Day 1 Cold Turkey

Hi, I have been smoking something like 20, 30, 40+ (if I'm drinking) roll ups everyday for 11 years and I decided to go cold turkey this morning, I have no plan, I haven't made any preparations, I had just had enough of it.

Could someone tell me how everyone helps each other out on here? Do I just start ranting in posts?

Rant away buddy. I sorta stopped the same way... Happily puffing away one minute then BAM. It hit me as stupid and futile... Never smoked again.

Tough as hell path your on. But it is totally do able and so very worth it.... You just rant when you need to rant, or vent or have a mad crave or have pulled all your hair out.

You will and can do this. I promise if you hang on tight this will be the best ride of your life.

Thank you Paul, I think this website is going to be a huge crutch for me, so I'm sure there's certainly going to be some mad ranting in the near future.

Yes. I found in the early days of my quit just coming on and reading about people who are having craves worse than me made me feel better. And also determined that if they could beat it then I as hell could too. Lol I can be a little competitive.

I waited until I was quit 30 days or something before I posted but oh boy did I read like a maniac...and that is what helped me.

I also knew if I ever needed to I could post but just knowing a whole bunch of random people dotted round the world were suffering like me was great. In the nicest way.

Hold on tight. Your quit is like a little baby that needs all your love and attention. Do not drop her.
