  6. Hi Everyone! I am so happy to have found this board! My last cig was Wednesday at 8:00 pm and it is now Sunday at 2:00 pm! I am on Chantix (started on 4/14). Other than being so tired (day and night) I feel OK, sort of! I have hidden 4 cigs in the freezer and have been tempted but so far I've resisted and I hope to stay that way! It really helps that my husband quit a couple or 3 weeks before me, cold turkey. Anyway, I look forward to reading more and sharing more since this helps too!

  8. We did a major upgrade over the last two days. My ticker isn't working either. We may have to use one of the free ticker sites going forward, or at least for now.

  12. That's great news @catsinnc! Sounds like the Chantix is really working well for you & that's GREAT! I like your comment about seeing yourself as a non-smoker and feeling good about that. A Positive, forward looking attitude is a huge tool in accomplishing your goal. Keep up the great work

  13. Day 5 and doing great! I woke up with more energy and did my exercises and feel great! Yesterday was the first day I was't tired all day so I'm hoping that continues! I still think about being a non-smoker all day and I like the feeling! Thank you all for your inspirations and cheers and to Mac#23....Go Bills! I was born and raised in Buffalo. Tonawanda and then Williamsville! Let's all keep it up!

  14. Gday Sorry to be blunt…. But your car doesn’t smell like you think it does. The flavours from the vap , be it mint or bubble gum are artificial. After being burnt boiled and vaporised they are now been stuck to surfaces with the glycerol. That’s also along with the nicotine. That’s the bit that I don’t like as an ex smoker. I know it’s there even thought it’s not got a particular smell. Nicotine just evil to my senses. Vap stores have that smell. People that vap have that smell. It may not be the strong tar smell like smokers but it’s still there. Me I’d be getting that nicotine out of my car and my life completly.

  15. Any time you are about to do something where you think you'll face triggers to smoke, try changing something up in how you go about doing that thing. For example; while driving it's of course critical not to distract yourself from the task of driving but, you could change up other things such as; open up the windows so there's lots of fresh air flow. Listen to a different radio station maybe. Change up your seating position slightly, just do smalle things differently than what you normally do. Small changes cause your brain to focus differently which can prevent an idle brain from going to thoughts of smoking. On the topic of your car; take the first opportunity you can to give the inside of your vehicle a really good cleaning. Get some upolstry cleaner for the seats if they're cloth seats and something like Armor All for the plactic & vinyl surfaces inside your car. And; clean the inside of those windows with glass cleaner. You'll be unplesantly surprised at the yellow yuk that appears after spraying your windows with glass cleaner. Having a fresh, clean smelling vehicle to drive will help keep your mind off smoking while driving! Or; use the money you're saving to get your car professionally detailed. It's a bit pricey but well worth it and you'll only have to do it once. Same thing applies to other situations where your brain might go directly to thoughts of smoking. Waking up in the morning is a big one for most new quitters. Change up your morning routine a bit. Even changing up the order in which you do things can help keep your mind focused on what you're doing instead of focusing on smoking. Give it a try and see if that helps.

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.
