Hi hoojafudge, Welcome to this wonderful site, congratulations on quitting smoking :) it's brill that you've got to day 4, I had smoked for 35 years and never managed to stop till i found this site, if you have any questions, or need a moan, or have a laugh, this is the place to be.

Good luck with your non smoking journey, everyone here will help you all they can, if you need it :)

Hi hoojafudge, Firstly welcome to the quit support. And WELL DONE for getting to day 4. thats brilliant. Like Sue says this site is really good,we help and support each other, have a laugh , and even scream and shout, but we all have one thing in common. We have or want to stop smoking. If you need advice Emjay or Jarvo are usually on hand have helped every one of us to stop smoking. I am nearly 64 yr old and smoked from being 17. But yes I quit almost a year ago now. Best thing I did. If you go into the tags and look up jillys story you will see what I mean. This site means so much to me. Please join in you will be made welcome by us all. :)

Thanks for the warm welcome .ill bore you a bit more about myself lol .I found myself in a bad place a few months back I nearly lost everything dear to me through my own selfishness I was a long term cannabis user and was not by own admission suffering a mini breakdown I visited the dr who put me on anti depressants and now I regularly see a psychiatrist giving up cannabis im 6 weeks clean now so I thought what the hell give up smoking too as it was the only thing that was stopping me...honestly im proud of myself .physically I feel like crap but each days like a new beginning for me .

Hello Hoojafudge!! Oh my, thats a rather long name to remember!! Welcome to this site of lovely supportive non smoking people. Well done on completing day 4 and a bigger well done on making the plunge to change your life for the positive.

I'm a strong believer in plenty of fresh air and exercise, does wonders for the soul. I'm gave up 21 days ago today after 24 years of smoking... It's a dramatic change in lifestyle but i'm staying positive. Everyday I breath in just a little more fresh air and it feels like slowly I'm healing some of the years of damage smoking has done.

When I feel like smoking or need a distraction, I read all the blogs, write a few comments and the urge to smoke disappears..

Stick with us and you'll win the nico battle :-) :-)
