  1. This is so true. I used to hate it when anyone quit when I smoked. It was like it rubbed my face in how bad I was to smoke and not to be able to stop.
  2. Goodluck with your surgery and congrats on quitting.
  3. I remember 20 years ago I quit smoking in my twenties. I was feeling so lonely one night that I rang a friend. I told her I had quit and she said, “once a smoker, always a smoker”. This was very undermining. It played in my mind and when I had that first smoke I was so disappointed but thought “I was a smoker” and couldn’t help do it. I stay away from such people now and won’t let this sort of stuff undermine me now.
  4. 6 weeks is a nice number. Congrats. Keep going.
  5. Thanks Jo. I'm on the coastal part of Sydney so I'm not in the west where the bushfires are. It's been very smoky however.
  6. We've just had an Indian summer in Sydney, where we are half way through Autumn (Fall) and am getting summer temps of 35 degrees Celsius. It's been very nice but now will have winter soon unfortunately.
  7. I'm checking out goat yoga online. LMAO at this but the goats are sooo cute.
  8. Rest up. I hope the rest helps.
  9. Downward bunny or up bunny.
  10. I'm contemplating getting a dishwasher (non-human type) so I don't have to wash up anymore.
  11. Have a nice holiday.
  12. This is a pretty common smoking dream. I think it's your brain trying to catch up. I can't help you with recurring dreams since I haven't had them.
  13. This is a nice post. It rolls off the tongue, never, ever, forever.
  14. It is what it is. That’s all. ?
  15. The Canadians are probably dying in 30 deg Celsius weather. Are you Canadian reciprocity?
  16. Hey thanks Jillar and all you lovely peeps who responded. I trudging through these craves to freedom. I imagine it would be twice as hard without support.
  17. NOPE! Trudging the road to freedom, one NOPE at a time.
  18. Yes, yes and yes. I have been surprised a number of times about my urges so far into my quit. I figure if I keep going they will go too. Occasionally I post here when it feels a bit too much. As as long as we don’t smoke we are winning. A crave has no power/consequences unless we act on it. Just like an angry thought. There’s big difference between having a thought and acting on It.
  19. Australia. It’s also government policy that the price goes up every 6 months. Since being quit they’ve gone up quite a bit. Please see: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/australasia/australia-cigarettes-price-pack-smoking-tax-hike-how-much-do-they-cost-a7308381.html

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.
