don't want to change my drinking habits-   not possible first few weeks if not months

 

don't want to struggle-  then put it in your head quiting is not a struggle. Make it fun. Enjoy "the pain" Feel the Heal.

 

have a party coming up-  perfect place to go smelling clean and telling everyone you quit.

 

 

Give me an reason/excuse for your failure and we will tell you the fix.

 

 

Post your own reason you waited and what you would say to yourself now

 

I want to quit but....

 

 

my cat food bill will go up because I can afford more cats.....start bringing home dogs, the cats will leave.

I want to quit but...what on earth will I do with the $260 a month savings?  Not to mention the $50.00 a month savings on life insurance?  And what in God's name will I do with all the time on my hands?  Won't I miss the stench, the dry skin and people avoiding me?  How about that hacking cough that wakes me up at night?  How about if I just drag this out until it is too late?

I want to quit but all of my friends smoke. Who will I hang out with or have coffee with?

BS!!!

 My friends are envious that I am smoke-free! Some are even contemplating quitting themselves.

I can still have coffee with smoking friends. Just don't blow that stench in my face  <_<

Oh, and the coffee tastes fabulous now that I can REALLY taste it  :rolleyes:

I want to quit but my life is so stressful right now - life is always going to be a little stressful!

 

I want to quit but I cant drink and not smoke - umm yes you can and the hangovers are so much easier!

 

Im going on holiday/vacation I will never be able to lie on the beach without smoking - umm yes you can and will enjoy it more!

 

Im fit and healthy I will quit when I have to or I feel ill - umm too late by then!

....I might fail.

 

...i enjoy it.

 

...we all have to die sometime.

 

  • Yes. I might fail. So worst case - I am back where I started.
  • Enjoy what? The bad smell? the bad taste? the expense? the certain death? the ill health? - or the illusion that relieving withdrawal pangs is a genuine pleasure?
  • Yes. I will die. I fully intend to die having wrenched every last bit of fun from every last second of life...none of it on an oxygen machine.

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.
