Hi @dvs51. Welcome aboard the Quit Train. Thanks for this great post! Sharing our quitting stories is a great way to reclaim power over the addiction - like opening a window to let in fresh air. Who needs the self consciousness, the secrecy, the stinkies? NOPE! Bring on the daylight. It sounds like you’ve got a solid start to your quit. Remember to go back and read your wonderful quitting story the next time you’re temped to smoke. Your candor and clarity will be helpful when your quit is tested. Keep us posted on how things go for you. We’re here to support you - and your notes can help others along the way, too. See you around!

Nice to see you @AceWhite! I, too, need to fend off the occasional longing to smoke. So irritating! My addiction is always there, always ready to pounce. Like the dragon Smaug in The Hobbit… my addiction’s eyes may be closed and it may be pretending to snore, but it’s actually wide awake and could consume me in a flash. The Quit Train definitely fortifies my quit. I’m grateful for fellow quitters who help keep me sane and accountable. And it’s helpful to recall how truly gruesome withdrawal was. Go thru that mess again? No thanks! NOPE!

NOPE
