NOPE!

11 months... that's awesome! Thanks for the inspiration!

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms on the Train. My own mother turned 89 last week. Raising me was no picnic. Much gratitude.

NOPE!!

I’m into gentle stories these days, too, Kris. Some Pixar movies, but mostly tv series I can stream/binge with familiar characters and positive themes. Star Trek Next Generation (love Roddenberry’s faith in humanity formula). Great British Baking Show. Somebody Feed Phil. All Creatures Great and Small. Ted Lasso. Downton Abbey. M*A*S*H. Grace and Frankie. The other thing I do is listen to audio books while falling asleep, doing projects with my hands or snuggling with the cats. My favorite soothing audiobook series of all time is the Brother Cadfael mystery series narrated by Patrick Tull. (Start with “One Corpse Too Many.”) Favorite and dependable, for sure!

NOPE

Take your seat.

Hi, @Georgia B.! Welcome to the forum. It's really great to hear a little bit about your story. It sounds like you've been on quite a journey to find your freedom. Many of us here on the Quit Train have had our own long and winding roads with this addiction, too. Congratulations on finding your way here and for seizing the opportunity to ditch the nicotine and vaping for good. I, too, used the patch system, so if you ever want to talk about that let me know. I'm now on day 84 since my last smoke, completely nicotine free, and not looking back! It does get tough at times, but then it gets easier. There are lots of smart, kind, and funny people here to support you along the way. So keep us posted on how you are doing!

NOPE, no way.
