Quit Buddies

One of the first things I noticed when I quit on this site was the elders who guided me though the first days and weeks and also teaching me how to navigate this site (we were on the old site which was easier then this one ! ) I clung to them as I got though the first weeks of my quit and they were there for me !

   Then I began to really notice the ones just ahead of me and from them I learned what to expect next and how to get through the tough times ahead . As some dropped out of sight I just kept noticing the ones who were sticking it out .  Some even had the nerve to call themselves "Happy quitters "..... I thought ya right will I ever get there ...I seriously doubted it ! But it was those people who I really followed I wanted what they  had ! 

 Then I began noticing the ones who quit around the same time as myself and suddenly realizing we were all making it together ,some fell away but some are still here today and I call them my quit buddies !

   If you are new here look around at the Elders for there wisdom ,those just ahead of you especially those you see that are really positive in there thinking and are making it .... the  "Happy Quitters" , and finally your quit buddies , support each other and hang in there for yourselves and for each other  You will be so glad you did !!!sayings quit smoking mice.jpg

I'm still here...I'm a 2015 quitter.  I plan on being here more now because I have retired!  I so miss Terrie and I pray that she returns here.
