Hi, im laura.

Im quitting for me. I am 24 and have been smoking full on for about 8 years, i tried my first ciggarette at 11. 11??? oh my gosh.

I have tried a couple of times, but now i doing it. I want to be happy, i want to live my life. I want to be able to enjoy going out with friends without having to be the only smoker. I want to wake up in the morning without having a heavy chest and sore back. I want to stop coughing. I want to do it because no-body thinks i can! I want to quit, because i know i can.

I dont want some silly white stick to rule my life!! Im taking my life back and no silly annoying cravings can stop me. This is the most motivated i have felt in a long time, if i can do it this time, i can do anything!!

Wish me luck.

Love, Laura xxx

Morning Laura

Like the reasons you've listed for wanting to quit.

It may help to write these down and pop a copy in your purse, or on your pc.

It might also help to work out how much money you'll save after 1 week, 1 month etc etc.

It might also help to look at some of the websites in my signature (and others) especially whyquit (where you can pick up a quit metre, which tells you how long you've quit for, how much money you've saved and how much longer you are likely to live.

Lastly, keep going everyday without smoking makes the following day easier to not smoke.

Keep on going, you're already doing it.
