 Hello darling smoke free creatures, 

 

Let me share some good news.

 

While I've been busy around here, 

reading deep down in the archives, writing some and trying to stay current with you bevy of beauties, 

smoking- nicotine-addiction and other keywords are not far from my fingertips

and float about in my head,   

what can I do, where might I be helpful etc.

 

but, hey y'all !   Yesterday I had a profound moment, 

I didn't remember.

For a nano second,  I lost the memory that I ever smoked.

 

This was highly significant.

I had to shake my head and remind myself, 

 

'yes you friggin' knucklehead, you used to smoke'.

 

I never thought that this would leave my consciousness.

Older quits have mentioned this, but I didn't believe them.  Now I know.

 

Mind you, it was only a momentary memory lapse but, it was my first and  v.  cool.

 

In light of this glimpse to even greater freedom, I wanted to share this with y'all  and throw some hope around. 

Living without nicotine makes life better in many unexpected ways.

 

I know that my quit of 5+ years seems like an unfathomable amount of time to younger quitters

but, don't lose sight of the prize, the years fly by, and you reap endless rewards. 

Protect your quits, be kind to yourselves,

S

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.
