@11better11, sorry to hear you gave away your quit. Bad craves are going to happen in the early months so some things I did was suck on soft peppermint puffs, use my air cigarette and stay glued to the forum where I knew I could post an SOS if I got too close to caving to a crave. You have to be willing to do whatever it takes in order to succeed. I hope you've restarted your quit again....

Congratulations @overcome on two months quit already! You are doing awesome, and it's so great to see you helping your fellow quitters along the way. I hope you have a fabulous day and celebrate you today

Watching Harry Potter for the first time..

Welcome aboard @Fermosalua you've come to right place to achieve your forever quit. We have members from all over the world so there's almost always someone here when you need us So since you're here why not just quit now? The reason why I say this is we just had a member sign up who postponed their start date and then vanished. .ore than likely the addiction won out, hopefully I'm wrong but that's just how bad our addiction is..... Lots to do here from the awesome member support to our forums loaded with information on our addiction. We even have a fun Social section for when you want to stay close but get your brain focused on something besides the quit

Welcome aboard @Keya7989 and congratulations on deciding go take your freedom back. I'm glad to see you're already building your toolkit of aids. I'd also suggest to have sweets to suck on. Most of us craved them when we first quit. I was hooked on those soft peppermint puffs my whole first year lol. I also quit smoking in mg usual spots so it would help me not associate them with smoking once quit. Make sure to check out all our different forums. We have everything from educating yourself about our addiction to Socializing with music and games. Unfortunately our chat box is down but you can always use pm's or create a new thread in socializing to use for chat

Congratulations on your first month free @FunkyMonkey ! This is a HUGE accomplishment and I hope you treat yourself to something special today.

HUGE congrats to you @intoxicated yoda on a full year quit! You had a tough go of it early on and you persevered all while still supporting your fellow quitters. I'm so glad we get to share this with you

Congratulations on a decade quit @Leanna, that's awesome!

And would a cars trunk lid and hood count as doors? Dishwashers, washing machines, all doors?

@overcome, I believe you have misunderstood what I was pondering. I wondered why I can't look in that horses mouth that was given to me

I've heard the "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth" but never one about a snake. Must be a Canadian thing?

That's great news @FunkyMonkey, YOU ARE DOING SO WELL!

I wonder why you don't look a gift horse in the mouth...

Hi @Jack1664, Congratulations on five years quit! We love when members check in and let us know how they are so thank you for that

Congratulations @Grund, on five years quit! Its good to see you

c9jane29 Posted May 14 Thank you guys so much!! 5 years already?! I love it!! I look back on the last 5 years with so much joy in my heart... I'm glad I saw my quit as a celebration, it has always felt that way...never negative. It changed my life, my kids lives. I volunteer as a Girl Scout Troop Leader...before I would have never done anything like that. I had convinced myself I had too much anxiety or too introverted but all of that was my addiction getting me to fall out so I'd always have time to feed it. I still have my original "why I want to quit" list and my terrible Bob Ross paintings all around the house because my quit will always be a part of me. My husband quit a little after me and he finally had the courage to quit a kitchen job he had been at for 10 years for an accountant position and now he's the supervisor. Believe me when I saw anything is possible! Thanks Quittrain for always being here to celebrate with me... I'll even bring the balloons ❤ Link to original post: https://www.quittrain.com/calendar/event/729-c9jane29-anniversary/?do=findComment&comment=225

@tocevoDSorry to read you went back to full-time smoking. I stop short of calling it a relapse only because you say you've been social smoking the whole time. And now you see why we as addicts can't social smoke. So let's get you quit for good! You have a great group of 2022 quitters to walk beside and of course all of us to lean on when needed
