@Barb63 you can have one you're just choosing not to! You have the power not the cigarette. I quit because I had to too and had a hard first year but it was only because I kept thinking I was missing out instead of embracing all the awesome things I was already noticing from quitting. Hang in there, things will get better I promise

@Opah, every time you disappear you come back newly quit. I'm really concerned that that could happen again this time. You know we recommend sticking around for your whole first year and we do that because we want to help you get through most the triggers that can happen in a year. So please reconsider leaving and instead just use the zoom on your browser to help you see better. We want you to succeed!

I don't know. So far no...........

Hi Barb, welcome to quit train! Congratulations on 22 days quit, you've got the hardest part behind you believe it or not You'll find as much support as you need/want here from people all over the world so there's almost always someone here 24/7! We also have a great Social forum for those times when you just want to give your mind a break from the constant thoughts of cigarettes so be sure to check it out. It's a great distraction and helped me immensely I smoked 35 years and quit when my breathing got bad from what I was told was chronic asthma. Then I got a bad respiratory illness that resulted in respiratory failure last January and have been on oxygen ever since. So if you are already diagnosed with COPD it is something to take seriously so you don't end up like me...... Stick close and be sure to shout out if you need some extra support

Happy Birthday @bakon!

Such a great post to read @AceWhite, I'm really happy for you. Realizing that you are finally done once and for all makes the rest of your quit that much easier

Hi Robbie welcome aboard and congratulations on taking your life back! What I've seen with members here who suffer from depression is that quitting helped them immensely. It wasn't right away because we all have to go through the early doldrums of quitting. Some cry more, some are sad, some are more irritable like I was. But with time quit it all got much better

Congratulations on 22 days Gus! Your body is busy busy cleaning the mess caused by smoking and the extra hydrating is to help clean out the gunk Just keep listening to your body it knows what it needs be it extra water, rest, eating, etc...you're doing great

I'm here!

Lucky!

Congratulations @Linda on three months quit! Hopefully now you can have a little easier of a time knowing how awesome it is to be free I think its awesome that through your hard times you have still supported others, I hope you spoil yourself in some small way today
