I can & will do this
I have tried so many times to quit but failed every time.
This time I’m going to put 200% into it
Smoking 40+ a day and now on the NRT
I’m on day one today so yes I have a long way to go
My biggest setback is all the other smokers around me
I live and work with people smoking around me
Any tips on how to overcome and beat this is greatly appreciated
Thanks 😊
Hi. Either tell them you are trying to quit or if their smoking bothers you, get away from that environment. Don't hang out with them. At least not for a while until you enjoy being smoke free. Don't let others govern your thinking. Spend some time away from them. May even make them sit up and take notice. Don't necessarily think the so called friends care about what you are trying to do. Often they don't! Surprise. More than often, they will take you down with them as opposed to helping you.
Its great to hear from from a nonsmoker so determined to break free! If you can get through one day, you will turn your health, confidence and finances into a bonanza of new possibilities you may have never envisioned! Tell your addicted mind to take the habit and or addiction away. Confirm with mantra's like, I dont smoke or NOPE and the torment will leave you. Believe in it. Its a mind game.
Find your self belief.

Hi Boo 202 Welcome to Lesson 101.....Yes, You Can Quit Smoking! Repeat , repeat and believe. I wanted to quit and my hubby smoked right beside me. He did quit too and we both joined our smoking friends on breaks. We chose to quit smoking, not quit our friends. You choose to quit smoking do what you find to make it work. Most importantly, make up your mind. It is a mind game. Please read our stories and especially the comments and advice given. Know the enemy....nicotine and gain the upper hand.!
Welcome Boo 202, stay close to this forum is my advice, everyone can give you much help and valued friendship. Be aware as said before, this is a mental concern along with any withdrawals from Nicotine in the early days. You have already got some strategies that did work, now you have the chance to make them stick. NOPE (not one puff ever) worked for me after a few goes, but by far the best thing was this forum. Learn and Live along with us.
Hi Boo 202, you maybe surprised to find out that most of the smokers won’t even notice that you quit. Good luck in you quest. You can do it.
This is one place where we can bragg or spruik our successes or failures regarding Quitting the smokes with a receptive audience. Just imagine if I dressed up as a town crier with a loud bell in the busy central park, stepped up onto the highest picnic table and said.
"Here Ye, Hear Yee!
I announce a saving of over 8 Thousand Dollars over 300 days!"
I wonder if anyone would ask me how?
But I'd bet on this platform most would understand how.
Hope you found a sense of humour ?
