make it happen for me
Hello All, I have been reading through many stories and found them encouraging. Today is my first quit day, I have tried many times before but never succeeded. My family of non-smokers think it is easy to quit. This time I found this community and feel confident I can succeed . I believe that having somewhere to read tips hints and success stories will be the key to my quitting.
Great community here helped me to get were I am today.
One day at a time and every new day you are another day stronger. All the best
Welcome Rasmussen,
You've come to the right place :o) I'm day 50 today and have quit solo. All my friends, family and colleagues smoke so I'm on my own. Much like you but yours don't smoke - but you're still on your own with your quit journey.
This site has been a truly valuable resource for my journey. I come on here often and "check-in" with my progress and what I'm experiencing with quitting. And you know what? I'm not alone. There are people on here that have/are experiencing exactly the same as me and we share our journeys with each other - HONESTLY. No one is here to judge you. To get the most out of here you will need to put in. Post how you feel. Post what you think.
This journey is going to be difficult for a long time - but here - we travel it together giving each other support and encouragement.
We can all do this... Good Luck...
Good luck. You are in a good space on this site. I should know something after 505 days...
Well done for making the start. Day two here. Hoping we can keep each other motivated since we're pretty much at the same starting point.
Crasher , Thank you I intend to come on here whenever I can. The stories I have read made me realise I can do this.
Lia, congratulations. I hope one day to be able to say over 500 days smoke free myself.
How are you finding the tablets? I'm yet to notice any major differences or side affects so far.
Hi Jaylee, that is good I a not game to try the tablets yet as I have high PB and have read some bad reports. I am however using patches 16 hour ones. Felling good at this stage. Day 3 is here
Wendy thank you for the welcome. I do feel this site and the people on it will be a great help to me and many others. I have tried so many times over the last 30 years to quit but, without any family support found I failed each time.
