Quitting now is the best thing you could possibly do for yourself! Stay strong as you battle through the withdrawals and rejoice in the freedom you're gaining. You can do it, Brittany!

NOPE!

Welcome back, @Britt! So glad that you are here and ready to break free of your nicotine addiction. We’re here to help by answering questions, by offering moral support through your ups and downs, and by distracting you with the occasional game, recipe or silly joke. Please keep us posted on how things are going!

Happy Lucky #13 @Paul723!! So glad that you’re living your best smoke free life!!

We can't say for sure but one reason you've been able to enjoy some of those things you mentioned doing in retirement was likely due in part at least to quitting. I know I've spent $$ travelling since I retired that otherwise would have been spent of cigs. That's just one of many things that makes quitting such a great idea!

It's a good thing I'm not afflicted with triskaidekaphobia and an even better thing that I haven't been smoking the last 13 years! I've been thinking that our addiction to nicotine trained us to constantly respond to withdrawal. This site can help people to train themselves to quit. Constant repetition of NOPE is a good start. There is some heavy lifting involved early on but it gradually gets easier over time. Our quit muscles grow stronger every time we tell ourselves that smoking is not an option. We find that we are a lot stronger than we thought we were. Training myself to quit and stay quit is one of the best decisions I've ever made. I'm now retired and happy about it. I'm finding new things to interest me and enjoy that. My last patent is pending and should issue soon. Janet723 is doing well and is helping our granddaughter buy a house. We have traveled some and have plans to do more.
