Give and get support around quitting
The June Quitters have arrived!
There are always new members joining the community. A portion of those new members haven't set or haven't synced their quit date to the community so we can help celebrate your milestones.
I'll be welcoming our new members and encourage you to get your quit date set and synced to the community so we can help you celebrate when you hit those milestones.
To get started you'll need to do the following:
When you log back in it will sync it over so it appears on your community profile. If your quit date is synced and you've indicated how many cigarettes you used to consume before you quit(update it in your community profile, otherwise we assume 20/day), your Quit Stats* will calculate how many days you've been quit and how many cigarettes you've avoided.
Be sure to check out our Getting Started Guide to learn about how to do other things on the site.

If you're mentioned immediately below, please check out my post above to set a quit date and then get it sync'd to the community, it's not currently showing on the community so that's part of the reason I'm mentioning you! You'll want it sync'd so we can celebrate your milestones and so you can look at your quit stats in your profile. If you haven't filled out your community profile or uploaded a picture get that set up too. We'd love to hear from you and see where you are in your quit journey.

I updated my quit date. I am happy to say I'm 47 days into my quit. I came here not for help quitting, but for help managing the emotional and mental aspects. I don't want a cigarette but I am having a hard time with anxiety, depression, loss of appetite, and muscle aches; all intensified after I quit. I've read some great posts that have already helped me get through some rough times.
I am the same although I am 7 Days quitting, I have bad muscle fatigue in my arms and legs and restless leg syndrome, almost all day everyday so far. I have alot of Anxiety so I know what you mean.

Congrats on your 7 days quit! That's an accomplishment. Hopefully those feelings you're having will go away and things will be more restful for you soon.

My quit day is today!!! Yay! I am excited to be free of this addiction. I am prepared for the voices and have let my people know what I’m doing. So far so good. One craving at a time.
Congrats on day 1. Keep that positive attitude moving forward.
