Share your quitting journey

one thing I do to entertain myself is find out when the passenger trains went through Flagstaff

the night before, and, listen for the morning train to come in.

They let you scroll back 12 hours from the point of the live video and you can go backwards or forwards and stop at any time within the 12 hours.  I don't watch every minute but I'll leave the tab open and listen for the morning train. Did you know all trains ring a bell before entering and during their passage through a city or town?  

I grabbed some screenshots from the live feed. It rained in Flagstaff last night.

Hello, My name is Dale. I was quit 18 months before joining this site and had participated on another site during that time. I learned a lot there and brought it with me. I joined this site the first week of August 2008. I didn't pressure myself to quit. HOW I QUIT I didn't count, I didn't deny myself to get started. When I considered quitting (at a friends request to influence his brother to quit), I simply told myself to wait a little longer. No denial, nothing painful. After 4 weeks I was down to 5 cigarettes from a pack a day. The strength came from proving to myself, I didn't need to smoke because I normally would have smoked. Simple yes? I bought the patch. I forgot to put one on on the 4th day. I needed it the next day but the following week I forgot two days in a row I put one in my wallet with a promise to myself that I would slap it on and wait an hour rather than smoke. It rode in my wallet my first year.There's nothing keeping any of you from doing this. It doesn't cost a dime. This is about unlearning something you've done for a long time. The nicotine isn't the hard part. Disconnecting from the psychological pull, the memories and connected emotions is. :-) Time is the healer.
