  1. I feel you - been there. Hang tough. It feels wretched for a while, but this worst part DOES pass… and then you never have to go through withdrawal again! If you hang on till you make it to the other side, you’ll be glad you did. This early phase is a combo of physical and emotional withdrawal. Your addiction is putting up a fuss. Be kind to yourself, cry as needed, mourn the loss… that’s all part of letting your new free self emerge. Stay busy and keep the quit!
  2. Welcome to the Lido Deck @QuittingGirl!! You are a great model of how perseverance and engagement here on the Train can help folks find freedom. Hats off to you, my friend!!
  3. I’ll plug in the disco lights…
  4. Welcome back!! So wonderful to read your post and to learn you are back on the path to freedom. The sleep thing sux for a while, then gets better. Radically reducing my caffeine intake helped (turns out nicotine accelerated how my body processes the stuff… it hangs around forever now that I’ve quit), as did good sleep hygiene (no screens in/before bed) and listening to audiobooks at night. Sleeping pills in a pinch, monitored by my Dr. It gets better after a while. Hang in there!

  7. And good thinking, @Brioski, to be fixing the plumbing…
  8. Looks like @Stewbum is really grooving on the drywall repair!
  9. Yikes! Whatta mess! We’d better clean this place up! I’ll take out the trash.

  11. Glad to see that you’re still here and still determined. You can do this! Cravings are not commands… they are just noisy commercials for s—t you don’t wanna buy. Change the channel and distract yourself with other activities and projects. Stay strong!

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.
