Celebrating 6 months today! Not the penthouse anymore though :rolleyes:
The constant anger and bad moods are over by now, and I feel I can go back to being the Real Me again, at last I'm having a really tough time at work these days to the point I'm actively seeking another job - but still, no more having to focus on staying quit, smoking is never an option, hardly ever a thought, and when it does cross my mind it'll last 10 seconds tops. The recurring thought is of liberation, happiness and pride, no matter how crappy my life can seem to be at the mo :cool:
I quit thanks to myself but I managed to stay quit thanks to the lovely people in this forum, esp Boudee, Lindaspicer, NS4M, Buffy, Steveh, Barney, Poppyfairy, Sweet, Poskit, hbav, Kazza, Dossydo, Flippy, hbav, I see them as my journey buddies, even at different stages of the quit, and they were always there for everyone who needed them - the warmest thanks from the bottom of my heart x x x x x x

Well done Francesa and thanks for posting your progress here as it gives me hope for my own future.
Sorry to hear things are not great in your life at the moment - sometimes the blips take a little while to sort out - but at least you can add your quit to your list of successes.
Wow we were the A team what what? And all of us still quit :DCONGRATULATIONS Francesca ! six months is a incredible achievment mate. Way to go babe. xxx :D:)
HI FRANCESCA!! 6 MONTHS hunny - omg! I am sorry i am late, but I am still very very proud of you. What did you buy yourself? You are doing such an amazing job and you are shining through it all. You are half way to one full year You are an inspiration to us all and we are and always will be right here with you. CONGRATS my friend - you are sailing strong! Keep up the good work ~ see you in month 7
Wow 6 full months and almost halfway to 7!!! I bet you feel very proud of yourself and you should! Work is always crappy unless you enjoy what you are doing! Hang in there! I have never met anyone yet in my life that likes their job! What a shame huh? Whatever it is you are going through just hang tough! Show them who's boss!!!!
thanks Mary, you are very sweet and I appreciated your words very much
You are right work is crappy for most people and letting it ruin everything else in life would be a shame, I'm hanging in there hoping for better times...knowing for sure that in the meantime I'll certainly stay 100% smoke-free
Francesca, I just wanted to give you a quick personal tag (if that's ok) n say that there have been plenty of challenging times for me over the last 7 months - but that you're one of the most positive and encouraging members that I ever saw - n I wanted you to know how much you helped me!
Well done on your continued sucess - and keep bringing the newbies into the oldies section !
It's mint that you live in Italy ! It shows the (apparent) unity of the Union.
Regardless of what we think of that, we know what you are going through and are committed to help !

Aww I am so touched by your words, you have no idea
Thank you for sharing this with me, for taking the time to dedicate to me such a sweet post, I was in quite a forgettable mood until a few minutes ago but now you've just cheered me up like you wouldn't believe
Fran, I'm late too but that's normal for me! I think you should especially proud of yourself - you've been through some crap but you're so determined and so focussed that nothing will deflect you from your aim and that, my friend is worthy of RESPECT.
Complimenti. Hai fatto veramente bene, so che continuerai a fare bene.
Congratulations on six months. (I managed to reach 5mths last Mon) Hardly crosses my mind to smoke now!! Going on Hol on April 1st to Tenerife. I was bothered about keeping up not smoking in the sunshine but now I feel quite confident about it!
