It's really true, Riverdale, your chances of quitting are way better since you've found this site. I have learned so much from these grand quitters....they are the best. Don't worry too much about the physical symptoms. I'm no spring chicken and I promise you all of this will pass. Takes time and your body is healing. Chances are you've been smoking for many years. Congratulations on a great decision!

Congratulation Phillip. You are almost through hell week. It's the hardest week of a quit. I think that all of us share in your opinion that we could not have survived all the days we have smoke free if it hadn't been for the inspiration and the assistance of the others on this site. I have made some of the best friends I have ever known here. People that are real that I know are there for me in my darkest hour no matter what. NOPE is how we all survive. One day at a time. Welcome to our little quit family. It's the greatest place on earth to quit smoking.

Congrats on getting through your first week, Riverdaleman! I have to agree with you on this site! It was my rock for quite some time. It's not the experienced quitters that make the site, it's not the 'newbies', and it's not the moderators. It's the combo of having someone going through it with you, someone who went through it before you, and someone quiding you through it. The sharing of sorrows along with the hope for the future! So keep strong, keep close, and keep smoke-free! We CAN do this!

Riverdale, Sounds like you are heading in the right direction on becoming a successful quitter. The most common questions when quitting smoking is dealing with withdrawal symptoms. Each smoker has different withdrawal symptoms indeed yours will be unique! Although they may be unpleasant, they do pass. When you experience withdrawal symptoms, remind yourself that each symptom is a sign of recovery. Your body is in the process of healing itself. Think of withdrawal symptoms as growing pains. You are doing great, so please let us know if we can help, Keep Strong, Josie ______________________ The SSC Support Team.
