NOPE - I don't smoke anymore.

Welcome to QuitTrain, Daisywheels. I had numerous short quits as well. The support and knowledge I got at quit smoking support sites like this really helped me stay quit for good. Stick around. There are plenty of people here who will help you along your journey. Remember, a cigarette brings nothing positive to your life. Putting smoking behind you will improve your life is so many ways. You are doing a great thing.

Welcome back, Parsley. As everyone said, take it one day at a time. Commit daily to not take another puff (or NOPE - not one puff ever) and you will have this.

You are doing great, Blur!

NOPE

Congratulations Leanna! 6 years smoke free is awesome!

Congratulations Gordo! Half a year smoke free is a great accomplishment!

Congratulations GITW! 10 months is an awesome quit!

Narcos and Black Mirror are two of my favorite series on Netflix. Dexter is great too but the last few seasons loses a lot of its punch. I am also a Stranger Things fan. Awesome show. ?

NOPE

1709, 710, 711? This new math is really confusing. ? or ?

That's awesome, Raj!

NOPE Happy Friday, everybody!

Congratulations KT! 11 months smoke free is awesome!

NOPE

This should help, especially with the absence of Kris Bryant. The last I heard, Bryant should be back by September but who knows. Monasterio is a marginal minor league prospect but I hope he does well in the Nationals minor leagues. It was just announced that Yu Darvish will be out for the rest of the season. Not a surprise. He wasn't doing well when he was pitching for us either. Hindshight is 20/20 but I really wish we could have re-signed Jake Arrieta.

I'm sorry to hear this, blur. As others have said, education and support can really help you so please stick around and read as much as you can about the addiction. I got to this point as well, where I made many short attempts to quit that failed. I was miserable as a smoker and miserable when I was trying to quit. When you finally quit for good, that misery of fighting with the addiction slowly fades away. You will eventually be really happy you put this crap behind you but it does take time and it can be tough. I quit cold turkey but it took me several attempts to do so. I later found out that quite a few people on these boards successfully quit by using a NRT (nicotine replacement therapy). You may want to talk to your doctor about these if you feel cold turkey isn't an option. (I would advise strongly against vaping or e-cigs though) The important thing is that you don't smoke.

You do have this. Just keep NOPEing and you will continue to do great. You have made it through the toughest days. You should definitely be proud. I'm definitely proud of you.

Welcome to the Lido Deck, Grund! Congratulations on a job well done!
