Ryan, Welcome to the group. This is a great place to receive support. You can ask questions or just come to vent. The main thing is to never take one puff again. It is an addiction! Like you I had quit several times. Each time I learned something that I put into action. I truly believe that it was my past failures that have led to my beat quit ever.

G'Day, I know how you feel Ryan, as most of us,if not all here would know,I've tried a lot of times as well,8 mths was the longest.This is going to be the final one,it's only been a few days I stopped at 6:30 pm 25 Apr(but because of the time difference it shows up a day short)I'm in the land down under. When I get tempted I just remind myself the reason I want to give up smoking,that is Breath better,walk without getting out of breath,and get some colour back into my skin,it's only been 4 days and I feel so good. This may sound stupid,but I feel taller :) anyway it's good to know that I have here to come to when ever I get the urge.Cheers [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 4/26/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 2 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 71 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $22 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 14 [B]Mins:[/B] 10 [B]Seconds:[/B] 30

Welcome Ryan. There is one important question you need to ask : Do you want to quit more than you want to smoke? This is key to being successful. You have definitely come to the right place for support. Read, do the workbook stuff and read some more - educate yourself about this addiction and then jump on in! - Freemom [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/29/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 28 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 347 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $114.24 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 2 [B]Hrs:[/B] 16 [B]Mins:[/B] 12 [B]Seconds:[/B] 25
