Over 2 years and still going strong

Hi. It occurred to me that I hadn't been on here for a while and that I must be approaching the 2 year point. I'm proud to say that I've made it! It's not always been easy and I came very close to buckling to temptation but here I am. Healthier, happier, fitter and mentally much more at peace with myself than when I smoked.

I know some of you are fighting the good fight and it is really tough. I just want to say that I'm rooting for you and hope you succeed. Remember, if it doesn't work out straight away just keep trying. It took me almost 20 years to get here so there's hope for us all 😁

All the best to you all

Thank you Roisin. As I've said before, I don't think I would have succeeded without the inspiration and support I received from this forum and it's amazing people. It was a game changer for me, particularly during the first few months, and I will be forever grateful to everyone for their kindness, empathy and understanding.

Keep up the great work Roisin, you are making a huge difference to so many lives x
