Why is abbreviation such a long word? 

6% CLUB = (those who have quit for one year or more)

Comma = 1,000 days smoke free

DDC = DOUBLE DIGIT CLUB (once a member gets to 10 smoke-free days)

DOF = DAYS OF FREEDOM (the number of days absolutely smoke-free)

ELDER = (a member who has over a one-year quit and offers wisdom based on their experience)

HALT = Hungry, Angry Lonely, Tired (Each one of these four physical or emotional conditions, if not taken care of, leaves an individual vulnerable for relapse.)

Heck Week = the second week of a quit

Hell Week = the first week of a quit

JFT = just for today

KOKO = KEEP ON KEEPING ON

NADO = NEVER ANOTHER DAY ONE

NEF = NEVER EVER FORGET (how hard it was to quit and that no one wants to start over)

NML = NO MAN'S LAND (Day 30 through approximately 130)

NOPE = NOT ONE PUFF EVER (based on the Law of Addition:  "Administration of a drug to an addict will cause re-establishment of chemical dependence upon the addictivesubstance."  Yes, even one puff.)

SINAO = SMOKING IS NOT AN OPTION

I'm not sure what you mean.  Do you mean you want a copy of Giulia‌'s post above or you want to be notified when someone replies? Please provide more detail on what you're looking for as far as abbreviated statements.

Hi Jessica.  I'm not sure what you mean either.  I think you can click on "Following" if you want to see if there are any new comments or I edit and add to the list, or you could bookmark it and easily get back to it that way.  Does that help?

Thanks for making these clear for us newbies... It's hard enough to figure all this site has to offer without being lost on abbreviations. Very helpful.

[Giulia]

Oh good!  Glad you found it helpful.  Hopefully when the site moves to the new platform, it will all be easier to figure everything out!

@CommunityAdmin Perhaps you could direct cerengay to the best place for answers to this question.

Hello there.  I've alerted our community manager, Mark, to your question and he might indicate the best place to find answers.  This is just a blog about Abbreviations.  Hope your quit is going well.
