Nope not today

NOPE…

I'm really sad to hear this. Jillar was a great person who helped so many in quitting smoking and was a great friend to many here. Rest in peace Jillar, you are definitely missed.

Rest in Peace, dear Jillar. You worked so hard to help the members of this board. You will certainly live on in our memories.

NOPE for today!

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

I'm gutted hearing this terrible news She was always so passionate about helping others rid themselves of this nasty addiction and she in fact did so much for others here. It is our collective great loss. R.I.P. dear Jillar. As Henry Van Dyke once penned ... Gone From My Sight I am standing upon the seashore. A ship, at my side, spreads her white sails to the moving breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her until, at length, she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other. Then, someone at my side says, "There, she is gone." Gone where? Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast, hull and spar as she was when she left my side. And, she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port. Her diminished size is in me -- not in her. And, just at the moment when someone says, "There, she is gone," there are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices ready to take up the glad shout, "Here she comes!" And that is dying...

NOPE!!

Ohh I am so very sad to hear this!!! She really helped me so much and will be missed! I didn't see her for a while and was wondering if something was wrong. What happened Doreen, do you know? So very very sorry!

I had to ask friends on her Facebook , Complications of Emphysema I am heartbroken… We were so good friends

She was a great person. I will miss her.

I know you were good friends and it's truly heartbreaking! She will be missed. RIP Jill

Alcohol and cigarettes are both very addictive substances that most often go hand in hand with each other. Good for you for gaining an awareness of how you personally relate to them. Don't let your guard down. You're doing great!

NOPE!!

Good morning @tocevoD.. if you are beginning to feel like a non-smoker, that is a good sign. Hope your son heals well. Regards, Gene

Just checking in again. Had a stressful week or 2 just gone. Been in and out of the hospital with my son, appendix had to be removed. All went well then we were back about a week later with a flare up. Thankfully it came to nothing. Never once felt the need to head to the shop for the dreaded ciggies. I feel like a non smoker now. Sporadically having the lozenges. I can go without them but still like the taste so need to get going on finding myself a pack of nicotineless lozenges. Could be the final hurdle. Haven't been out for a drink as yet which was always a hurdle in the past. I actually feel like I don't want to drink anymore aswell as that makes me wake up the next day feeling like death warmed up no matter how many I have. I sometimes think I have some sort of allergy to drinking and ciggies as both make me feel anxious, alcohol the day after and ciggies as and when I'd have one. Maybe my body is telling me to steer clear of alcohol aswell. Anyway, got to keep fighting the good fight. Off the patches and only sporadically taking lozenges as I say. It's been a good few months. Just got to keep going.

Congratulations! Keep the good work.

Stay strong. You can do this. Addiction lurks in the tall grass waiting to pounce when we’re down, hungry, angry, lonely or tired. Lotsa ways to care for yourself without those nasty smokes!

@Pilgrim; you're gonna absolutely LOVE your life of true freedom once your quit is better secured and those nagging thoughts of having a smoke are completely non-existant. It happens slowly but it DOES happen so yeah, stick with it and keep that thought of Freedom in your head particularly when you get those cravings to light up. It just ain't worth it! And I can tell you that the junkie part of your brain may be fading now but it will still jump up and bite you in the ass every once in a while over the first several months so always be on guard - ALWAYS!

It is with great sadness to inform you Our dear friend and Moderator Jillar sadly passed away last week . This beautiful kind person who has helped so many will stay in my heart forever RIP Sweetheart
