Many thanks to you, Reciprocity (I did the nope thing), Doreensfree (thanks for your kind support), QuittingGirl (the cinnamon trick is worth trying, when there’s a craving. I think I want to avoid any oral/manual substitutes until I can’t stand it), and Johnny5 (thanks for your message). It feels like there’s a good community here, and I’m looking forward to being part of it. blessings, Nellie.

Welcome @Nellie You are doing a great thing in quitting smoking. It took me several attempts to quit smoking as well but once I got my final quit, things got so much better. You can do this. I hope you stick around, read up on people's posts in the quit smoking section of this site, and reach out if you are tempted to light up. Life is much better off without cigarettes. You can do this and it is good to have you here.

NOPE!

Nope! Not today.

NOPE!!

Hi Nellie, Welcome! You came to the right place as you will get excellent support from our members. I truly believe that the success to quitting is having a good support group. This is the 2nd time that I quit and my last time. Who wants to go through those withdrawal symptoms again, certainly not me. The first time I quit for 6 years and unfortunately I went back, but this time I have such wonderful support from everyone so it's much easier. You have gotten excellent advice today so I'm only gonna add one more thing. In the beginning of my quit I would take cinnamon sticks and pretend that I was sucking the air in and blowing it out. They really did help me a lot, but if you don't like cinnamon, you can use cut up straws. Good luck to you and we hope to see you again!

@Nellie There's also a Games section on the site if you find yourself overwhelmed buy cravings and need something to focus your mind on for a bit. Also, we have a daily NOPE pledge section; The Daily Nope Pledge, where some of us like to pledge our daily promise to ourselves not to smoke just for today. In case you haven't heard of NOPE it stands for Not One Puff Ever! There's also an SOS section where you can go and ask for help if you feel you're losing control of your commitment not to smoke. Other members can come to your assistance to "talk you down".

I am not going to smoke today. NOPE.

Thanks, GonSo. nellie

Well, just Nope.

Hi Nellie, Welcome to the train. Oh yeah nothing stood in the way of getting our fix; not a soar throat, not a nasty cold, not a splitting headache. Nothing. Smoking was always our first priority. We are definitely here to support you. You can keep yourself busy with reading here and learn about nicotine addiction. Also some great videos to watch. Keep the reasons of why you quit available at difficult times. I have quit for a bit over 4 months. Early on it is hard, but doable. It only gets better with time and it is so worth it! You can do this!!
