Unfortunately, we can't dispel your concerns about your home site issues. All we can do is offer what ever hospitality we can, given our resources. It is completely understandable that all of you are a little disoriented and/or anxious as these quit smoking associations are intensely personal somehow. Losing that connection is I'm sure upsetting! Having been a member of numerous sites, I can assure you, people are people and those that are on this journey share a special bond. No matter which site you are associated with, there is a commonality that is universal so be assured - you are still home with those who understand you :)

Hi everyone!   Some may remember me - I was here last May when the smoking forum I belong to disappeared for about a week.   When it was up and running again I went back there, (tw

Hi guys! Even after almost a year, I find I need my daily inspiration and reinforcement.   It's good to find so many old friends here. I hope to make new ones. And I send great big thank you

Hi, all!  I just wanted to let you know that neither Avian or I have any idea what is going on with QSMB. (Marcie is not admin, by the way).  We see the same thing you see and have no idea how to fix

Hi everyone! I found my way here too. :)

 

 

I'm very concerned many members, especially the newbies might be feeling vulnerable because their strongest support network has 'disappeared' suddenly. The owners must have a responsibility to either fix the problem or pass it on.

 

Anyway .. I'm glad  everyone here is so welcoming, looking after the refugee's from QSMB!

I agree! This issue is most significant for the newbies at QSMB. I can only hope that they do a little googling and find this site where they will recognize many profile names. I would hate to find that this issue extinguished even 1 fledgling quit :52_fearful:

As many of you know, I have been a member here, too, for a long time.  It is a great place to be, too!

 

Thank you, Nancy.....I mixed up you and Marcie when I was trying to think of the other admin! Glad I remembered about this forum although I now have two names on here...any way to consolidate (I would rather just be Rozuki) ;)

Hey Beazel. Your quit anniversary is coming up soon. I’ll celebrate it for you no matter which site you’re on!

 

Ty Nancy for the Staus update on the QSMB. It was so abrupt how the site just went offline like that.

 

Hello to you Reciprocity - Im here and thanks to this Quit Train for all of us transients! My quit date was February 4, 2017. I’ve just recently achieved one year smoke free. 

 

kind regards to everyone and respectfully,

Hi Nopester! Glad you made your way here! I, too, hope the newbies of QSMB find their way here. Would hate for someone to lose their quit due to the abrupt disappearance of their online support! I know I just celebrated my 1 yr quit and it made me a bit anxious to wonder what was going on over  at QSMB but luckily I remembered about quittrain.com! Nice place/people here!

I am another one who worries about all the newbies losing their online support, and hope they are able to find their way here to this haven with some familiar names. I originally joined here in May of last year when QSMB went down then, and I was only 2 months quit, and I PANICKED. I was seriously in tears, I needed my support group and all my "quitting friends".

 

Funny the connections we make during the throes of quitting.

I know Linn - I was absolutely devastated. I'm so happy with each member I see here!

 

Thank you so much Quit Train!

Glad you didn't lose your quit too!! I think I posted something about that in the "curse thread" the other day? (Off The Record page at the bottom main board)

I was not on QSMB much but was my first. When my only friend there got banned, I just didn't go on as much.

Of course she jumped off this forum soon after.

 

Anyways, so like are Avian and Faith on here?

Hi Beazel!  and all the other QSMB folks I see here. It's good to have a place to go and especially with familiar names!   I've missed the daily NOPE!

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.
