Amazing Lottie! You’re an absolute star 🌟 !! So so glad you’ve cracked the smoking habit and like you say, don’t even think about it now. When you first quit you don’t think that would ever be possible but you’re living proof and that gives so much encouragement and hope to the new QS quitters! Stay safe and well Lottie, much love, Poll x

Thanks for the encouragement. I have about 4 months and having a depressive day. I am 79 and wonder if it’s worth it . I’ve been trying to stop for years and nothing helped. I wonder why I can do it now although I feel miserable. Thanks for listening.

Hi Roxie, I’ve only just discovered your post so sorry for the late response.

It is never too late to quit smoking, I’m not too far behind you in age and for me quitting is one of the best things I’ve ever done. I discovered this site by accident and with the incredible encouragement I got in the early days I am where I am today. I think the current climate may be contributing to your mood, it is for me. I’m normally upbeat but the lockdown and isolation is making me miserable. You have successfully quit for 3 months and that is fantastic, you should be really proud of yourself. Please keep going.

Thank You, trying to encourage fellow new smokers while yet dealing with my own anxiety and pain has been a test of my commitment to quitting. This is so real. I have never been this thank for people I barely know. People like you makes this community what it is.
