Hi Debbie, I just wanted to say that I am so incredibly inspired by you and many other successful quitters on this website. Coming back to this website and reading stories and comments is so motivating for me. Thank you x

Hi. I was relieved to come across this site after, in desparation, googling: "Day 1 of stopping smoking". I joined this site a few minutes ago to be part of a community who can so relate to my situation. I set my quit date for 1 Oct. I have for decades known that I should stop - and totally get that it is just destructive on every level - I can no longer keep up the "internal "tug of war" and maintain the bondage.

René i at the same stage as you ... I am planning on tomorrow as my quit date and trying this site out as recommended by my GP who assured me to get all supports i need. Ive smoked the bulk of of my life.... From 14/15 to now 47.

I gave for pregnancy years ago, so I know it can be done. i dont know why it is so scary to give up ... Is it the fear of being alone in my thoughts instead of sucking on a srupid cigarette. Is it fear of failure ... Is it fear of actually having to find alternatives to amuse myself when i'm bored?

I know it's such a stupid, filthy habit and so do you René ... We can do this!!

Thanks everyone for the comments, Dobbin I am always reading your posts they really are great and uplifting and must of helped so many people, I know they helped me. Thank you indigo8 this site is a lovely site, I don't live in NSW but I am very grateful to this website, it is a great international site. Rene' and Antipetal you are at the start of your journey. Keep going, I smoked for decades, smoking is not your buddy or friend, it is your greatest enemy and only you can beat it. You can do it and you will do it.
