Day 1

nsd_user663_deleted profile image

Day 1 is only just starting but this Day 1 feels different to the other 8,756 I have had. Maybe it's because it's the first time I have wanted to quit, rather than just feeling like I should quit :)

The long road to Freedom ...

Hi Karri,

Get the feeling you've been here before, perhaps not, but I do know that today has got to be the first step of a long journey, and one on which I wish you all the strength, support and belief that you have quit for the final time and ahead of you lies a fag-free future filled with chances and opportunities spent on the years that you have just got back into your life, but previously did not exist, because the smoking cut them short.

Your life has opened up to endless possibilities and I think that is SO exciting! May I wish you all the luck in the world, happiness, freedom and future!

All the best,

Fintan xx

Hi Karri

I'm quite new to forum and posted earlier that I have quit a million times before also, but this time feels so different as well. I don't know if its the patches working well, or if its just my frame of mind, but I seem to be coping much better and enjoying the freedom.

My best wishes to you for a successful quit

You only have to be successful once! x. :)

Good on you!

I am glad you are trying again Karri!

You at least, as Austin says, can draw on past experience to help you. As Becky says wanting to quit is half the battle. Good luck and I know that you will have lots of people on here supporting you and wanting you to be successful:)

Good luck Karri.

Hope all goes well this time for you. This quit is also one in a long train of many past attempts for me too, but this feels different too as it's the first time I really believed in my heart of hearts that I won't smoke again. Hopefully this time will be the one for you too. Cheering you on from my living room xx

Karri, that's so awesome, I'm beyond pleased to watch you do this! Don't worry about what might happen when you slow down..... don't imagine things as they may just come true..... just see it being doable all the way! Or alternatively just keep busy haha

Just popped in on one of my flying visits and saw this post.

This is so fantastic Karri - very happy you're going for it again. Am pretty sure you'll crack it this time.

Have a great weekend and I'll be back again on Monday to check the progress...:D
