@Lilly On one hand I've been dealing with depression, anxiety and absent-mindedness, on the other hand I am happy that I am smoke free. I have been depressed, stressed, anxious and absent minded for several years now even when I was smoking. I realized that smoking was not going to solve my depression/anxiety/stress/absent-mindedness issues, so I decided to quit. Besides, I have goals for physical fitness I want to achieve, and smoking is a hindrance. Also, since the day I quit smoking, not a single day has gone by when I have not craved a cigarette, I just refused to succumb to that crave. I have tried psychiatric medication. I am still on it and the doctor has prescribed it for so long that I've gotten addicted to the psychiatric medication now. That is another addiction I'm fighting. What I'm trying to say is I know how crippling depression and anxiety can be, I just didn't express it before on the board.

@desperate1 and @Tammy Thank you very much!!!

Welcome aboard, Sammy and congratulations on a two month quit!!! You will find a lot of support here. Depression and chronic anxiety can be a problem as is chronic absent-mindedness. Just remember, that no matter what, your life is precious, especially first to you and then to your dog who depends on you (I hope this makes sense). Cravings will occur, that is normal, mental adjustment takes time and that time will vary from person to person. Stay close to the board, use the SOS thread and take the Nope pledge a day at a time. The good people here will help you. All the best!!!

Congratulations, Joe7!!!

@notsmokinjo @Martian5 @jillar @Rozuki @Joe7 @DizzyD @Doreensfree Thank you all very much!!! The support I received on Quittrain during the initial days of my quit was very helpful.
