Quitters 2007 and withdrawls

17 years ago 0 +0 / -0 84

Glad to see my non-smoking future laid out in front of me. "The New Years Resolvers". This site and the support are more than helpful, your all a blessing. Sorry to sound so corny, but it's true. Ready for a sports reference: With out the complete effort of the entire team, winning would not be possible. I know we have to fight this crap on our own, but it sure is nice having teammates like you.

Gonnadoit- I feel pretty good, no more stomach issues...for now. It's getting easier and tougher at the same time. The cravings are starting to go away, but my mind keeps telling me to watch out. This is the dangerous time for me. This is when I'll slip. It won't be today! I WILL NOT SMOKE TODAY.

Hey all I would stay on here more but for some reason the computer is one of my last triggers that I am having a problem with. Tried to go without step 2 patch since yesterday and at about 3 today I had to put one on. Am having a problem with skin problems due to the sticky stuff on the patch. I will hang in there and not smoke!!!!!

Littlebit you're doing great! I sat at this site for the entire first week. I'm proud of you and thankful that I can pop in here for support when I get a few seconds.

Feel like I'm suddenly in a roomful of strangers, but the sentiment is surely universal: those of us who, by the grace of whatever we deem holy, have managed to remain nicotine free, might OCCASIONALLY allow ourselves a victory dance in the privacy of this site, but would never dream of public self-congratulation. (Well, maybe I should speak only for myself, huh?) Me, I claim zero credit for this quit; I could not have done it without a TON of drugs, the support of this site and the incredible people who live here, my incredible family, and my own particular brand of spirituality, in which my own Higher Power agreed to serve as sort of an On-Star button (She can be SUCH a good sport!); when things got crazy and out of control, I just pushed the button, and boom: help was on the other end of the line. Was in a church meeting just tonight where the leadership was trying to congratulate me on an approaching 3-month-old quit (well, 12 weeks, not always the same thing), and I was like, "I am SO not proud of myself;" we accept praise for the decision to stop a slow suicide? What's wrong with this picture? I'm with you all -- without the support of people (and pharmaceuticals --- YAY DRUGS!!!), this quit would be as ancient as my last Partrige Family album. Credit to everything and everyone pulling me outside of myself --- peteg [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 10/30/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 80 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 4,048 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $440 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 14 [B]Hrs:[/B] 18 [B]Mins:[/B] 53 [B]Seconds:[/B] 11

Littlebit, If you need a break, please take it. Know that we are always here if you need us. Also be sure to consult your pharmacist or doctor if you are experiencing side effects as a result of wearing the patch. Danielle ______________________ The SSC Support Team

Little, Thanks for sharing and know that it can make a difference in someone else's quit. You have made it through Hell and Heck week and this is commendable. Congratulations, Josie _____________________ The SSC Support Team.
