Stories & experiences

Go you good thing, never doubted you, you were one of my main inspirations, I am so proud of you, I will never forget the support of you, puffnomore, happiness, in this journey we are on, treat yourself, you bloody deserve it

Thank you so much sweetheart. You are not far behind me 💕

An awesome achievement Nuts
Well done

I never doubted that once you jumped into your pledge to leave those smokes behind that you would stick to it. That much determination to never give in to desire for one more puff has got you at one magical year,.
You told us that you had made up your mind and I think that's the right mindset. Sure you had fear at first and used the nicorette patch just to ease that perceived threat but you soon realized that the fear was gone and the patch wasn't needed after a very short time.
I'm all for a cold turkey quit as the best and quickest way for those that already have the correct mindset, but also think there is definitely a place for other methods for those that fear the Quit to ease into it until they find the mindset that is needed. Wouldn't it be great to wave a magic wand to every smoker and give them the power to give it up! We know that some wont accept the invitation. We know that unless they truly want to be free they will continue smoking with the fear of a Quit later and with some people that Quit never comes.
Congratulations Nuts and I'm so inspired that you were ready to Quit one year ago>.

You were chomping at the bit rearing to go right from the start. You could see the finish line and nothing was holding you back. I wanted to help but I couldn't rein you in and was afraid you would get ahead of yourself and falter. Thankfully, I had not to worry long. You sped ahead taking everything in stride and looking straight ahead.
Not only did you show us an exemplary quit but did it with such optimism that you inspired others along the way. You , like many others have become like family on iCanQuit, taking time to support each other and this site while helping other so that they too can enjoy the life of a non-smoker.

Congratulations Nuts! One year seems like such a long time but it isn't really. It is the first year of a better life ahead for sure! Be proud and free Nuts. You deserve it! 👍❤🙏🦅

Congratulations! NUTS!
What a great achievement and a wonderful landmark in your life.
I personally want to say thank you so much for the time and effort given to me by you when I started just 1 month ago.
You are an inspiration to us all to keep on toward being smoke FREE and understanding the journey.
I dont want to wish my ife away, but I cant wait to be able to stand up with pride at 1 year FREE.
Thank you. GO GIRL!!

Thanks so much to everyone for your kind words. I came across this site quite by accident, while looking for quit smoking tips. I read some stories and was so inspired that i wanted to join in. Everyone was so nice and supportive that i couldnt fail. Thank you to Broncor, PuffNoMore and Happiness. You have all been fantastic. I really recommend this site to newcomers. Sometimes a kind word is all that is needed to stay on track 💕 Stay strong everyone 😊

Congrats Nuts, well done. Stay smoke free but always vigilant. Cheers
