OK .... I'm waiting for more speculation before the "Big Reveal" 🤣

Good plan. I quit on a Sunday morning and then took Monday and Tuesday off work for the same reason. I went in Wed. and within a hour my head was spinning and stress level was pretty bad but you know what? I got through it because I was determined not to let anything get in my way. I faked it until I made it. It took awhile but it wasn't as bad as smoking was making me feel. You will find a way to deal with it. Come here as often as you can to rant or ask for help - no shame in asking for help. We've all been there. Use ALL the tools in your quit smoking tool kit. Quitting is a big deal so make it priority #1 during the early days.

^^^^^ This is it! We all have thoughts about smoking. Our brains were conditioned for so long toward smoking activity that those thoughts just come to us even though we might be disgusted by the thought of smoking again. Providing you just dismiss those thoughts when they come to you, then all's fine. Dismissing those thoughts becomes easier and easier to do the further along your are in your quit.

Good work Potts! You're working your way to a degree in Computer Science AND a degree in NOT -SMOKING Both will make your future better.

Congratulations Kdad, You are two thirds of the way to that sought after 1 Year Smoke free milestone today. 8 months in now and you should be really enjoying the benefits of being a non smoker. Better health, fatter wallet and most of all, freedom from having your life ruled by a nicotine addiction. Now THAT'S something to celebrate 😎

Not enough sizzle

Nope!

Ummmm ............. just a suggestion in case you're at a loss for a monthly charm somewhere along the line.

Yes! Great work. Have a look at the Celebration page. Lots of people congratulating you. Keep up the good work

Hello Juan. I just wanted to welcome you and ask if you have already quit again or are you still planning your quit. The good people here will give you all the support you need to quit once you take that first step. Hope you stick around on Quit Train because support from other quitters does make a difference. An there is no shame in having a relapse. Use it as a stepping stone to a successful quit
