Prayers for your brother Jimmy. I hope he gets the help he needs.

None of us realize just what we are exposing ourselves to when we start smoking and even while we continue to indulge in that horrible addiction. Unfortunately we all live in self denial while we continue to expose ourselves to so much potential health implications.

So sorry Jimmy.  I am definitely sending prayers your way.  

Reading this, I am so grateful that I was able to find the help here that I needed to quit.

Prayers out to Eric and your family, Jimmy.

Smoking is such a horrible addiction. Many addictions today overcome the life and the being quickly. Many times nicotine takes years to damage the body so we think it will never happen to us,  until it does. 

Keep us posted. I feel confident that your brother will get what he needs. Hopefully he never smokes again.

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.
