I smoked my last few cigarettes sitting on my back step ,crying I was given a ultimatum... Smoke or face amputation...
I was devastated... All my other attempts to quit has failed...but...I had to try something... I was so desperate to succeed..
Tony had already been diagnosed with emphysema... And I still smoked...because I believed I couldn't quit...
I had been given a old battered I pad to play about on,as I was not savvy...I decided to Google anything on the internet,that may give me some help I desperately needed..
I can across a forum...thought what have I got to lose ...somehow I managed to sign in ....and watch and listen....
A kind lady ...sent me a message today hello ...I explained to her I couldn't give me a name a ticker nothing...this lady took me under her wing ,set me up and running...I will always be in Nancy,s debt...my fairy godmother...
It was a while before I posted I just watch and learned...I didn't sleep at all for a few weeks I read instead....
I Did my Daily NOPE...the days turned into weeks then into months...there was plenty of up and downs ,but I knew I had to plough on ,and as I was assured my those with more quit ..it would pass....
I was so proud to reach the Lido Deck....and I still feel that sense of pride ,4 yrs later..
Joining a forum ,posting ,making friends ,has made the difference to my having another failed quit ..to my success..
I have also been taught some niffty PC skills...
I love being smoke free...and all the folks who follow me ,I want them to feel it too
I wish to Thank Everyone who has sat on the train...newbies not so newbies ..oldies...
You have helped me continue on my journey ..and I hope i have helped you in yours..
And all the folks who jump on the train in the future...
You can do it...I did !!!!
