NOPE

Hooray for me! Six Weeks today! Been a long and hard road and it still isn't over...

G’day NOPE .....Not One Puff Ever.... (replace Ever with Min Hour Day as required!)

You have a lot of blood, sweat & tears invested in this life saving choice you made 6 weeks ago. It does get easier so just remember why you quit in the first place and how much of yourself you've invested to this point. You're on the winning path. Celebrate that!

Keep up the great work, Up In Smoke. It might not feel this way but you are doing great. It can be a struggle early on but it is worth it in the long term.

I've been following these storms. It is rare for two storms to hit this closely at the same time. Last time it happened in the Gulf was in the 1930's (according to the Weather Channel). Stay safe @Sazerac and others in these storms' paths.

Congratulations on 1 year smoke free @mightyboosh This is a huge accomplishment. I hope you do something big to celebrate today.

Yep, one year eh. I've had some very stressful events happen this year including the death of my dear old dad who was 93. However, it never crossed my mind that having a cig would help with or lessen any emotional trauma that I was going through, not once. In fact it strengthened my resolve and belief that those awful sticks of poison are good for absolutely nothing. I will never become complacent though, I've learnt that lesson before.

Very scarey ...Mother Nature !!!!!......be kind !!!!! Stay safe....❤

NOPE!!!!!!

Thanks for all your encouragement. I'm at work writing this hence it is brief. I'll log on when I get home tonight.

Congratulations, huge accomplishment?

You got it Kate...there is absolutely no good reason to throw that beautiful almost-6-month quit away!!! KTQ!!!

Well ... that's odd. I changed mine to both the other themes and the "Promote" box disappeared. OK so, I guess that sinks my theory!

You have done marvelous work by educating yourself, Angeleek, and have built yourself a fine, sturdy quit. I am so glad you are sharing your quit with us ! I quit on a whim, cold turkey, and did not prepare at all. I just decided I would try not smoking for a year as an experiment, if I didn't like it, I could always smoke again. Days in, I found Joel Spitzer's Video Library and my education began. I couldn't 'turn if off like a light switch'. It took almost a year of craves and triggers for my brain to be really Free, reliably free, consistently free but, I knew from the very first day that I was committed to my 'experiment' and the power behind that commitment propelled me through the gnarly times.

Quit any way you can. It's up to you. At the risk of going all Sarge on you - the quit is as hard as you make it. Whatever method you are using rejoice that you have decided to quit this revolting activity!

I was too chicken to do cold turkey and I was scared of Joel and his site. I did patches. Now I know there is nothing to be afraid of and that the true quitting came not from the patches but from me. Honestly the best tool in my quit smoking tool box was this forum and the other place.
