We just won another game yesterday!!👍😀 -32 points2 points2 points2 points2 points2 points2 points1 pointHello fellow addicts and those already free, I smoked from from ages 16 to 29. I was a pack a day smoker. I quit for 10 years, until about two and a half years ago when my marriage fell apart. I started smoking again and got heavily back into it. It wasn't long until I switched to vaping. The discreetness with vaping appealed to me greatly over cigarettes and my addiction was stronger than ever through the accessibility vaping offers. I hate that I'm a nicotine addict. I know this drug comes with a slew of cons and not one pro. I started smoking again to help me cope with the stress of a failed marriage and broken home, but of course, the reality is, nicotine doesn't help you solve any problems, in fact it just adds it's own to your existing ones. I fully realize the foolishness of smoking and beat myself up for it daily. Alone the lethargy that comes with it is causes me shame. I've quit several times, twice for months on end, but can't seem to keep myself free of it. I allow myself to be triggered by unpleasant experiences. When things aren't going well between my girlfriend and I, for example, I relapse. Well, I'm here now to say, I'm ready to leave this destructive, expensive, unpleasant addiction behind and free myself from the self-inflicted nicotine prison once and for all. My will is strong, and now I have the support of this community for encouragement and aid. Thanks for reading my story and for any kind words you have to offer. And with that I draw my last breaths of nicotine.1 point1 point1 pointDay four of my quit. There are waves of cravings, but I'm staying strong. NOPE!1 pointI pledge not to smoke or vape today. It will be 8 years since my last cigarette on April 17, 2017.1 point1 point1 point1 pointBack from N'awlens full of Crawfish, Gumbo, Shrimp Po-Boys etc... Of course NOPIN all the way!!!
1 point1 pointGreat post QG Quitting is easier when you’re doing it with friends … Stay close 🐸1 point1 pointHi, Ryan. With this insight you are equipped to succeed! Say goodbye to the shame, the bondage, and the waste of your life force. Withdrawal may be tough but sweet freedom awaits on the other side! Keep us posted on how things go.1 point1 pointWelcome aboard Take your seat and buckle up , the road may get a bit bumpy , Stay seated until you reach your Freedom . Your amongst friends here You can do it 🐸1 point1 pointCongratulations @Ryan83 for taking the leaf forward to begin a new life for yourself free of nicotine and welcome aboard the Quit Train! Based on reading your initial post it appears you are well grounded in terms of understanding that nicotine, either in the form of cigs or vaping, offers you nothing positive and only deepens the slavery to nicotine that you are currently trapped in. The good news is that you can end all that today by maintaining the determination you've indicated you now have. Unwavering commitment is key to quitting long term! I can also confirm, as someone who's been quit for years now, that the best thing about quitting is that sesnse of freedom we get after kicking nicotine to the curb. That to me is better than improved health and improved wealth. There's lots of resources here on the forum and all the support you could possibly hope for so I would encourage you to participate often. Read past threads, ask questions, share your accomplishments and challenges. We've all been there so we get it!1 point1 point1 pointCongratulations @Kdad! Great start to your forever quit! Carry on to month 3!
