I joined this group a while ago when I attempted to quit smoking, then I failed and didn't come back onto this site. I recently quit again - today is the first day - and what I'm trying to remember is that failure is not the end. Failure makes us push harder to accomplish our goal. Thus, I am coming back with a vengeance and taking this quit smoking thing a bit more serious. I don't know if posting on my first day of quitting is such a good idea, as I know that I have failed in the past and don't like to remind myself of my failures, however, I do think it's incredibly important to have support! Reasons I am quitting - 1. Time!! 2. Family!! 3. Health!!

Hi & welcome aboard the quit train hford :)

 

Yes, posting first day IS a good idea. Commit to quitting not only to all of us but more importantly - to yourself!! That's what is required an unwavering personal commitment to Not One Puff Ever (the NOPE pledge). Follow that each day and you will have found freedom from this deadly addiction. Sounds easy and it is; just takes a little hard work on your part. We are here to support and hopefully inspire you along the way.

 

You do need to think about what caused you to relapse last time though and have a plan ready to avoid the same situation again this time. Not a bad idea either to post up in the SOS page in the thread titled; "Prerespond to You Own SOS". List all the reasons you want to quit and make a personal message that will be meaningful to YOU. That way, if you are tempted to give in during the early days, go there and remind yourself just how important this quit is to you.

 

Hope you continue to join us in the discussions here - see you around :)

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.
