NOPE - Not One Puff Ever

NOPE!

Glad to hear you are determined to stick to NOPE! It’s rough at first, but freedom is beautiful in the end!!

Thank you so much! Yes I have finally accepted that there is no such thing as just one puff. For the last decade or so I've vaped and used ecigs, not smoked cigarettes, which in my experience, is even harder to quit because it tastes good and doesn't smell up your hair and breath. So that's two motivators gone. What I kept doing was setting a quit date then after a short time (2 days, 3 days, once it was two weeks!) then think oh I'm just going to buy an ecig for a few puffs/one day/insert whatever lie I told myself. Then I couldn't bring myself to throw it away. Then it became okay I'll quit again when this one is empty/I'll quit again when/I'll quit again when. So I fully embrace NOPE. Not even one.

YES YES YES still going strong. The cravings are extreme but pass quickly!

Happy New Year @Kdad... Just checking in with you to see how you are doing? @QuittingGirl... has offered some good insight. The cravings do go away with time. Keep your precious quit @Kdad.. and let us know how you are doing. Kind Regards

Gday got a beer and cashews …..

Gday sitting on the front step. Step 14 off ground ….. watching a storm roll in. dogs gone inside…….

That’s awesome @Kdad. You’re on your way!! If you stick to NOPE you never have to wrestle with the discomfort of withdrawal again. Keep it up!

Yup, you can't even have just one puff, because one leads to two, leads to three, leads to four and before you know it, you are back smoking or vaping! Just keep doing what you are doing and you will succeed! 😀

Happy New Year @Penguin... and congrats on a solid quit

Welcome back @MichelleDoesntSmoke2025.... I understand where you are because I use to be a serial quitter as well. Lets both make 2025 our FINAL quit.

NOPE!

NOPE Every time I think about smoking, I remember the sickness I felt, and the stench. I think about having to plan my life around smoking, the conflicts it caused with family, and the worry it gave me (and still gives me) with every little medical hiccup I experience. I'm so thankful to be free of most of that and more, and getting stronger and healthier every day.

nope

Certainly a challenging issue to work out @Penguin but you know what ...? That's exactly the kind of thing to help keep your mind off smoking and/or any urges to do so. It really is a win/win 👏 Best of luck in getting it solved. Keep us updated as things progress please.

Congratulations on quitting and welcome back to the quittrain family. It's finally time for your forever quit. You deserve to be healthy and smoke free You be quitting for yourself first and foremost. Then use your friends and family for support, along with motivation. We here at the quittrain will support you 100% of the way so lean on us. You been through this before, it's hard work but you are worth the effort.

Hang on to your precious quit @Kdad! If you can make it through this first rocky patch, things get easier on the other side. But buying another pack flushes it all down the drain… and you’ll feel way worse than you do now. Your addiction is putting up a fuss and throwing a tantrum, like any toddler. Due to withdrawal, you can’t trust your judgement right now. Would you let a toddler drink gasoline just because he cried and pouted and stamped his foot? Of course you wouldn’t. So don’t let your addicted mind buy that pack! Breathe through it, exercise, distract yourself. You can do this!

Don't buy that pack @Kdad!!!! The change you need is to be clean again of smoking again. That's what's required. Do whatever you have to not to smoke again. It's right there in front of you for the taking. Don't listen to the nicodemon's lies 🙏

Nope!

Good to hear @Kdad it’s different for everyone … Dont over think .. your journey takes as long as it takes Just take it one day at a time 🐸

Welcome back @Kdad. Glad to hear you are here to quit! You know the drill… toss out all smokes and commit to NOPE. Use NRT if you have to, but take smoking off the table. Cravings are just loud obnoxious commercials… for junk you don’t need to buy. You have ultimate power to change the channel. YOU CAN DO THIS!

That's a lot of rough stress, but you can handle it. The stress is temporary, but smoking will just keep pulling you in again and again. The stress will pass, but addiction is the curse that keeps on giving. Don't let the temporary things take your dignity, friend.

Congratulations on your Lucky #13 months of freedom, and welcome to the Quit Train! We’re thrilled that you found us.
