Reciprocity

I can't say I'm not disappointed to hear this because I am. We did our best to make all from the struggling QSMB feel welcome and more importantly to secure the quits of those who were early on in their quits. The celebratory stuff is all well and fine and really just an expression of our pride for the person reaching a milestone. A pat on the back from people who know how hard it is to reach those milestones. So I'm not really bothered much about how our last minute celebratory thread was perceived by the guest of honor. What I am truly happy about and what we should all be proud of are comments that we received from those QSMB people who were early in their quits. I believe one even suggested that coming here may have saved their quit! That's the real focus here - quitting this horrible addiction that literally costs lives and helping those early in that process to move forward toward their own personal freedom. That was our focus then and it should always be our focus going forward. I'm impressed that you Edna have paid us the courtesy of an apology for what ever may have been said elsewhere. That takes guts and a degree of personal accountability so - thank you. I also truly wish that as you go forward at QSMB now as a long term proven quitter, that you share all the knowledge you can to foster those new quitters along in their journey. That's our collective responsibility in paying forward the support we have all received along the way ourselves.

I was under the impression QSMB was up and running again and that people were able to log on to that forum once again. When did you last try? Mods or the Admin will need to answer your questions about posting personal emails and/or blog addresses here. I don't know but. if you are truly interested in helping people get off the cigs, why not just hang out here and participate? There is even a Blog area on the main page here that costs nothing to utilize. You can blog your brains out for free. I read the blogs here. I imagine others do too.

Mine bites me when I talk to him :angry:

Welcome ish :) Glad you decided to join us!

Just wait until the next time you bake cookies, bread or a pie though. Next time you are around a turkey cooking in the oven. Next time your hubby buys you flowers. That's when your new sniffer will really pay off :)

That's great CP1973 :) Yes, you are at the stage now when you'll start to get some relief from that seemingly unrelenting craving and anxious feeling. You still have work to do and will still have some struggles and down days but now you know that YOU CAN DO IT :) That's the best part. When you start to come out the other side of the hard times and suddenly realize; hey, I think I just might be able to actually do this after all :dance2:

Why thank you. I've never had a woman say that to me before :P 2

Oh my ................... If i had know it would be this song, I would have waited a while to exit into this world :lol: https://youtu.be/UHo6ug6yAmw

I think Ad / Marketing Agencies will use anything with a catchy beat or compelling melody to promote their goods. They figure most people won't have a clue as to where to song came from or it's meaning and, they're probably right.

+2 Now that's what I call - Positive :)

I have had some sinus issues after I quit smoking. Not sure if it's related to my quit or not though. Might just be a coincident? Seems a lot of weird s*it happens within our bodies as the repair process happens.

I believe in you Feely !! You are stronger than you realize and you know smoking adds NOTHING positive to your life - only adds to problems. You have a pretty strong quit going there and it will only get stronger and easier to manage. Just tough out these early days. We all have to put in our hard time to come through as non smokers and you are now on our non smoking team so let's do this :)
