Congratulations on your decision to quit. We all have our little "wake up calls". I have found this site very useful too. My husband is also in the military and I have found that my hardest times are when he is gone (as he is a great support system). Hang in there it does get easier. I am glad that everything worked out for you.

Hi Taimi, Your scare was a warning! Glad that you heeded it and found us. Quitting can also be scary, but we can help you through that, too. Stay close, read, and post so we know how you are doing. There isn't much that someone here hasn't experienced, and we love to share what we know. Two days down...day 3 and the nicotine is out of your body, and only 4 more days of Hell week. You can do this! Oh, and tell your wonderful hubby that I thank him for his service to our country! Be proud!

Hi Taimi, Sometimes an event triggers a quit, sometimes a smoker just decides it's time... As long as your desire to quit outweighs your desire to smoke, you can do this. And keep posting and reading here; I cannot thank this site enough for helping me.

Hi, my name is Taimi and I am new to this site. I quit on the 16th after a pretty major health scare. I have smoked since I was 16 and am 39 now so WAYYYY too long. I'm lucky to have a really great support system here at home and so far am doing okay but sleep patterns are kinda screwed up so I was surfing around quit smoking sites. (While hubby is great I do not think he would appreciate me waking him up at 2am because I want to smoke)..I'm actually glad I found this site..working on my milestones and then reading posts here in the forum got me through that nasty craving. Last week I landed in the hospital with heart palpitations and next thing I know I am being treated for a heart attack...it wasn't...it turned out I had a blood infection that caused my heart to go haywire but until we knew that I was pretty freaked out. Of course after I was released from the hospital I found the pack of cigs that had been in the car. I had 3 before I crumpled the pack and decided that was enough. That little incident scared me enough to push me to quit. It wasn't an easy decision to make, I really enjoyed cigarettes but my health and being here for my children is more important. My husband deploys to Iraq in June and I can't afford to land back in the hospital, gotta be here to take care of the kids. 2 days down...I am a non-smoker now and am very grateful that I found this site when I really needed it!!!
