  1. Congratulations Mac! 6 years is an awesome quit.
  2. I had an ugly quit. Realizing that I was truly an addict almost broke me completely. Me? An addict?! Yeah. Nicotine, my drug of choice. Crap totally rewired my brain. Sometimes I still can’t enjoy my second drug of choice, caffeine because ever since I quit smoking I’m hypersensitive to it. It’s something I can’t overcome. So I do have that reminder of having once been a smoker. That nicotine once controlled my whole life. So thankful that I suffered through the initial wuit and am still wuit 5 years later!
  3. Thanks everyone! I can’t believe 5 years has passed. It just doesn’t seem like it’s been that long. I remember crying tears of joy when I survived the first year and then it seemed that the more time that passed the less it felt like I had ever even smoked at all. Sometimes I feel like something is missing and I realize it for what it is, but this chic ain’t never going back to those chains. I appreciate each and every one of y’all.
  4. Thanks @DenaliBlues! I meant to log in on my anniversary date but it slipped my mind. HaHa I’m thankful to have come this far and also that you are still with us here. I need to do better. Thanks for support. You have always been solid and sound while helping us all along. I have appreciated your words on many occasions.
  5. Congratulations @sgt.barney!

    Thank you @jillar. You helped me to see so many things that I had been blind to by the smokescreen of my addiction. I’m going to miss you. You fought a good fight. I pray that you are resting in peace. ✌️ and ❤️ to all who read this. NEVER, quit your quit. 

  7. Tossing in my approximate 29,500 unsmoked cigarettes in honor of @jillar! She was taken from us way, way too soon. I’m just so saddened to hear this. She helped me tremendously along my own quit journey. I will miss her. Thanks @johnny5! May the JillAir cigarette continue to help our future quitters and may her death not be in vain.
  8. Spot on.
  9. Great decision in reaching out for all the support and resources available to you @tocevoD. Let’s get it done with a solid foundation and always, always coming here for the support needed during those overwhelming challenges life throws at us. We’ve all been there and are stronger for it. Looking forward to your next update!
  10. Congrats Penguin! 4 coffees! I hope that you enjoyed them. I developed an intolerance to caffeine after I quit smoking. I still drink it but it makes me cry or I get extremely nervous. I was hoping it would go away after so much time but it hasn’t. I hate not enjoying my coffee like I used to.
  11. Congratulations on your two year quit, Bri. I hope that you are doing well.
  12. I love this post! Thanks for selecting it @jillar and kudos to @Sazerac
  13. This is awesome progress @Penguin! I hope that your first workout goes well. Stick to your plan and don’t overdo it. I look forward to your next update.

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.
