Welcome, @Anne E.! Start reading people’s stories. I found them the most helpful. We all know smoking is bad for us. It was everyone’s individual journey that gave me insight, and the courage to continue my own. Pick a quit date, decide if you need NRT, and just do it. We accept all quitters, no matter the method they choose. Stick around. There is a lot of support here.

Hi Anne E

I’ll go first-

hi I’m Ace and I’m a quitter- of smoking. 
Yup while I love a nice butt lighting one up just isn’t appealing anymore. How about you?

Like butts?

Welcome Anne E.  There is always someone tuning in at all times.  I think jillar never sleeps and is a wonderful listener.  Glad you decided to quit and have found us.  This is a great place for help and support quitting.  Hang around and get to know us all.

Welcome Anne,

I am a newbie to this group. It is day 13 as a non-smoker. Could not have done it without these people. They are some supportive, smart, and let's not leave out funny folks.

Dear Anne

This is going to be a weird question.  Does the phrase "be gentle with yourself" mean anything to you.  I once knew someone who used that as a tag line on a long ago site. Just wondering if you might be that Anne E. and we are meeting again by divine providence.

Welcome Anne. You will find support here for your decision to quit the smokes. It is different for everyone but none of us that have "made it have any special gift. Just want it bad enough to stick to it. Post S.O.S. if things get too tough before lighting up. Craves come and go but for me at least the more I beat them back the easier things became next time. Keep busy and positive. Think of yourself as a non-smoker because after all that is what you are and what you want. See yourself that way and ask for help in any way that suits you. Best wishes. Hope to see you hanging around and kicking this down the road for once and all.
