Sazerac Quit Date: October 23, 2013, A Good Day to be Free. Posted July 10, 2018 Some quit on a whim, others quit making a sensible plan and map it all out as best they can. There are many successful quits between the extremes. The important bit is the seminal moment in your life when you say, 'I quit smoking'. I spontaneously said, 'I've quit. If I don't feel better in a few days, I can always smoke but, let's see your mettle and give this an honest try' I had no idea the process took a lot longer than a few days. I had no concept at all about nicotine addiction. I was supremely ignorant. To be honest, it actually takes nicotine a lot longer than a few days to completely leave your body. Think about it...we have nicotine infested tar in our lungs clinging to our cilia. Tar, ffs. This doesn't disapate in a few days. Ever have tar on your feet ? It takes a solvent like gasoline to remove it. The miracle is that our bodies do purge themselves of most. Still, remnants remain. Remants remain forever in our DNA. A sobering fact. After a few days, gathering more knowledge about addiction, I extended the premise of starting smoking again 'if I don't feel better in ...days...weeks...' Some days, I thought, if I don't feel better in five minutes I can always smoke. There were many times when acknowledging the choice saved my quit. My decision to quit smoking held and my resolve to commit to this choice grew minute by minute. It grew by quantumn leaps every damn crave I beat. I'm sharing this thinking about new quitters and smokers on the fence, before the choice to quit becomes clear and non negotiable. You may not have a serious dose of resolve about your decision to quit. Do not worry about this, resolve grows with knowledge and time. After a while there should be no turning back, you will know too much and will have a deeper power committing to your decision. This decision to quit smoking is one of the best decisions you can make in your life. It teaches you about commitment. It nurtures your self respect, self confidence. It saves your life.

Markus Quit Date: 02-19-2008 Posted April 13, 2014 Want to quit smoking? Good. That takes some nerve and that alone is enough to get it done. You don't have to be smart, you just need to use the courage and will that you have, in the right way, and get that brain of yours aligned to make it happen. Just quit. Do it now. There, you just quit. It's that easy. Now you are craving a smoke of course. It gets better, just as soon as you set your mind to being a non smoker and you free yourself from yourself, and from how you choose to live your life. This place cannot help you quit, it can't give you a quit, and it can't keep you quit. Only you can do that, and it's a choice. Either smoke. Or quit. The only thing that can happen to you here is to get encouragement and support. All that people here can do for you is to tell you how and to promise you that it can be done. You are absolutely going to have to hold yourself accountable and commit to staying quit, all on your own. This place can be effective in teaching you how to start walking after you've been crawling (quit) on your own, if you use it the right way. Understand that you are an addict first, and that's why you smoke because smoking is your answer to everything. If you are quitting you should realize that smoking is the answer to nothing. This also includes the journey ahead of you. A cigarette will never be the answer to anything you need. Link to original post: https://www.quittrain.com/topic/589-want-to-quit-smoking-consider-this/
