Welcome back Mr.Piggy

Nope!!!

How about it @Linda, @JH63, @Judi, @Steven Drojensky, want to NOPE just for Friday with me

Just got my pc set up down here in North Carolina! Everything went smoothly at the closing!

Kids being more tech savvy than their parents has unintended results at times $20 bucks says a kid put that filter on his Zoom app lol

"I'm here live, I'm not a cat" is my favorite line of 2021 so far.

Linda Perhaps I did not communicate very clearly or perhaps it was interpreted wrong. It doesn't matter. Let's move on now. The basic thing is I support your effort to keep this quit going. Whatever way you want to get there is perfectly fine. Just get there. Last post from me on this topic. Best of luck to you.

Great to see you back Reci ..

Happy Friday!!! NOPE!! Not today

Thank goodness. Been needing some of that good ol' piggy humor!

Hey !!!!! Mr Piggy is back on board ...Well chuffed !!!!

NOPE!

G’day NOPE .....Not One Puff Ever.... (replace Ever with Min,Hour, Day as required)

You are right it doesn't matter, I think it was a matter of both communication and interpretation . Let's move on!!

Answer to this IQ test is: Amazing number of months you've been free. Congratulations!

@Linda I have read this thread. I am sorry that you have decided to pull back and not post your feelings here. But I understand and respect your decision. Some time back I realized that I could not make negative posts here without getting some replies back that I didn't like. I can come off very negative when I'm having a bad day. I think the members here know from their success at quitting, that remaining as positive as possible is the best way to go. Most of the replies that I didn't like hit a nerve. They had a truthfulness in them that my negative mind didn't want to hear. When I'm negative, I'm negative all the way! Then after some thought I would realize why I didn't like the reply I got. I quit posting negative thoughts as much as possible, and I am willing to let most replies I don't like slide off. All the people here had quits that were different. But everyone here has a common goal, helping others to quit smoking. If I didn't believe that, I would not log on here at all! We are both very early in our quits. I hope that you can get past this and we can continue on our journey together! If not, I wish you All the Luck in quitting this nasty habit anyway you can! Take Care! Jeff

You did not say you were dealing with depression, I was just suggesting it might be a possibility. You sound very discouraged and down. Maybe there is someone here that you really connect with and could private message back and force. I just hate to see you go it alone. Quitting for me was like peeling an onion. By posting my feelings, others gently guided me to look deep inside to the awesome and strong person I was.

Oh Linda, I think by leaving us, you are giving yourself permission to fail. Your depression may not just be connected to your smoking. You are dealing with a pandemic and isolation. Maybe you should see your physician about medication that may help balance that. I can guarantee that you will just sink deeper, if you fail. I am not ashamed to say that I have battled depression my entire life and quitting smoking was very difficult for me. I probably would not have made it through quitting if I hadn't found a doctor that prescribed the right medication. When you are down, you do not feel that you have the energy to do anything. What is great about the forum is that you are getting many different points of view. Take what is helpful and ignore the rest. We are trying to find the right words to help guide you through the tough spots. Linda, you have come so far. Don't make me come up there. I am right around the corner from you in Ohio. I have been looking for an excuse for a road trip. Hang in there! Keep telling yourself that "this too shall pass".

Hi family!! Thank you all so very, very much. I'm super excited, grateful and confident that ill reach a goal of one year. For today I will stay right here bc tmrrw is an unknown gift that I have no control over. For today smoking is not an option for me or you. I want to continue to encourage others bc doing so keeps me encouraged. So let's go and celebrate some other members!!! Catch that Quittrain it's a winner!!!

Thank you so much!!

NOPE!!

NOPE

NOPE...

NOPE!!!!!!

Copy That I will make sure not to be too friendly to you IQ

I remember the 6 week mark in my own quit. I had my last BIG challenge then. Maybe this is yours? I hung in and made it to freedom. What are you gonna do?

Welcome back @reciprocity

Wow Linda what did I miss here while I was running around in my loin cloth hunting those wild boar ! I hope you are still there, I just want to give this little piece of advice. No matter what happens Good bad stay with us, if you feel Ragged on address it if you get mad get mad. I have been on and off of here for years, and the reason why is I did relapse, I know if I had came back I could have addressed what happened and got back to it. I would be a lot better off than I am today. No sob story here, it took a heart attack for me to get serious about me quitting. and yes everyone's quit is different but please hang in there with us Girl

NOPE...

Thanks Jeff

@johnny5 thanks honey @Doreensfree Thank you dear @jillar Thank you so much Sunshine

NOPE!

Congratulations @IQ4me on 11 months quit! And thank you for all the support you give Just one short month away from your first year quit is HUGE so I hope you celebrate today

I remember belonging to a couple quit sites. A few times I left bc of hurt feelings. I don't blame the members, I blame myself. The only one /thing I need to really be friends with is me and my quit. Don't get me wrong, nothing wrong with being friendly and sharing a lil something here and there. I have a few good people in my life I'm close with and don't have a need to be that close with anyone here. I just don't. I will try to post NOPE daily, it's therapeutic. Have a great weekend guys!! And, Happy Valentines Day!!!

Hang in there! A crave isn't a command. It will pass - promise!

Being virginal can decrease reproduction LMNOP

NOPE!!!!!!

This is how I see it ... When I see someone post a negative post ...I try my best to reassure that person ... that quitting smoking is the most positive thing they can do ...for themselves and their loved ones .. It doesn't mean that person shouldn't be negative ....it just means I try and get them to feel better about themselves ... I have to give positive replies .. to spur you newbies on ... There is nothing negative about freeing yourself.... Hopefully when you have some time behind you ...it will come clear ... The old timers here ,who are still travelling with you newbies ,stay with one reason .... To help you quit this addiction ...

Congratulations on 11 months smoke free, @IQ4me You are doing great!

You're just having a bad day Linda, don't lose a month long quit because of one bad day! You REALLY need to trust us when we tell you it will be better, so much better soon enough.....

Ask yourself Linda ... Are you strong enough to go it alone ... Over the years ,we have seen those who stayed close to the board ...are the ones most likely to quit forever . Only you can make that decision.... We can only give you the tools to work with .... Give it some thought Linda ....smoking kills ...this is your life were talking about ...

Good for you guys .... Hey !!!....there is good stuff in little parcels..... Go show em how it's done Stumpy......
