Reciprocity

I'm pretty sure I've used over 100 today - so many likes, my mouse clicker thingy is tired :P

So happy you 2 will stick around even after your other board gets back up and running. We're a little weird here sometimes but we may just grow on you over time :D

^^^^ Well said J5 :) Education and attitude is everything when it's comes to quitting.

OK - I'm in!! NOPE!

Give her the old "quit smoking already" talk again too Doreen. It may not do any good but it'll make you feel better. Enjoy :D

Just remember, we sticks have the BIGGER SLAP!

Why don't we just get a double and share :P

Way to go Carsmummy :) Proud of you girl! That 1st week is tough and now you're through. Still more fight ahead but it will be getting more and more manageable as you continue!

-12 (Nice try Bakon - I saw that little slight of hand there :) )

That's what I was thinking - really bad timing!! Sorry it worked out that way. I hope we showed you a little hospitality anyway to help you celebrate your amazing accomplishment :)

Get a room you two :P

What the hell is going on in here ......... I can't hardly get a post in before I'm swamped with chick scores. This isn't looking good :( -3

Welcome to the Quit Train MM :) You've got a really nice quit going on there - impressive! Glad you could join us and will look forward to your induction to the Lido Deck in a couple of months :)

Hi Stevo. Didn't see a post from you elsewhere so, welcome to the Quit Train! Glad to see the daily Nope is so important to you :)

Love this thread - too funny :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

That's absolutely the way it goes CP1973 :) The longer you go, the stronger you grow. Every time you successfully resist that urge to smoke, you grow stronger for the next one and your addiction gets weaker. Just remain on guard tho as your addicted brain will try and outsmart you at some point of weakness you experience somewhere down the line. Just be on guard for those moments and you'll be fine :) I'm hoping Feely is reading your post here so she/he knows it is possible to get by that initial intense period of withdrawal and that things do become easier to manage fairly quickly.

Now, she's scaring me ..............................

First of all, welcome to you all and I hope you get comfortable here quickly. We are all seeking the same thing, to beat this terrible addiction. Please note, especially for those with "young quits", that we do have an SOS page here. You'll see it at the top of the main board page. Read the pinned intro there please (it's short and to the point). You'll also see a pinned thread called "Pre Respond to Your Own SOS". I would recommend that you post something up there that you can quickly go to and read should you ever have a moment of overwhelming urge to smoke. My recommendation would be to make your post long enough that it takes you a while to read it. Enough time for the urge to die down a little and have some content in there that will be compelling to you. Doesn't have to mean anything to anyone else - only you. Hopefully, you never have to use this but, it's there to help save your quit :) thanks, R.

That's the biggest benefit I noticed early on too Rob. That constant cough and clearing of my throat. Gone or certainly very reduced almost immediately on stopping :)

Welcome Doc. Great to have you on board the quit train! Glad to see you're so committed to making this your permanent quit :) We'll do our best to help you along any way we can.

Welcome to the Quit Train Feely :) Sounds like you're having some trouble getting past hell week. Glad you are determined to keep at it. Yes. read, read, read all you can about the addiction and Yes; it's all about the NOPE so keep pledging that each day. We will help you all we can but in the end. it's really up to you so stay close here and let us guide you along your journey :)

A big Quit Train welcome CP1973 :) Take your seat over there in 1st class and buckle in for the ride to freedom! We know how important it is to have a community of support here and I'm sure you were getting great care and advice on the other site too. Hopefully you'll feel right at home here real soon too. You've done a lot of the really hard work at 15 days but there's still a way to go yet. Stay close to us here on the board & we'll do all we can to help you along :)

Hey E.C. Welcome aboard the Quit Train and a massive congrats on reaching that huge 1 year milestone!! Be proud of yourself, it's a huge accomplishment and now you've arrived. So happy for you. I just happen to have a spot here on the Lido Deck all ready just for you :yu:
