I sont normally explain my personal life but today i will, in the hope that even if just one person gets inspired by it, it would make me happy. Today i am 18 days smoke free with the help of will power and Champix. I smoked a packet of 25's a day for the last 25 years. I smoked bongs for 14 years every single day. I smoked ice for 2 years every single day. I have been drug free for 2 years now and like i said smoke free for 18 days. Be strong you will succeed.

That is fantastic, well done! I am also on Champix and at half dose, smoke free for 13 days and doing really well. Starting to wean myself off...but that's my personal thing, not for everyone. We can do this!!

Wow furs, what a long way you've come. An epic journey of struggles and, at last, joy and kindness to yourself. You had a lot you loaded onto yourself and you've come through it. You are an amazingly strong person, possibly stronger than you realise. Stay strong and stay in control.

Would like to say a big thank you to everyone that took 2 mins from there busy lives to send such encouraging messages. It really means alot. Also i believe family support plays a huge role. Without my family i wouldn't have been able to come this far. Thanks again everyone and i wish everyone the best on there journey. It's not an easy one.

Thanks for your post. My addiction seems so simple compared to yours, yet you managed to escape such a burden. I won't feel sorry for myself again! You must have had a big kick in the pants!

really impressed to read your story and inspired to keep going for a better future...I think addiction can be.among other things, a way of swallowing down hard stuff in ourselves or trying to escape pain, as well as the horrendous facts of how easily our body and brain can become addicted to all kinds of poisonous substances. It's challenging, to say the least, to take control of the mind and body but no matter what we can't control in our lives, this is is one tough challenge that we all have the power to overcome...thanks so much furs7.You are a champ!
