  16. Did you not feel that way when you pledged N.O.P.E. with smoking? Life will never be the same Yet, I expect now you are perfectly happy with not having to light up when ever there might be a trigger to do so. The same would likely be true with alcohol I expect. Tough road to get there but you WOULD get there if you wanted it badly enough! Quitting any addictive substance always has to be an individual decision. There are certain things in my life that I know aren't doing me any good health wise but I refuse to give up everything and just be miserable. These are all things only we can judge for ourselves. I hope you do what ever makes you the happiest in the long run! We can all learn to live without things we think we have to have but with me, it's not worth living if you're without everything that gives you pleasure & comfort. We all have to make those decisions for ourselves. I think it's a balancing act for all of us.
  17. Nope!

  21. You're absolutely correct. I was one of those inconsiderate smokers trapped so deeply in my addiction that I felt I just had to get me fix and of course I minimized the inconvenience I was imposing upon others - in my case it was my wife who had quit years before I did. I would justify my urges to smoke in her car by cracking the passenger window open a bit, thinking all the smell would be sucked out of the car. I completely understand the imposition I was making now that I'm a non-smoker but back then, my addiction was calling the shots; not me as a person! It's actually quite shocking how there are two completely different perspectives between a smoker and a non-smoker and you simply can't realize that until you've lived in both camps!

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.
