NEED A QUIT PARTNER

My quit day is June 11. I'm very worried, I need someone to talk with for support.

hello

please talk to all of us here.

people in the same stage of their quit often let each other down.

running a quit on perceived unison is really rotten when one of the people dissappears after a couple weeks.

trust me, you need people to get your head in the right place not someone in the same place as you.

Jonescarp is right. 🙂  There are people from all stages of quit here, from getting ready to quit to years smoke free. 🙂

It's quite the place!

sadly its true, but you will  have lots of us here . like said beging quits, young quits and elder quits,  the support here is beyoun wonderful

Hi and welcome Read this book and links the exer have shared. It’s been a tremendous help to me, This Is my 4th and last quit. I laughed when they said read the book. How the heck is that going to help when nothing else did, believe you me, I tried several different methods to quit..  What, I learned from my last quit, NO TYPE of Tabaco is safe. 30 days free went out the window. The book and this group is a God send.

 The quit battle it’s no so hard when you have the right tools, because while you’re fighting necodemon, he will test you. Smokeless angel is your plan, distraction, and self- talk. Read the blogs to. Write them. I found inspiration from fellow exers,. If they can do it!! Staying smoke free, even when they could be having the worst day or their life or a very stressful one, the chose to stay free

You can do this, educating yourself, first is key. The book will open your eyes to the addiction

You will be embraced with support this group it’s beyond awesome!!

Hi and welcome to the site. windancer gave you some excellent links to read and Dale and Dawn are not going to lie to you. Pretty much all on this site are very straight forward about what goes on while you quit smoking. Everyones experience is different, the end result is the same, smoke-free. Take lots of deep breaths, drink plenty of water and come here often and blog, comment on others blogs and ask questions about what you are going through. This is the best place to be for support on quitting.

You can do this! I am into 3rd week of quit and it will get easier. Your right though there is always that fear of taking the first step and saying goodbye forever to cigarettes. Just keep telling yourself up to actual quit date, that you are an ex smoker over and over again, and it will not be something to be feared, but a new lease on your life and using the power to quit for good!
