  11. so agree with this. I do not believe in avoiding triggers. they will only come appear at a time when you do not expect it later when you think you are strong and you will realize how hard it is facing that trigger for the first time no matter how far into your quit you are. the more times exposed to a trigger the less of a trigger it is the next time. fact.
  12. hey hey its the day!! :)

  14. That quit is in the past being mad and stressing yourself out still about it won't help you with your current quit. It will only make you more mad. Dwelling on negatives is never a good thing and it's a sure way to sabotage yourself. Think of the positives. You learned a lesson. You're back on a fresh new beautiful quit and you have ALL the power to make it successful. That is awesome. Go you!!
  15. I think you may need to visit the affirmation post my friend
  16. You have to believe in yourself. Don't already be thinking of relapse. We all need to believe in ourselves. If we don't then it doesn't matter how many other people believe in us...it only has to do with you. :) “Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right.” ― Henry Ford

  24. Yay that is exactly my point :). If you think you can't handle the craves and aren't strong enough to get through withdrawals you're right. You're going to keep self-talking to yourself negatively and telling yourself how hard it is and how uncomfortable and unbearable and how weak you are that before you even get an hour in you already believe all of this as fact which brings on double the anxiety and problems. I think this is largely why this first (and only) quit attempt has worked for me. I am a firm believer that I can do anything. At first when I was contemplating quitting I thought it was impossible and going to be too hard. But then I realized I was giving this tiny little tobacco/crap filled stick waaaaay too much power in how think about myself. I'm way stronger than small tube that disintegrates when lit. And I decided I could do it and that I knew it wouldn't kill me no matter the cravings or feelings or uncomfortableness. I think how you go into a situation and how you talk to yourself makes the difference in any situation. I honestly have always thought that we really are our own biggest bullies. Just think about what you say to yourself during a typical day--your inner dialogue--and I guarantee if it were someone else saying even a fraction of those things to you out loud you'd punch them in face not even an hour into the day. :) be nice to yourselves people.

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.
