This time I mean it - no excuses

Hi everyone!
I m 25 years old, but I smoke for past 10 years. Well, I quited smoking at one point and after a 1.5 year due to the difficult period in my life (stress, nerves, depression...) I started again and since then I can't stop. I smoke too much on a daily base and when I go out it is even worse. I m still young and I wouldn't care that much but even now I have a lot of healh problems. Whenever I think of period when I didn't smoke I remember how I felt good, had a lot of energy, slept better, felt more relaxed... I miss that and I want that part of my life back. So on 23rd December 2015 I quited. I did!!! Since then I m clean and my plan is to stay that way. If you ask why December 23? Well, on that day I went to my work place, after that I had a cup of coffe and I borrowed two cigarettes from the waiter (I didn't want to buy a new pack because I would smoke all), packed my thinks and went to my parents' for two weeks. It helped me a lot to change the envirenment and to make a cut. In a way you adjust your life and your habits to another rhythm. During the time at my parents' house I made a list of things I also want to change in my life to keep on track (things which will make me feel better and satisfied with my life). I joined this site to encourage me to stay away from cigarettes. I need support but what is more important is that I m here to support others.

Well done-Lady K. Keep going..You can do it. Keep us posted! Stay Quit! Best wishes.
