  4. Hey @Brioski, sorry you're having a tough day, its to be expected at two weeks quit. I know two weeks seems like forever but it really isn't when you consider how long you smoked. That's going to equate to a lot of triggers and those are what you have to get through at least once to lessen the pull of the nicodemon. That's why we recommend the One Year Pledge: https://www.quittrain.com/topic/318-the-one-year-commitment/ It's a commitment to yourself to stick close to your support for your entire first year so that you can have the support you need, should you need it. As far as how long you'll feel this way, there's really no telling since everyone's quit is different. I smoked 35 years and it took me the whole first year. In contrast, my quit buddy smoked for around 20 years and had no problem with his quit. Hang in there because it won't always be this hard, I promise

  6. Congratulations @Mac#23 on your second year quit! The time sure flies doesn't it?! I hope you have a great day
  7. action Quit Date: 12 Oct 13 Posted May 6, 2014 I think this would be a useful thread to remind ourselves what we used to be like when we were smokers… There is a person in my office, who is probably mid-twenties and is a smoker. Our cleaning lady (an elderly lady who I believe is an ex-smoker and always says exactly what is on her mind!) was speaking with him about him smoking and asked him (as you do) – when are you going to give up smoking? What happens when you get cancer and it’s too late? (she has a way with words don’t you think!). Anyway his reply was: ‘IF it gets to that point, I will just keep on smoking, if it is too late… It’s not just smoking that causes cancer – walking down the street breathing in carbon monoxide from car exhausts increase the risk of cancer. Besides, I enjoy smoking and I could get hit by a bus tomorrow anyway…' I was sitting quietly just listening, thinking – did I used to sound like that? Was I so in denial that I would lie to myself (and everyone else) to justify that I could carry on smoking and it would be OK? And believing all the lies I was feeding myself? The answer is yes, I was that person just 7 months ago. Addiction sucks So, has anyone else heard any ‘good ones’ lately?

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.
