MLMR- I have watched you fight hard for your quit! Congratulations on 11 months! Be as proud of yourself as we are of you!!

Break

Can you hear me now?

I read Alien Carr’s Easy Way book. It helped. What helped me the most was really adopting the philosophy/ mantra of this forum. Not one puff... I became quite the fan of an old poster on another forum & adopted his way of thinking. Just make it through the day until my head hits the pillow. Wake up and say to yourself. I did it! I’m going to do it again. Then do it. For most- myself included- it sucked. Hard. But when I fought like mad all day & made it to my pillow smoke-free another day. The joy of completing another smoke free day far outweighed the agony of fighting monster craves. Post SOS when needed. It works. So does NOPT/NOPE

Welcome Diane! Congratulations on taking charge of your life & health!

Rock on with yo’ (your) badself! * I swear this was a common phrase used decades ago- at least down here in SE USA!

Howdy!

Although I haven’t been around much-I still proudly exclaim Yep to NOPE! everyday!! So happy to see all the familiar pledges & new ones too!

hi hesteralumni23- Truth be told, I'll admit i did not read every word of your soliloquy. The phrases that popped out to me were "dabbling in other shit" and "wake up call". That is way more than this forum can offer. You are 23 years of age. Pick a life. Drug user. Addict. Abstainer. Vegan. Meat eater. Gluten lover. Gay. Straight. Bi. Fluid. Indifferent. Here- the most important is smoker or nonsmoker. In my unsolicited opinion, the "dabbling in other shit" should be priority #1. I'm glad you had some time to reflect. You have made some admirable choices. Carry on...

I’m so sorry Doreen. I know you both fought the battle for so long. May peace be with you & free, deep, uncomplicated breaths be with him in his restful peace.
