Hi all, my first post, and 15 days without a dart! This group is amazing btw! Like everyone, there have been some challenges but I keep telling myself, they are nothing compared to having to explainto my 6 and 4 year olds that their father consciously decided to not be part of their future lives....I know we can't control everything in the future but this is one thing we can eliminate! And as we all know, it's a big one!

I had been smoking for 25 years and I have found it comforting to say to myself "I don't smoke anymore". It makes me free strong and in control and I have really enjoyed not having that dark cloud (guilt, wasted money, killing myself, anti social, smelling like ash) follow me around everywhere. I have used an inhaler a few times (during nervous footy games and drinking a few beers) which takes the edge off those "linkage" occasions. Anyway, we're all heroes...well done everyone...never thought i could do this!

Hey Blocker. Welcome. Great start you have made. Totally identify with the negative image you had when smoking. All that has gone and the list of positives seem endless.

Well done and stay close here as it really helps

Hi Blocker, welcome on board the quit ship. I am on almost 40days now after smoking for 50 yrs. Thankfully alarm bells went off just at right time and subsequently made my choice which is definitely the right one after all thise years . If we all put our mind to it we can all become ex smokers. Good luck and stay tuned. Cheers.
