Hello Everyone, I am moving right along and I feel great! Thanks for all of your concern, support and encouragement. I've always known this was a special group of people. I now see you as a very, very special group of people! A few of you were very mad at me and many were just very sad with me! I am re-reading, as Jackie says Plan, prepare, practice to protect!

The craves and urges are way easier this time than the first, but my mouth waters whenever I smell smoking or a smoking person! That does not mean I have to smoke, I don't and won't! I miss my days, of course, I'd be lying if I said or acted like I didn't and we know I don't lie! I am enjoying my new quit just as I did the old one! If you are new here, please walk with me and we will do this Quit thing together. And for all of my very special "old" quit friends, I am still right here! Please keep walking with me!

I will protect my Quit with all my might! I am headed over to pledge! Please join me!

Don't Quit on your Quit!

Love, Terrie

Hello, I am a 59 year old female, name Terrie, still growing up. I have moderate COPD. I am an oxygen patient, currently not in need of the 24/7 or night time oxygen. Thanks to all the great support and education I got here on EX. My original quit date was 07/06/15 on day 519 I relapsed and started over in less than 24 hours. I want to go to the great beyond being a former smoker and I shall! COPD is not choosy! and not pretty! May 1rst, 2017 I am using Dale's suggestion to put off a cigarette each time and I am down from 50 to 20. I am looking forward to my old(7-6-2015)/new quit date 7-6-2017 May 4th, 2017 I started with Marlboro reds. Nicotine is a very assinine addiction. Once addicted I found I would smoke any of it including the little cigar/cigarettes, and it's still true since I threw away my quit and stopped being true to myself. I will smoke ANYTHING with nicotine in it to get the fix. I hate smoking! I am not having a problem stopping it's staying stopped, that I am not doing! I do not buy anything but regular tobacco but if caught without it I will do anything except vape to get the fix. UPDATE POSTED 04/24/2018: Getting ready to set a quit date and begin again :)
