  1. The woman who reads my gas meter drove up a while ago. It was when I started imagining her having an unexpected lay down in my mud room as I rummaged her pockets and her van for cigarettes that I knew I have a serious problem. Fortunately I refrained from that action. I did find a single edged razor blade and made five small vertical cuts in my lower lip. With these I know I can't smoke and missing a few meals won't hurt me. With antiseptics and minimal mouth movement I expect to be relatively healed in three or four days. I should be past the worst of the withdrawls by then. Thank you all for your wonderful input, but I guess some solutions are best found on one's on.
  2. Nineteen waking hours with no nicotine. While I listen to everyone here telling me how good they are, all the reasons I should quit, and how wonderful they feel, even rainbow farting unicorns, I am ready to commit violence. An hour ago I was reduced to going outside to the ash bin looking for smokeable butts. As I am nearly thirty miles from the nearest place which sells cigarettes, I had the bright idea of giving my car keys to my father-in-law so I wouldn't be tempted to drive there. Cream of tartar with OJ. Honey. Turmeric. Hard candy. Toothpicks. No gum in the house, I looked. Ran until my feet hurt. My dog won't even stay in the same room with me. Showers, hot and cold. I want a MF< GD $#%^&*$*^#$@&* CIGARETTE!
  3. Wow. Comments run the gamut from sanctified to sanctimonious. I should have known better. There's nothing new here.
  4. Let me see....I am 64 years old and smoked since I was 17. I can stop smoking, go through years of physical, emotional, and mental distress, alienate others with my frustrations and anxieties, completely change my life.....OR I can continue poisoning myself, have a heart attack, die, go to Heaven (which everyone says is a much nicer place than this toilet of a world in which we live) and again be with my dead wife whom I love and miss very much. Hmmmm Decisions, decisions.

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.
