Nope!

Still been a struggle. I kinda finally realized that the nicotine gum is just a tease and temptation. So I have finished my last cigarette and going to do this cold turkey. Anxious about it for sure but feeling determined. Everything else I quit in life was abruptly so I came to the conclusion this will be no different. Like @SD2026 said one time I'm an all or nothing kind of person so I'm going to use that to my advantage. Will keep y'all updated. Hope you all are doing well. ♒❤️💯

@DenaliBlues I'm doing okay still struggling but I bought some more gum today and started this morning. Doctor says the "widow maker" artery is 70 % blocked so kinda been sitting on that. I go in in two weeks so they can look at all the test and cts to see what exactly is going on and what my options are. Thank you for checking on me 😊

Starting now.... Not one puff ever. Nope!

Nope!

Congrats @SD2026 !!!

Nope! ❤️

I'm doing okay I hope you are well @SD2026 thank you for asking. Your gonna get that message that I quit 24 hours 😏

Nope

@catlover I see your point and you are right it could. I have to find out what kinda treat to get myself after the first 24 hours. I cut out sugary ultra processed junk food and soda about a week ago when I quit drinking and weed again. I'm very low maintenance lol. Not into gadgets or toys. Maybe something simple like coloring or something. I used to be a very good artist. Maybe go back into that.

@Doreensfree I just started the gum. I am really going to do this. I promised someone long ago and I have to deliver on that finally

Well I did good until about 5 mins ago. I accomplished something I have been needing to do for a long time and smoked in victory and since I havent had any in awhile it tasted disgusting 🤢 so I truly believe that's it for me my 24 hours starts now again. Thank you all for the support and I will def keep you posted

Thank you all for the kind words. I am truly trying. I threw myself into some projects cause I relapsed on alcohol and weed but I'm a week sober now. I did end up getting nicotine gum to help with cravings. But I will not take another puff. 5:30 tomorrow I will be 24 hours smoke free I will def let you know. Again thank you all it means a lot to know I have support here. 😀

Nope!

Not yet. I will say I don't really crave them like before it's more or less the ritual at this point so I'm trying to stay busy like weeding and cleaning at the times I usually smoke and it's helped me cut back tremendously. Soon soon I feel it 😁

It's going still no luck on quitting but I will say today I woke up with a new sense of self and I really think today is the day. I'm smoking what I plan to be my last cig as I write this. Thank you for the support!

Your right I do. I'm starting right now. I can do this! Thank you

Nope!

@Doreensfree thank you for asking. I'm still trying to get that first day in smoke free.

Hello nice to meet you. We got this! 😁 When I was younger I always said if I traveled over seas it would be Australia

Definitely. I mean my mom keeps cigs in her room cause she smokes in there but I am going to try my best to stay away from her room

Well I have an update. I still have not stopped smoking but today I am going to do this! I'm picking up my first inhaler later and it's just got me in my feelings. Like I have really messed up my life from smoking and I'm angry at myself that I never stopped a long time ago. Smh. I HAVE to do this now. I want a better quality of life. I hope you are all doing well and thank you.

Nope!

Congratulations!
