  4. I would have to say my smoking career started young. I have been exposed to nicotine all my life. Beginning in the womb, to exposure in the house with 2 smoking parents and then in my teens when I officially became a smoker. My father quit at the age of 45 and developed lung cancer at the age of 60. He died within a month of diagnosis from complications. In retrospect, that was a blessing because he didn't have to go through with the suffering of dying from the cancer itself which was inevitable. It was inoperable and he was at stage 4. I promised him I would quit smoking. I read Allen Carr's book and quit for 3 months. Unfortunately, the strength I had in the beginning of the quit was weakening and I had that 1 puff. If I had support like this forum, I would not have gone back. I would have truly understood the laws of addiction and the concept of NOPE. Fast forward 8 years....read that book again and this time found an online support forum. Support means everything and I am proud to say I am 21 months smober!! Quitting is easy.....staying quit is the challenge--however having a support system to go to and daily reminders of NOPE...made my quit journey not only doable...but enjoyable. If I can do it...anyone can!

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.
