Welcome Lil(Free104)
I wish you good luck and congratulate you for making it this far. The first seven days are so hard that anyone who gets through them should get a purple heart, a million dollars, or at least a lifetime of happiness-lol. I will have quit two weeks as of tomorrow. Let me tell you that you are in for a rough ride. The bright side, and trust me, there is a truly beautiful bright side, is that when you get past the first seven to ten days you will be so happy and proud you cant even imagine! ;p You will need a ton of support if you are like most of us who have already made it through the beginning. I didnt have any true support at home. My friends and this wonderful website made all the difference. You'll be shocked that there are strangers out there that are truly rooting for you and will be the best shoulders for you to cry on, afterall they know what it's like! :eg:
Good luck with your goal of becoming a non-smoker. You can do it if I did! I didnt even want to quit because I loved smoking so much. I only quit because I had promised my daughter I would. For years, I told her I would quit when I turned 40. Then all of a sudden, I was a week away from my promised date and I was panicking. I was fortunate, heck, I was truly lucky that I stumbled on SSC. Again, good luck. We will be here 24 hours a day when you need us :) Denisey
