Thread: Day 1 No Smoking......

I smoked my very last cigarette this morning at 7:30 AM and I am now wearing the nicotine patch and chewing the nicotine gum.... God help my children!

You are doing it for your children. They will understand ... some day.

PS Having helped many quit I think part of it is psychologically obsessing ahead of time over the symptoms you will endure. I'm not minimizing the problem, just suggesting you move forward emotionally and view the future without nasty tobacco eating holes in both your billfold AND your lungs. Also try not to spend too much time alone.

Congratulations. Making the DECISION is the first big step.

Man you are crazy


Rock on Jason we are behind you!

Great decision. Stick with it. You have our support!

Keep in mind the reason you are doing this. Helps ease the withdrawal symptoms. Many have said this is one of the ahrdest addictions to give up, but the benefits are so worth it.

Hang in there Jason! First few days was the hardest for me.. I am still not smoking on my 2nd week... You can do it... I am pulling for you too!

Having a cold beer now with no smoking. Boy thats hard! I know I will do it, I am determined!

Coffee and beer was hard for me .. First thing in AM was coffee then a smoke.. Same with a beer after i want to smoke... I think you will do good keep the determined mind!!!!

Hell I would light one up in the middle of the night and first thing when I woke up. When I say first thing I mean before I even turn the light on. I just had a little din-din and I could really use a smoke but, screw it... I'm good!

congrats Jason! don't give up. i quit smoking cold turkey about 12yrs ago. i tried quitting many times before that but finally made a real decision to quit and stuck to it. what helped make me quit was thinking of my little daughters (who were about 4-5yrs old then) growing up into teenagers and start smoking themselves and me being the one that taught it to them. i couldn't live with that so i quit for good, cold turkey, never put another cig in my mouth and that is very important. once you allow one smoke you will do it again. i still have bad dreams sometimes that i started smoking again and i wake up mad at myself until i realize it was just a dream.

something that might help you stick to it is to have something made up like a certificate with your name and the date of when and what you quit, frame it and put it somewhere you will see it alot. it will help you stick to it and not give up what you started.
Good Luck!!! never give up. never give in.

Good Jason, please do not let down your God, your family, yourself and your friends!
I quit 10 months ago and I am so happy! I tried to go back last March but i couldn't, it was disgusting, so that means I am ready!
