Hey Everyone! 

 

I am 23 and just quit April 16 

 

I found this site online and thought it would be great to talk to other people who are quitting or have quit.

 

Everyone at my work pretty much smokes, so it can be hard to stay away and say no.

 

I look forward to talking to everyone and making this life changing change!!! :)

All aboard the QuitTrain.

 

Hands and arms inside the car at all times. Please secure loose items. The Train will be departing for Quittsville momentarily.

 

Enjoy the ride!

EDIT: since you are the 111th passenger on The Train, The Sarge will call you "Eleventy One".

Welcome to the board, Anna!  You are so wise to quit at your age...your body can and will heal itself and it will be as if you never smoked.  There are certainly dozens of us here who wish we had made that choice.  On the Quit Smoking discussions board, there is a lot of great information to help you educate yourself about the addiction and quitting.  There are a lot of kind, supportive, slightly nutty people here who will happily support your quit while having some fun along the way!!

Oh, I forgot to mention, there is another forum where many of us pledge N.O.P.E. (Not one puff ever) each day, and that helps us.  Once I have made  my daily pledge, smoking is out of the question for that day...hope this will help you, too.

Don't worry about the Sarge, you'll get used to him!   ;)

 

Yeah - The Sarge - he is an acquired taste[1], isn't he?

Anna, welcome to the Quit Train!  I'm so proud of you for quitting at your age!   I'm just reminding you that if you find you are having a hard time, feel free to post an S.O.S  on the S.O.S. Board.  Congratulations on your 6 days!

Welcome aboard the Quit Train Anna, good to see you have already quit that nasty habit. I am a recent quitter myself so still dependent on the support and advice of the veterans on this forum.

 

It looks like you have gotten plenty of replies already, though I expect you will see a great deal more before this day is out.

 

When I first quit, and before I found this community, I spent a lot of time reading and educating myself at another helpful website called whyquit.com.

 

Check it out, there are lots of informative videos and volumes of great reading material.

 

In the mean time, the best advice I can give you is to keep busy, do things you enjoy, and keep your hands and feet inside the train car at all times LOL

Brilliant Anna, I'm so pleased you posted and introduced yourself :)  Was so lovely to chat earlier, so sorry I had to run off, think my littlies were killing each other lol. Such a brilliant time to quit, before loads of damage is done, I'm even more excited for you now!!!  Yeah you have the same quit date as Sarah and I am doing it (we shorten that to Iam lol).  I can't believe you found us via Craigs list, that's hillarious but go "Nosmoketiffany" as I'm fair sure it was her who mentioned putting it on there :)  I can't wait for tomoz now to celebrate all these 1 weeks!!  Speak soon. 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.
