  1. Here I am. Experiencing one of the less than optimistic periods. Hoping it is short lived. Having a "channel 19" (read no news today) break. Will likely NEED to attend to my tooth concern with professional care. Grateful for the blood flow, grateful for tools to provide oral care. My dentist in the previous state had hoped I would get 5 yeas out of this tooth. Coming up on 2.5, so hey, a good run for a former smoker. Concerned as I had put off finding a dentist in this new state (while getting hooked up to new insurance) and now will be looking for care during these covid-19 times. Grateful in advance for finding the perfect dentist at the perfect time. Had a wild few moments earlier today where my addiction roared and drove me. Luckily it drove me into the woods with the cat vs into the car to the store. Really could've gone either way. It passed. Commitment to myself nope life nope hope nope really don't care for how that reads.... could be true. commitment to writing something here daily-ish talking to my mom daily caring for my cats ongoing sometimes it just seems so heavy, and i feel so used up....or never was....or never learned.....and hindsight is great, and sadness for what was~is wraps around the heart and squeezes like a constrictor... Any way...will end this vomiting of ick and dance

  2. Another day on the train. Woo Hoo! Sometimes I remember I don't smoke and am surprised. Still getting the occasional expected and occasional unexpected craving. Barely, evening NOPEing myself. Just moving along to the next thought. What a gift!!! Been feeling untethered and a decided lack of purpose ... I'm sure many are finding their way with similar feelings. So scared for so many people. Desire for information and understanding... don't think either are forthcoming. Have decided if I am smoke free, living actively, connecting as best I can with those I love and offering an ear and eye ... I am living with purpose. Have a sense social distancing will be going on for most of this year.... and take much longer to find a new operating normal for many areas of society. Sure hope I learn something and am aware of it. Be safe people. BE BOLD in LOVING on your peeps. Offer endless gratitude to those putting themselves in harms way.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
