Starting Tomorrow

nsd_user663_64388 profile image

Hi Everyone,

I have set my quit date as tomorrow. Only been smoking for the past year but that is after stopping 9 years ago :-(

I have been surprised how quickly I got hooked again and how difficult I have found it try to stop. I've decided to throw everything at it this time...hence joing the site. I am using patches and have also signed up for Stoptober. Finding it difficult to get support as my family don't know I smoke, my partner has refused to support me as I have said I would stop before and failed and my closest friends smoke so tend to act as enablers.

Hoping I can get my support from here as I don't really feel I have anyone else to turn too! Sad I know.

Hey k8tjane, congratulations on taking the big step and setting the date tomorrow to quit, you can do it and just keep thinking how happy you will be after you put out that last cigarette, I am currently on day 11 and have got great support here, only found the site on day 7 so my updates are only from day 8, but read all the day 1 updates for support, best of luck and be proud!

Thanks rowens08. I intend to have a good read through the threads and tips on the forum. Well done for stopping and getting to 11 days...that seems so far off at the momement but looking forward to feeling healthy again.
