Good move you two, quitting smoking is a marathon not something you do in a couple of months; being here strengthening your resolve is smart. I wish you success.

I come here for support....to vent....to encourage....to listen and speak truths. I will continue to come here for my first year, because whoever I made this pledge to originally kinda knows what he'

I agree with everything you said.   I re-pledge my commitment for 1 year (I too already pledged somewhere else).   Sorry people, you are stuck with me for a while :p

There is no such thing ..as having enough support..putting them killer cigs down for ever ..is the main thing..

Do what you have to do ..to achieve that...good work ...

I committ to a year. My last quit failed at 7 months because of what GeaceLove mentioned. Complacency. Got too comfortable last quit, like, "I got this!" One puff later and I was DONE! WELL NOT THIS TIME NICOTINE!!! I got smarter and stronger from that last quit. This one sticks. I want to be here to support and be supported. NOPE!!!

Good decision! Having a support network as you go through triggers that may come along through all the seasonal changes is a good idea :)

I had the wrong idea.

I thought this forum was to tease the one they call "Bakon". But then someone mentioned trying to quit smoking. I thought, "Well, that is a tangent from the main point of this place, yes?" Then it got mentioned a few times. I thought, "well I just gave it up myself early October. Maybe I can join the chat."

The reason I am here - I followed a friend here (though she is presently MIA) but stayed for the mostly light-hearted chat. I am still not sure if this is mainly a "quit smoking board" or a "poke good fun at each other board" but either way who wouldn't enjoy it?

But anyways - I am not planning on taking up smoking again as there is NO reason to. I gave away my cigarette rolling machine and I am not about to go pay $5 a pack for some stupid nasty cancer sticks. So yeah, being on board for a year is but the beginning. Coming up on two months quit, the desire to smoke has faded to a faint background noise a couple times a day and lasts maybe two seconds.

I shall be here.

So glad to see your commitment to stay smoke free for 1 year...folks who commit to this..usually go off and have a great smoke free life...

We tease Bakon..O.M.G....I nearly choked on my breakfast... It's clear you have not read past posts..

You have alot to learn ...

I am still here because for me...this place worked... We do have a fun side...and a serious side...I feel the balance is just right...

There is a saying...Take what you want...and leave the rest....

We love our Bakon..warts and all...x

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.
