Give and get support around quitting

Be A Support Buddy

I've read a few posts about having a buddy to call when you are having a weak moment and need to talk it out. I think that's a great idea.

I was able in the first part of my quit to rely on a close friend (not associated with this site) as a quit buddy. I know of some who have connected with other EXERS to fill this role. I can only speak for myself, but I have found that having a quit buddy was very helpful. 

Congrats on being two years quit, BTW! 

Are you seeking a quit buddy?

Is there anyone you know who's also quitting and might be willing to buddy up with you? ( I see from your homepage that your partner is also quitting- would that be a good quit buddy opportunity?) Perhaps someone in your family? In your social circle? Someone at work? Someone on this site?

Keep up the good work!

My partner quit in May of 2018 so it was easier for me when my quit date came. Now we've both been cig free for over 2 years.
