“Nobody will protect you from your suffering. You can't cry it away or eat it away or starve it away or walk it away or punch it away or even therapy it away. It's just there and you have to survive it. You have to endure it. You have to live through it and love it and move on and be better for it and run as far as you can in the direction of your best and happiest dreams across the bridge that was built by your own desire to heal.” ~ Cheryl Strayed

@MLMR I like your attitude in that you put the ticker back to day 1. I see some want to call something like that a "slip" or something and think they can carry on with the count. The moment you smoke another, the quit is over. If you start again, you start at 0. Otherwise, I think the subconscious will use that as just one more excuse to have just one because "you can just call it a slip, it won't hurt your quit so you can just pretend it didn't happen".

NOPE!!!!!!

My goal today practice patience be a good listener look for the up side and smile often You are not a failure you are in the process of finding your way to success

Hey @JustinHoot99 how are you doing? How’s your article search going, want to share some of the things you are reading/watching?

Nope.. no freaking way!!

What a great post @breath, thank you for sharing it. I'm sure its going to help all those just starting their new smoke free life. Have a wonderful 20th anniversary and an awesome 60th birthday!😊

That is awesome @breath Happy 20yrs and Happy 60yrs! Great post.

NOPE

Short girls look so sweet and cute until you piss them off then they're like a chipmunk with rabies

My ice cream is in the freezer, where's yours?😂😂

Idyllic. And NOPE

Unfortunately its bound to happen this whole first year quit and truth be told from time to time after the first year. We need to remind ourselves that there's just no way you're going to go through every single situation over your smoking career that made you grab a smoke in just one years time. The difference with time under your belt is that they're much more easy to get past then when you were newly quit. And you know this too shall pass and you'll keep that awesome quit you have 🤗

NOPE…

Me too.

When you help other people you help yourself its impossible to not feel great when you do good for other people

As soon as I listen to music I ignore everything around me!!!

Sounds like you are in it for real, well done. Keep that attitude up, it will help you big time. I dont have cravings. I quit smoking three years ago and then messed up one weekend. Put my ticker back at day one and had to start all over. Hence the three month quit. The first week was tough, but I had the same approach as before, maybe even more ferocious: watching, reading, writing (did you see that enormous diary Introsucktion, its mine 😛 )about quitting. It was a close call. Never again.

Nope!

Excellent! Congratulations on 20 and Happy 60th! I appreciate your words. The personal stories on this site have helped me the most and yours today have given me so much to look forward to. I’m at 6 months. Looking forward to a year! Looking forward to 20!!! 🤗

@breath Happy Birthday & Happy 20 yr Quitiversary!! Wonderful, truthful, inspiring words! -L4L

I see so many and much around me as normal that I have never felt, I guess what other people would call normal. I am not going into detail why I feel so called "different'. We all have some issue to deal with. I just know that I have had a good life, I am happy with the life I have. It is nothing special to anyone else but me. I do wish I had quit smoking sooner, I think that would have been a better choice but I can't change that now, I can only change what I do now. That gives me some peace, some power, control of my future. K

Is your ice cream in a bowl or cone?

Well I don't think I'm sharing my ice cream, are you?

Kleptomaniacs just must use alibis story

Touche! Aren’t I much more chipper after yesterday’s sexcapades?😂😂

Luckily I had an easier time catching zzzzz last night finally

I wish zzzz were easier to catch

I wouldn't use the word on a treadmill unless it was raining or too cold or something ... and then I find myself clock-watching. Really, the love word comes from exploring the outdoors and nature - hikes, rides, runs. New routes are important - it gets hard running around the block. So I guess the love comes with conditions

A bit of both, wouldn’t you think? 😂😂

Listening to the sad stuff Last one I promise
