  3. Before I Quit, my mom told me that she felt that life was not worth living for six months after she quit smoking. I used to think that sounded crazy until I quit myself. I felt that nothing was worth doing if I could not smoke, like go out, or go on a vacation. Three months after I quit I did go on vacation and I did struggle with feeling that something was missing even though I was in incredible, beautiful places. But this goes away I think through living your routine and new experiences without smoking and retraining your brain to see that the smoking is not fun, the experience is fun and you smoked because you were addicted. for example, last year I did not want to go to my friend's traditional Christmas party because I could not smoke while drinking. I went anyway. I drank lightly and had fun. This year I am looking forward to the party. I was very mean and cranky for awhile. I think it is important to look at how great you will feel and look as a nonsmoker . I am no more cranky or depressed now than I was as a smoker. It is a journey. Have you read The Easy Way to Quit Smoking? This book teaches a good way to feel about quitting.
  4. Joe, have a great time! Hurry back after for your upcoming party here :)

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.
