Well I have finally figured out what I'm doing hmm I think. I live in Northeast Texas Friday the 27 is my quit day. Gosh I pray I can do this. Its alot easier thinking about not smoking then really doing it. But I cant give in I dont want to be a withdrawl junkie and I know I will never stop trying.I am tired of abusing myself by starting and then giving in. and tired of being chained to a stick that doesnt even taste good. I could use support buddies . Thats another thing that is hard for me asking for help LOL Its easier to give it then to ask for it. Im 44 and not getting any younger and would like to really start enjoying a free life. Its good to be here .

Hi Renee! You CAN do this! This is a great place for support and also a great place to reach out and help others! I've found that I have had to be mentally tough and constantly remind myself that smoking is NOT an option. That thought eliminates all excuses and reminds me that this is it -- FINAL! My choice of weapons are cinnamon sticks, water, oranges, carrots, a rubber band on my wrist that I can snap, a sense of humor and support from my friends and this site. Way to go on day one!! Keep it up and keep coming back!!
