everyone else would have thought of it as well. If I don't smoke a cigarette I never have to go through withdrawal again , ever. It's being able to see past today in the respect of if I smoke today I'll be a smoker tomorrow. Imagine never having to go through withdrawal again. It's the whole package not just that one cigarette. It's where it leads to and being able to see it. Full circle right back where we came from. All those nasty reasons that were the reason we wanted to stop in the first place. I think this is important so I'll say it one more time. We never have to go through nicotine withdrawal again , ever , if we don't want to. It really is that simple. We can do this. breather 36 Addict 0

I blew my quit but I'm back to try again!!

Hi dasiegrl  The shame is in not coming back , in not trying. It takes courage to say we messed up. Looks like misery's going to have a lot of company New Years Day. Remember that as long as we don't smoke we'll never have to go through withdrawal again , ever. Welcome back. breather 36 Addict 0

Hey Rock  Excellent. It's not only the allmost $1,000.00 you've saved but the nearly 5,000 cigarettes you haven't smoked. You've put a lot of effort into your quit and it shows. Congrats on 120 days of smobriety. breather 38 Addict 0
