Find a Quit Buddy

I am looking for a quit buddy that will have a few minutes to chat, probably in the evenings, about our journeys to becoming EXs. I am looking for another college student, and would prefer to talk to someone else who is athletic. The struggle between being an athlete and a smoker is quite the battle! Feel free to message me!! Good luck!!

I'm also a serial quitter. LOL But I'm determined that this time is the last time I'll ever have to quit. I realized that I needed to accept my current reality, no matter how much I hate it, and learn to deal with it. I also realized (again) just how bad smoke smells, especially when it gets old. I quit cold turkey five days ago and I haven't slipped up yet.

Good luck to you!

Hi I am Sarah and on day two of my second ever serious attempt.  It has been so much worse than day one but keep reminding myself that this is the last day two I will ever have.  Gonna stay strong!  Been smoking for 28 years my mother has severe COPD and I dont want to end up that way.

Hi my name is Sarah and I am on day two.  I am determined that this is my last day two ever.  Sure could use a quit partner or two that I can encourage and could help me as well.

DAY 1 of me seriously attempting to quit chewing tobacco.  I've been lying to my wife about it for 3 years (even though she's caught me a few times).  Today she caught me red handed, and it hurt to hear her say she might leave me because of it and take our 5 month old daughter with her.  She works in a dental office and sees the negative sides of chewing more than I do.  I want to quit but don't know how.

I stopped smoking two days ago.  I have smoked all of my teenage and adult life.  This will be my third attempt.  Can't seem to get past five months. 

I am doing cold turkey this time, but I can't seem to top crying. I believe it is nicotine withdrawal.  It is very emotional for me because I just found out my mother is diagnosed with COPD which is what prompted my quitting.

I am just so tired of smoking..the smell, the expense, the health issues, etc.  I just want to get past the physical withdrawal symtoms

have cut back to 2 cigarettes a day. thought it would be easy. everyone but one person in my family is supportive; my teenage daughter thinks I am weak for not being able to quit cold turkey. even cold running water feels really hot on fire today. sweaty, shaking, miserable. i want to quit but fear i will fail them.
