Hi everyone Just thought I’d share something I think I’ve learnt recently. Background- I have been a pack a day smoker for 20 years, started when I was 16. I have quit a few times for max maybe 6months. I have been trying to quit since I was 21. So I have been genuinely trying to quit for 15 YEARS! Can you believe that. I have tried many things, patches, gum, champix, cold turkey etc. the only ...

Others have had slips, and i am not invulnerable. I do know this, especially since i had such an easy quit in comparison to others. We all deserve our just reward for believing and trying. We tried whether we succeed long term or not. I choose to believe i will. I am here everyday to see how easy i had it, and to encourage others, and hope that others can find their way with guidance. It is my w...

It definitely gets easier. I am now at a point where its easier just to stay quit. I have put on some serious weight but on the bright side I almost never consume alcohol. Used to be a 3 to 4 times a week alcohol drinker. What I want to share is that cravings do completely recede Good luck all !

Unbelievable 1016 days without a cigarette i remember when i first joined this group i thought i would never make it. The idea that i could get thought a full 24 hour period without a cigarette was such a foreign concept and I honestly never thought i could do it. However, the support I received from everyone on here was amazing, and without this service i am not sure i would be where I am no...

I’m still smoke free 133 days today I still have my moments but smoke free

Today is my last day on NRT. As of midnight tonight I will start counting hours, days and months nicotine free and not just smoke free. 12 weeks on NRT has worked for me to give up the smoking habit, I know many espouse cold turkey or other methods such as Champix etc. My only advice is use what ever works for you and if one method doesn't work try another, we are all different and the only th...

its so amazing boys and gals that everyone can really stop smoking by going cold turkey. let your heart control your brain and after a week or two your brain will start to adjust to the new world of smoke free zone.its been over 4 months for me and i have stopped counting. you have no idea the difference after stopping. just the thought of putting a cigarette in my mouth again makes me pull negat...

I want to wish everyone happy and safe holidays and a smoke free New upcoming year! It’s no secret that a lot of former smokers slip up right about this time of the year! It’s a party time, drink in your hand and you are a feeling pretty great and your so called “best friend nicotine devil” whispers in your ear that just one puff won’t hurt anything. Stay vigilant and employ NOPE concept- not one...
