Sorry to worry anyone.  My son, girlfriend, daughter, and SIL were in town for over a week.  Turned off my quit site so no one could see the site on the computer (remember son and daughter don't know I smoked).  Having so many people around all the time definitely helped control the cravings.  Just like with having my wife keep my keys hidden, it really helps control the urges knowing if I smoked, I would come home and people would be able to tell I was smoking.  I'm 2 days past my longest period of not smoking.  Hurray.  Still having memories and triggers though.

You're doing great @JustinHoot99. You're going to have  memories and triggers for a while. We smoked for a lot of years making a lot of triggers to get past. Just keep reminding yourself that you got past that last one and can get through the next one 😊

Glad you're doing well and keeping your quit. Yep, triggers abound - this experience is a pretty intense obstacle course. But if you've made it this far, you've got the agility to go the distance.

Keep up the good work. The first few months are the hardest. Not sure why you would hide the fact that you smoked, from family. They are a good source of support. My kids are all proud of my quit. I will celebrate 1 year on the 10th. Stay close, play our silly games, and,  above all, reach out if you are tempted to light up, BEFORE YOU DO! we are all here for you.

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.
