  6. Welcome to QuitTran, Kat. Prior to quitting for good, I had many short quits like yourself and kept falling for the mindset of "one last smoke or one last pack isn't that big of a deal." Truth is, it is a big deal. As long as you keep feeding your nicotine addiction, you will continue to crave another one. What you have to do is break free of that mindset and to do that, you simply need to not smoke. It was scary for me at the time as well but it is very doable and quitting smoking is one of the most rewarding things you can do. As Sazerac posted above, read and learn as much as you can about nicotine addiction. The more you know about it, the better equipped you will be to defeat the addiction. Read up, post and participate here. The are a lot of informative posts here as well as plenty of fun and games that can help distract you in the early days of your quit. It was a forum like this that really helped me in the early stages of my quit. Do whatever you need to do as long as you don't light up. The longer you go without a cigarette, the better things will get. Welcome to the board, Kat. It is great to have you here.
  7. That's so awesome, Phil. I'm really happy for you. Quitting smoking improves your life in so many ways.
  8. NOPE - Not One Puff Ever! Happy Friday, everybody!
  9. Wrong Turn (the original) was quite good. I didn't realize it had that many sequels though. I also liked Final Destination, although I haven't seen Purge. I saw the late '70's horror film Suspiria a few nights ago on TCM of all places...really weird and creepy movie. I've also watched some '80's horror this October - An American Werewolf in London, The Howling, Poltergeist, The Shining, and Hellraiser so far. October is a good movie month.

    Same here. I got home from work just in time to catch the first inning. It was something like 7-0 with one out. I don't know why I'm still watching. Yikes.
  11. NOPE - I don't smoke anymore.
  12. Congratulations on 4 years smoke free, @Cbdave I hope you celebrate big today.

  14. Great job fighting through this, Juan. Keep up the great work.
  15. Welcome aboard, @Vivianne You are doing a great thing by quitting smoking. Try to focus on the positives which you will eventually find out far outweigh the early, short-term negatives. There really is nothing at all positive about smoking but a lot of positives to putting smoking behind you for good. Joel Spitzer's videos are definitely worth your time but if you can access Allen Carr's book, "The Easy Way to Quit Smoking", I would also recommend that. It really helped me see smoking in a different way and was a good resource in my quit. Stick close to this site. There is a lot of knowledge, fun, and distractions to help you. It is great to have you here.
  16. I also hope you are having a better day today, Abby. Keep fighting and you are right - smoking will not help at all. Stay strong and keep the quit.

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.
