Good evening! Well done for making it 6 days without smoking. The first few are the hardest and it does get easier from there.

I am soon to be 46 and smoked since I was about 13. It can be done. You can do it. Just take it one day or even one hour at a time. Support is incredibly important so post as often as you need to.

Keep going. This goal is an achievable one. Have faith in yourself. ☺☺

Welcome to our community Lyricalteeze - congratulations on your first big milestone of 1 week today.

I too quit cold turkey and reached my 1 year milestone 2 weeks ago. It was the best thing I have done. You certainly can make it! Read up as much as you can on addiction and quitting and the pinned posts at the right hand side of this page.

We look forward to reading your progress

Well done you have got through the hardest week almost, drink lots of water and read all you can about quitting, and post on here as often as you feel you need support.
