You can do this.

Welcome Rosewothorne and congratulations on taking back your life

Welcome Rose, good to have you on board.

 

As others have said read a lot, post a lot. You'll get lots of great support here and hopefully catch you around the boards.

Welcome Rose. Being a nonsmoker is awesome, I recommend it highly.  And all the good peeps on this site can help you make it a permanent thing.

Welcome aboard Rose.  Go ahead and get comfortable and get to know  the site and people both will be a good resource.  Come here a lot to research and get support and I highly recommend doing the daily NOPE pledge, it has worked wonders for me.

Welcome aboard Rose...congrats in making the decision to reclaim your life...

Read all you can here...and watch the videos.... There is a ton of info to keep you going....

We have a daily NOPE....it's a promise to yourself ,not to take a puff that one day...

We quit one day at a time...stay close ..this train goes all the way to freedom ....

Welcome Rose.  Glad to have you aboard.  I hope you make this your forever quit.

Welcome aboard Rosewothorne! I'm curious as to how you are quitting ..... cold turkey, NRT products or prescription medications? Not that it matters - just curious. Also wondering if you used a support group like this one last time you quit. The support from other quitters can be a very useful and important tool in your quit journey.

 

As others have said already, educate yourself as much as possible about this addiction. That will go a long way in helping you to stay quit for good. Stay active here - it really does help keep you focused.

Hi Rosewothorne & welcome! So happy to have you here, hope you stick around!

 

 

Thanks all! I'm trying to keep a positive outlook on this whole thing and appreciate your feedback and inspiration. I am using Chantix to help with my quit and I did use a support group the last time I quit many years ago. It was very helpful to educate myself and read others' experience and ask for help when I need it. It was also good to be around people with similar situations. I was more a reader/stalker then and this time I think I'd like to be more vocal or active poster. 

 

All the best... Rose

Yes - be as active as you can - I really think it helps. We are also a pretty good bunch here. You will only get good advice and support. The goal is the same for all of us ..... we all want to be Quitters

Welcome aboard Rose and congratulations on beginning a new life of freedom.

 

The process of quitting smoking will reward you many times over.
