Welcome to the road to happy destiny. Stay on the path and help others as they help you and you'll make it. You know what's involved in the early part of the quit and if you can make it to three weeks then you can make it all the way with some added support.

Hi Kaitilina, Very pretty name you have there. What happened to you at the 3 week mark and why did you wait 6 months to requit? Answer these questions to get prepared for your new and final quit because if you know what you did before that didn't work, you can put coping skills in place that WILL work this time. Most have quit more than once, but if you are honest with yourself, you do the quit program to your left, and you are prepared, you too can make this your final quit. Congratulations for finding this site! It ROCKS! I know I would not have made it this far without the support and knowledge here. Read lots, post as much as you can, both when you need help and when you can give it. I know for me, giving support and hoorays to others strengthens me and my resolve to stay quit. One day, one hour, one minute at a time, one foot in front of another. You can do it!

Way to go Kait - You already dealt with one big trigger and you are only on your first day! I think that you and Dune will make a great quitting team.

Welcome Kaitilina, You have found a great site for support and advice. Your right the first few days are tough but if you have your coping skills in place (gum, hard candy, straws etc.) and stick close to here you should be good. You will get lots of advice from other people. Everyone wants to help each other. So grab my hand and we will do this one moment at a time. ~Valic [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 11/1/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 5 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 28 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $26.5 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 9 [B]Mins:[/B] 31 [B]Seconds:[/B] 13

Welcome Kait! Sorry I just found this post. I've been a bit scatter-brained lately. On Chantix now and off my patches (my security blanket for the last five months!) It's scary out here in the real world without nicotine! :eg: WE WILL PREVAIL!
