I remember only too well how horrendous it was in those early days and weeks of quitting smoking BUT thankfully I found this community and although I was lurking in the shadows in the early days I was also reading everything I could find right here on this site which strengthened my resolve to kick the nicotine poison to the curb permanently it wasn't easy by any stretch of the imagination for some reason and I have no clue why BUT I got away from the site for a few days and on my 18th day I was ready to jump in my car and buy a carton of cigarettes SCREW just the pk BUT thankfully I remembered and got on line and finally commented on something I believe it was moody_9-18-13 told me to write a blog and say a little about myself and so I did and here I am on 2136 days WON! There were days I felt like I was literally crawling out of my own skin so I'd come here for support PLUS there were times that I wanted to tear my hair out or rip someone's face off anyone's face it really didn't matter who's face so I'd come here. I'm so thankful that there's LIFE after Cigarettes because it's worth all of the roller coaster ups and downs of withdrawals and moodswings and lack of sleep to get to that good place in your quit where you realize how much better life is as an EX Smoker Non Smoker or EXer it doesn't matter what you call it as long as you choose to stick with N.O.P.E and vigilance N.M.W......

I'm a proud Gram of 2 grandsons and a granddaughter and I consider myself a jack of all trades and a master of none, plus I enjoy reading and being outside and since quitting smoking breathing is so much easier because I'm not coughing half of my time sucking on a cancer stick....
