Hi C,

Welcome to the forum and congrats on over than 2 months quit.  Actually, your brain is trying to convince you to have 'just one'.  Don't fall for it.  

Hope you will continue to visit here and read everything you can get your hands on about nicotine addiction.   Below are link to the may and June quitter group.  You may want to drop in.  Support from one another is so important.

Addiction Steals Our Right to Choose

None of us started smoking thinking we'd lose our right to choose, but that's exactly what nicotine addiction does to us. The associations we build up over time slowly weave their way through every activity in our lives until we can't think of doing anything without our cigarettes. This habit is insidious and tenacious, and millions of lives are lost every year worldwide to it.

Understanding Nicotine Addiction
The effects of nicotine on the human body create dependency through chemical reactions in the brain.

June Fume Busters 2018

Hey Michele, I've had a lot to do lately and not a lot of time to be on here, so I'm trying to catch up with everyone now and wanted to stop in to say hi.

Hello. I am new here today but as of today am 3 weeks smoke free. I am using patches and am hoping for success. I smoked for 22 years, a pack or more a day. Not real sure how forums work but seems like it might be a good support group. Thanks!

Hey June

Congratulations on 3 weeks smoke-free and also on finding this forum.

Here you will find all the information and support you will need to ensure that your quit is for life.  Read as much as you can and post often - when I first came here, I was told to post until my fingers hurt.  I did and it worked.

I would suggest that you make your way over to the January welcome group.  Here's a link:

There you will find a lot of information to help you in your quit and also meet others who are quitting this month.  The mutual support of others who are at the same stage of their quit as ours is essential as they understand just how we are feeling at each stage.  Quitting isn't easy but it is even more worthwhile than you can imagine.

You can do this.

Thank you!! 

Dear Terri,

Any help on getting information on how to post a milestone?   Eleven years and one day..... Bless the Forum for a life saved.  Thank you for all you do for our members.   Susan Meister Mayer   Susan1206

Congrats on Day 6!!! keep it up! 

I'm on day 4 and new to forums as well. 

My name is Beverly and I quit 10 days ago.  I quit for seven years when I was getting ready for and having children - it seemed easy in retrospect.  Quitting for me...another matter.  I regret the day I ever picked another one up.  But I am glad to find this forum because I am having some weak moments during the days even though I was only smoking about 1 or 2 a day when I finally quit.  I am on Chantix and I am so grateful that I started working for me about 2 to 3 months in - I thought it never would kick in fully.  I am holding on and love the NOPE mantra!

Sounds good.  The rules are very reasonable.
