Congrats on 4 months Lilly -- awesome job!!!!!

7 years -- just fantastic. Congrats and make sure you celebrate today!!!

Well on Stand By Me I will always go with the original -- means a lot to me. As to Under the Bridge I again go with the original, never really heard this song before and I am surprised that I like the original since I am not a Red Hot Chili Peppers fan.

Awesome job on the 11 months Christa. Next stop the Lido Deck and those lights should be getting pretty bright now. Congrats and you had better take some time to celebrate (hey you need to practice for a month from now)!!!!!

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good for you -- glad to see you are still going strong. Taking some time with friends, especially since they have been where you are now, could very well help you in your journey-- congrats so far you are doing well!!!!

QueenB, 4 months already -- doing well. Congrats and make sure to take a little time to celebrate today!!!

Yes it is tough at the beginning but you can be tougher -- remember that. As said above Jillar's air cigarette can help -- I used that and it really did help. Deep breathing techniques really help as does drinking cold water (also juice for the sugar levels). Coming here also is important as you can see -- this can work!!!!

Welcome aboard Diane glad to have you along. I had smoked many years but on this quit I found this sight and it was a godsend. Lots of information to help educate yourself and a bunch of great (if a bit strange) people that are willing to share experiences that can be of great help!!!!!

Lived there years ago -- have to admit a place I really wasn't in love with. Used to work for Comcast out by ARCO arena.

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I myself went cold turkey but I have seen others use Chantix with success. Whatever helps you to quit and using the medical approach may be of great benefit as long as you follow your Doctors orders. Some that did not succeed with Chantix all stated that they had stopped using it too soon.

Treetop, 3 years -- that is just awesome to have 3 years of freedom now!!!

Attitude is the focus. Yes it is hard at the beginning but when the process has gone by for several months you can see how easy it has become, just put your mind to it and realize in the end it is the best thing that you can do!!!

Awesome job on the 6 years Pippa -- fantastic job!!!

Michelle, you need to focus on the quit. You have the knowledge and yes the determination to quit -- you just need to focus all that on to keeping the quit. As said above do not be afraid to reach out -- do not be afraid to got to the SOS board. We all know that quitting is a daunting task and we have all been there before and we can share our experiences with you and to help you thru the difficult times. All you need to do is focus and give yourself a chance. At least you are continuing to try and coming here to let us know -- good or bad -- so that shows there is the will now come here to this site to educate yourself and find a way, you can do this!!!!!

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!
