I too am 9 months clean as of yesterday! Don't mind saying its all become a little easy for this previous secret and olympic smoker. Never thought i'd get here, in such a positive manner, and now I have I am most annoyed I never found this mindset before.

Thanks again for all the super support and entertainment, this forum is now my 'new addiction'! xx

Wow girl, look at you, sooooooo on your way to the Penthouse.

As you so rightly point out it is so much in the mind, once you get past the early days.

I was wondering if we should start a forum, kinda a self help place to wean us off the addiction that is the NSD forum:eek:

Not long before the dream becomes a reality I promise you!

Bev, sounds good, but will we not then transfer our addiction to the self help none addiction site in a hole in the bucket type of way?? :confused:

ahh awesome !!! 9 months.. 3/4 of a year... and feeling so much better i bet!!!

I wouldn't be annoyed at not finding the mindset before though fi, what matters is your experience from previous quits helped to make THIS one the one that stuck.

Nicely done.

Well done Fi! I think they had better start work on that extension to the penthouse, I'm not sure they'll be room come the start of next year!!

I know exactly what you mean about being annoyed you hadn't found this mindset earlier - think of the money we could have saved!

Still let us just congratulate ourselves and blow that trumpet loudly that at last we have achieved something we thought we never would!

Keep up the good work Fi:D:D

Congratulations Fiona! Getting to 9 months must feel brilliant!!!

I realised this morning it's not just the money I've saved from fags...it's the fuel getting me to the shops to buy them as well, I haven't been out for ages! :D

WOW I'm not on my own!!!!

have to keep my fan on all night. I am also having weird dreams. I was a smoker of 35 cigs for 20...

My own fault so off line for a bit

just wanted to let you know, will be away from the forum for a while Keep going every one

Going against my own principles...

My quit has mostly consisted of trying not to count days, money and all that other wonderful stuff.
