WOOHOO! A whole decade of kick-ass-ery down. Amazingly well done Doreen! Thank you for your existence on this forum. You’ve helped me so much. You were a rock to cling to in my time of need. I think that you are just brilliant. I hope that you enjoy this monumental anniversary! Again, thank you!

Ahhhh…..BROKEN CHAINS

I’ve got the fireworks!

I’m sorry for your loss, Bri. Just keep turning your mind away from those pesky thoughts. The old Bri may have caved but not this strong new Bri we see! I mean you’ve kicked Nicodemons butt, laughed in Big Tobacco’s face and slammed the door shut on it. You’ve got this!

So you just keep showing up here. You keep telling your story. As much or as little as you wish. It helps. It really does. You reach out. We assist. We can help. We want to see you succeed.

Thanks @stzr500! I just love it when the veterans with so much time spent without nicotine in their systems drop in with an update. It gives us all so much hope. I remember reading some of your comments while I was doing some deep diving on this board during my initial quit and because of that I can give you credit for the assist in my own quit. I’m glad that you dropped in. For myself but especially for those who are just beginning their journeys. Take care!

There are many reasons to quit. But it’s got to be for you. You can do this. This is THE place to be if you’re battling that Nicodemon.

You’re doing great @tocevoD Excellent progress!

Resonating.

I’m sorry to hear this @Cbdave but glad you shared. Reminding us to be mindful of our health. I tend to let things go and ignore little issues I may question in the back of my mind. Sometimes I find myself thinking I’m bulletproof because I quit smoking but the truth is far from that. Take good care of yourself.

Truth. Ugly. Brutal. There isn’t enough of it out there today. Thank you Doreen, for keeping it real.

Never going back to being a slave to nicotine. Done with it!

Congratulations Sandi on your second month being quit! You have done an amazing job of it and you should be so very proud of yourself!

10 years is great Paul! Congratulations on a job well done!

Let those tears run their course Bri. You will be stronger for it. I know you will stick with your quit. You’ve overcome so much. I hope that you are feeling much better now. I hate that you posted this a good while ago and that no one has been on to respond. Please let us know how you are doing.

I’m glad to hear that you are well again and that you are still smoke free!

Congratulations Brioski! You are doing awesome! You’ve come such a very long way and I’m so happy for you!

This is so exciting Robin! You are doing such a great job of quitting. Keep it up!

This is an awesome update @tocevoD! I’m so proud of and happy for you! Keep up the great quit!

Ditto for me AND…

Congratulations on your 2nd month quit SP! You are doing great!

Welcome to the Lido Deck @overcome! I’m so glad that you were able to join us and I’m so very happy for you! Great job!

Congratulations on second week being quit @robin0212!

Wonderful post Kate. It will help so many. I am thankful that no one ever made me feel like I wasn’t good enough to quit. That I was doing it wrong. I only ever received the greatest support from you and so many others. I want to name everyone, but scared to death that I would leave someone out. My fellow “Draggin’ Slayers” are the best co-quitters I could have had though!

An ice cold Coca~Cola! My guilty pleasure, but I don’t care. I love the stuff. LOL IDK, A reward doesn’t have to be something you ingest. A basic mani and/or pedi. Splurge and buy that great smelling shampoo you haven’t bought in awhile. Buy a book you’ve been wanting and lose yourself in it. There are so many options. Maybe something to go along with the walking?
