Today is day one of my 7th quit. I had 9 months last time (its been 10 months of smoking since my relapse), 4 months the time before, 3 months the time before, and sometime between 12 days and two months the first few times. I had my last cigarette at 10 am. I am very happy to be trying again. Excited to feel as good as I felt last time. I am so ready and not scared of these first few days and weeks. What I'm so scared about is that I will lose it again. I keep thinking about it. But, I keep trying to focus on today. And how grateful it is that I am not smoking every minute. I already feel a difference in my lungs. I've drank water today! I excercised, went to a play, are good food, and told some people around me. I've never had an active community to talk to about this, but I think I need to. I just found this place. So hi!
This is my millionth time trying to kick these things for good. I'm taking Chantix which is working well for me but only this site that I stumbled across has gotten me through. I am 8 days without cigarettes and know that I wouldn't have made it this far without everyone here! Take the Daily Pledge, hop on the Freedom Train, read and post! We're all in this together, so welcome!

8 DOF!!!
