Nine months , full term .

Recommended Posts

Smoking used to be a huge part of my day . I didn't see that as a waste of my time or money or worth . 

It took me a while to stop the destructive romance I had with smoking , but with repetiveness I learned by saying no to smoking under all circumstances , that I could actually quit . 

I think so differently about smoking now . I don't see any positive things in it because I don't believe the lies anymore . None ! I don't give them power .

I , you ... we have the strength to say no every single time we are  faced with addiction wanting us back . 

 

No smoking for me today . I make a promise that I don't break and I'm happy to be here this morning . 

 

A gorgeous day out here , it's going to be a hot one .  A walk is planned for starters . I need to work on eating less and walking more . Depression can also lie to me telling me to eat , you'll feel better . Wrong , it makes me feel worse . 

 

I'm enjoying tending to my little garden here.  Nurturing and caring for it is producing good fruit . Smoking produced only useless ashes . 

 

Have a good day all . If you are new here we understand that " have a good day " to you , may be easier said than done for someone with a long quit , but please remember we were where you are and understand how hard quitting is . There were many before us , and many before them .

We also know you can and will come out of this strong .

 

Re birth is a process . For me lol ironically it was roughly nine months to get comfortable in my quit . Perhaps I was a bit overdue lol , by a year I hardly ever thought of the pain of quitting and looked forward to watching my quit grow even more . It's truly like watching your child grow from infant to toddler , teen to adult . 

 

Give your quit a nine month to a year commitment .  You will feel amazing ! 

 

Hang in here with us .. so many understand exactly how you are feeling . Post and see you aren't alone .

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.
