Stay focused on your end goal and you'll make it through those tough moments. As you say, they don't last long so when they come, get busy doing something; anything!

Glad you're tackling another quit attempt @MichelleDoesntSmoke2025! You should be well aware of the challenges of the early quit by now in that you've been here several times in the past. Hoping you have learned from past mistakes and that this time you understand that whether you quit or not is completely up to you and your unfailing determination to reach for a better life; not only for all the people you mentioned but most importantly ... for YOU! Quitting is certainly doable for everyone; you just have to put in the work long term to make it happen for you! You know that you'll get all the support you could ever need here on the train but in the end, it comes down to you and the effort you're prepared to make at staying quit long term. We'll all be here routing for ya

Rewards along the way to mark whatever milestones you feel are significant is an excellent idea I saved up all the money I'd saved over my first year of quitting and put that toward a cruise for myself & the wife. The first cruise ever where I wasn't hiding away on the ship in the smoking area and the first time not suffering through major withdrawal during the flights to get to and from the cruise port! It was win/win all around So by all means, reward yourself for a job well done!

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

I must say ... I'm surprised you succumbed to the smokes again so soon after celebrating your Lido Deck Anniversary but I know it happens and I'm really happy to see you have come back to the train to take charge of your quit & your life again. The story could be a lot different had you decided to just carry on with the cigars. My Dad was a cigar man, smoked them throughout his life, until they killed him Don't make the same mistake Stew

Glad to see you're still at it @Kdad! It's doable yet the early days are not plesant, as you know but the reward for sticking with it is Freedom! Keep fighting and stay on the train where people get what you're going through.

Beautiful Tree Pic Dave!
