NOPE!

Great post and insight. I too would always worry if I had enough smokes to last at work. What if I had to work over? Would I have enough? It was like almost a panic if I was running low. Now, all that stress is gone.

Love it!!! :)

Those rotten people.

If for some reason you started smoking again, no shame in coming back. The majority of us have relapsed so it's nothing new but you need to learn about this addiction and stay active to beat it. At least it makes it much easier. :)

I know for me, I'd much rather deal with withdrawal than any of the diseases caused by smoking. Actually, I'd rather deal with withdrawal than even having the flu.

Video discusses that the real roller coaster ride that people experience from cigarettes is not from quitting but rather from continuing to smoke. http://www.quittrain.com/topic/4753-videos-addressing-issues-early-in-your-quit/?p=136950

nope

NOPE.

Quitting smoking is really a simple process. However, "simple" does not always mean "easy". This video explains the difference between the two. http://www.quittrain.com/topic/4753-videos-addressing-the-first-two-weeks-of-your-quit/?p=136126

I haven't seen it yet but his death was unsettling. Always seemed like just a regular guy like I would hang out with. Didn't seem to buy into his own hype, although who could blame him if he did? That was a sad one for sure.

I watched my grandfather suffer for years with this. It's no way to live.

GR8 job!!

Awesome job! :)

Hi buMbLeB, When a spammer is flagged as such, their account and posts get zapped. Since the fake member was flagged as a spammer, all of their threads and posts automatically got deleted. Whenever the first post in any thread is deleted, all of the posts below it go with it. It's just how message board software has worked since I first was involved with it 15 years ago. So, whenever anybody replies to a spammer who starts a thread, the entire thread goes away. If a spammer posts in the middle of a thread that is not spam, only the spammer and it's post(s) will be deleted leaving the thread and all of the other posts complete. If anybody wants to banter with a spammer, just do so knowing that if the spammer started the thread, everything below it will go away as well. It's just the nature of spam and software. If there is an issue with a member posting something that is inappropriate for this quit smoking message board, myself or one of the moderators will send a private message to inquire about what's going on. If it's bad enough, the member will have the chance to edit it or we will simply hide it or if it's bad enough, delete it. However if somebody posts something that is harmful to any of our members or this community, I will immediately delete it. Having said that, I've never had to do it. :) Please read something that I posted when we first started this site but has long since been buried in threads. I should probably place it in our site guidelines. :) "As I've stated elsewhere my views on freedom of speech or more aptly, the right to be published, as is the case here, I'll mention them again. There is a difference between freedom of speech and the right to be published. Freedom of speech will only give people the right to make their own web site to express their opinions, but they may not demand to be published on any other web sites. A good example is book publishing: You may write your own book, but you may not go to a publisher and demand them to publish it for you. If you want to publish it, and there are no publishers willing to do it, you would have to print the book yourself and contact any stores and ask them if they would sell it. If nobody will sell it, you'll have to open your own store to sell it."

Nope.

Yes. The ts was a spammer and the account was deleted. :)
