That is so cool, a brand newbie sandwiched right between 2 of our longest long-timers! Another reason I heart this place, everybody has something to say & everyone is valued.

[quote] Few people even scratch the surface, much less exhaust the contemplation of their own experience. [/quote] So I thought I'd hang around and share and give what I could to the community. So many people gave alot of help to Pete when she really needed it and I am forever grateful. This also helped me and of course there were my super hero mentors Lolly, Rusty and Ros.

Great topic unhooked! I have never been much of an message board person - not at all. Why sit in front of a computer when I don't have to anymore - well, when I decided to quit I knew I needed help - and not from my husband (who has never smoked) or family (that I couldn't be brutally honest with) - I needed people who knew what it was like and could help me when I needed it and tell me to cowboy up when I needed that too. This is the place! I was sooo impressed with the program information and it has been invaluable to me these last five days. Get used to me folks - I plan on being here a long, long time!

I've been on these boards so often saying how wonderful SSC is, and how it changed and saved my life. I did a lot of research before I quit and visited lots of sites to help people quit....I came on here and was immediately hit between the eyes by something so different from anywhere else. Here I found an empathy with others and a feeling of belonging all within a couple of posts. What a place!

That's so true, aloha! When I first came here, I was amazed at the quits that seemed long to me, like 50 - 180 days or so & those people still calling themselves newbies. It was amazing because so few of my own quits ever went that long. But we do see it all the time here & we do see so much joy associated with it. Let's always remember to celebrate that!

....because it gave me models to follow, information i didn't know before, coping strategies to use, a much better understanding of what this addicition and quitting is about, a feeling of support when times were hard, and a place to go where even if I'm not understood, I'm accepted. In another thread someone was congratulating another member on being 200 days smoke-free, and said something about it's a feat few accomplish. And it hit me that around here it is so common-place that I had forgotten that oftentimes when people attempt to quit they fail. Seeing so many people successfully, and often joyfully, quit smoking, makes it seem easy.

Thanks for jumping in, everybody. Great, positive, quit-affirming answers! This thread has made me think, though, & I think this is about to become a 2-part question. I have to word it just right so will take some time before part 2 shows up. Watch this space!!

How very thoughtful Unhooked. SCC played a little different role for me since I had already quit for six months prior to arriving here. When I found SCC, I was looking for a group of ex-smokers who could appreciate what I have gone through and who would celebrate my six month anniversary with me. What has it done for me: SCC has given me the opportunity to experience the great happiness and joy our members experience when they achieve a milestone. In this way, I relive the joy as well and I enjoy being surrounded by winning people. Ps: By the way tha llama 100 day milestone is coming up tommorow or the next day. I can't remember her pen name and she hasn't posted a whole lot lately, however I think I saw her post on your 100 day milestone. Will someone remember her on her special day.
