Hey walkingeadle, attaboygirl, and all the rest of the clover patch (March 05 quitters)!
Logged in this morning and was amazed to see we've reached 11 months quit! I don't know about all of you....but I am sooooo excited about coming up on the year mark! :p
This has been an amazing journey and I feel blessed to have spent it at the SSC.
We're gonna make it!
Woohooooo!

hiya bleu! [color=Purple]~huggggs~[/color] I'm so glad you dropped in! You are on my mind alot so I love to hear how you're doing! You've been a inspiration to alot of us. You are special! Congrats again on a smoke-free year!
Melissa, the beauty of this site is it works for the talkers and the silent type, the whiners and the macho men (& women ;) ), the cold turkeys and the warm turkeys. In other words, their is no such thing as selfish here. Everything is given freely out of love and concern. We all take what we need and leave what we can't use. We give when we can or when we feel compelled. Congrats to you also on your one year!

woohooo daniel! way to go! everyone here loves a quitter!
now that you made the decision, make yourself a plan, okay? If you haven't already, go through the program over there on the left. It really helps with your motivation and also guides you through understanding the addiction and how to conquer it.
come in here and read, read, post and read and post some more!
We CAN do this!

this site never ceases to amaze me! I love all you guys and gals!
Our friend is so blessed to have found a support system like this (as we all are blessed). I wish her strength and determination. I wish her the epiphany I had where you realize that at this point in time you will be miserable whether you smoke or not.
You see, as long as you smoke, you will continue to want to quit. You will continue to suffer mini-craves as long as you feed the addiction and major craves when you quit. BUT when you stick with it....it get's better, the craves will someday end.
We CAN do this!

hey Eady! This journey really sucks, doesn't it? The good news, it does get better! Thanks to tossing the smokes (good job for trashing them!), you've just about made it through hell week! Think about it...if you smoke again, you'd have to go through this again! And you know you would, because you don't want to be a smoker. that's why you made the choice to quit! Wouldn't that be a hoot?!
So just keep on hanging in. One crave, one day at a time. And next time you feel those feets headed for the door....(don't break your legs) just come on in here and post away!
We CAN do this!

Hi Tenielle,
I do understand what you're saying. Take a look at a post I made last March. It's in the 'avoiding relapse' section. It was right after I started this forever quit. I had a failed attempt in January last year. It failed in part for the reasons you have right now.
There is hope Tenielle. Step back, get the medical help you need, learn all you can, make a plan, and start fresh.
You can do this and we'll be here to help!
