12/13/08 12:45	Tags : None A New Year's Invitation to Freedom from Nicotine Welcome to Freedom! We're glad you found us. As you may know, New Year's Day is by far the biggest quitting day of the entire year. Each year at this time our members reach out to invite those hooked on nicotine to ponder the possibility that 2010 might just be their year to at last taste freedom. They know it won't be easy to connect but they give it their best effort. The past four years we've used Freedom member submissions to build a "brutal honesty" theme page sharing the slim annual odds of figuring things out on your own, together with the keys to lasting freedom. This is the link to the WhyQuit page where New Year's messages have been shared since December 2004 and that will again be used this year: http://whyquit.com/NewYears2005.html Although it is an old page, in that it has a rather high ranking in most search engines we'd be insane not to update and use it again. If you are a visitor, we invite you to explore Freedom and WhyQuit (www.WhyQuit.com) and discover the power of knowledge, understanding and highly focused support. If a posting member here at Freedom, please consider sharing your message with 2010 New Year's quitters. Your below message will be added and shared on the above page at www.WhyQuit.com . If a non-posting regular you can e-mail us your message at managers@whyquit.com . This really is a great opportunity to attempt to reach out and connect with our brothers and sisters still in bondage. Please include the name you'd like used and the city and/or nation in which you reside. Doing so increases the odds that you'll connect with someone in your nation or region. Please note that although readership here at Freedom is historically low during mid-December, it is tremendously high on New Year's Day. By January 3rd or 4th it isn't unusual for us not to have room for all who will apply for posting privileges. Experience has taught us that when too many new quitters are admitted that meaningful learning ceases and chaos develops, as the number of new arrivals seeking support out-strip the forum's ability to provide it. Believe me, there's no worse feeling than seeing scores of new member posts with almost no replies, as the nearly dead fingers of the forum's golden givers can no longer keep pace. The flood of applications usually begin arriving at 72 hours - Jan. 3 & 4th. In sharing your message please try not to focus too much on elevating the need or fostering a desire to post at Freedom's messageboards as being central to successful recovery. Instead picture Freedom's classroom windows thrown wide open with hundreds or even thousands of new arrivals looking in. Together we can and are making a difference! Breathe deep, hug hard, live long Freedom! John (Gold x10) Last Edited By: FreedomNicotine 07/06/09 05:26. Edited 3 times.

12/23/04 07:00	I remember thinking "I really should quit smoking", maybe I even briefly tried for half a day or so one New Year's Day. About 12 years ago! If I had quit then, the worry I could have saved myself about every bit of pain (is it cancer?), the money I would not have spent and the years of calmness and peace I could have had.... The brief struggle through withdrawl would be in the distant past for me, rather than just 10 weeks ago. So, if you don't want to ponder on "what ifs" in 10 or 15 years from now, the time to quit is NOW. The addiction will not just go away one day. You have to commit to never take another puff. One day at a time. Please believe me when I say that there is nothing to give up! Grateful to be quit for 2 months, 1 week and 2 days, not smoking 1600 cigarettes, saving AU$360

12/23/04 07:28	THE JOYS OF QUITTING: FREEDOM, SWEET FREEDOM, from guilt, from always thinking I should quit, from feeling like a loser junkie, from low self-esteem, from embarrassment, from perceived ridicule by the intelligent, non-smoking community, from never-ending messages from my family that I should quit smoking; SO MUCH MONEY IN MY POCKET, at this rate of savings because of the high cost of cigarettes, I will have saved enough, should I chose to do so, for a vacation for 2 weeks to Aruba in a 5 star hotel! I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER, after just a short time, I feel cleaner, healthier, I have more energy, but I think most importantly, I feel so much better about myself. THE JOY OF FLAVOR, as food has "come alive" again. I had been missing so many of the wonderful, delicate flavors...I just never knew they were there! Raspberry is now one of my favorite flavors...how sweet it is! SO VERY MANY, MANY MORE..... Julie One week, 2 days, 14 hours

12/23/04 08:08	If you're looking in here, you've already got the idea that you can't just quit anytime, which I'll bet you've told yourself before. You just "didn't want to," or "weren't ready." That is nothing but pure lies that YOU have made up so that you didn't have to go through the withdrawals. Why? Maybe another lie you've told yourself is that quitting is too hard, that you just couldn't bear those "horrible withdrawals." Here is your glimmer of hope...withdrawals don't last forever, and yes, even YOU can withstand them. Start telling yourself the truth, okay? You're addicted to nicotine, and you can't just cut down, and you can't just smoke one every once in a while. However, *you can* quit. Yes, YOU. So what are you waiting for? There are thousands of us here on this site who have successfully quit cold turkey and we all want let you in on a little secret... pssssst...come closer...IT'S SIMPLE! All you have to do is STOP. Stay here with us and we'll help you through the worst of it. Get through it, and never take another puff. It really is that simple. Not always easy, but stop thinking of it as the hardest thing in the world and you may just be surprised that it's easier than you imagined. You can do this!! You really, really can. How do I know this? Because I was you once! MareBear formerly a slave to my addiction, now happily free for over 2 1/2 years!

12/23/04 08:24	You are reading here because you either just quit smoking or are thinking about it. You are me 3 months ago. I was scared, angry, weepy, all those things.....but reading all the information about nictotine addiction is what got me quit and has kept me quit. It isn't a matter of willpower....it's a matter of brainpower......educate yourself and you will be able to quit....Take control of your life and your body. I can't describe adequately how wonderful it is not to be a slave to a drug that does nothing, absolutely nothing positve for you. Face it......you will quit one day....the choice of when is up to you........now .......or in death later.

Nicotine is a serious addiction, not just a nasty little habit. Smoking kills, cripples and shatters dreams.

12/23/04 10:10	News years resolutions? I made one a long time ago and have never broke it. That resolution was "Never make another News Years Resolution." If a decision in life is important enough to make on the first day of the year, then it is important enough to make now, and there is no better decision that so greatly increases our quality of life than to quit using tobacco. Commitment is the key regardless of when the decision is made. Go into a quit half hearted and one is almost certain to fail. Stay committed for the moment and success is inevitable. Minute by minute, victory built on victory is the venue for ex-tobacco users. It is as easy as staying committed to no nicotine today and Never Take Another Puff!! Kevin, NicFree & Luv'n It for 6 month plus, I quit chewing tobacco on 6/17/04, have not spent $945.61 on copenhagen.

12/23/04 10:31	Welcome to those considering giving up nicotine! Tell me, where you fall in this list: It is impossible for me to quit smoking. It is improbable that I can quit smoking. It is possible that I can quit smoking. It is probable that I can quit smoking. It is doable. If you are near the top of the list, you are likely thinking "forever" and that is scary. It sure scared me for 25 years of smoking. How do we turn improbable into possible... possible into probable... probable into doable? How do we move down the list? Let's go to the opposite of "forever". I guess that would be very small chunks of time. Well every smoker knows that they can go without nicotine for an hour. An hour is doable. How about a day? Too much to ask? Let's string together some hours. At the end of the first hour, try it again. This hour is doable. Look at the clock. Just this hour. You know you can do it. Now do it again. Just this hour. Repeat. Well wait a minute. These hours are not pleasant. No, not the first 72 hours (usually, not always by the way). And some more after that even. But the more hours you rack up, the more comfortable you become. How do you know that? Talk to anyone who has quit. Anyone. They are not aching for a smoke. After a while they don't even think about it. It is true that everything you do with nicotine, you can do without nicotine. That includes coping with life. How do we do that? Get nicotine out of your system and keep living. One hour at a time turns into one day at a time. One day at a time turns into Never Take Another Puff. And then this is living without slavery to a drug. You deserve it. Move down the list, one hour at a time. ~ Kay (Gold) ~ Celebrating 1 Year, 7 Hours and 56 Minutes of Freedom.

12/23/04 11:32	You have seen the commercials on TV that tell you "You can't do it alone!" I am here to tell you that those commercials are true AND false at the same time. False because they want you to believe that the ONLY way to quit smoking is with the "help" of Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) Products, which simply is NOT TRUE. All that NRT products do is to prolong the withdrawal because you are taking in nicotine at lower levels than when you smoked. True because quitting without a "support group" is difficult. Having a "cheerleader" to remind you of where you have been and where you are headed and/or a shoulder to lean on when things get tough and you just need someone to talk to can truly make all the difference in a succesful quit and a relapse. Whyquit.com has given me the education I needed to understand exactly WHY I smoked and WHY I should quit and the group Freedom From Tobacco has given me the support and confidence to maintain my quit for over 1 year (which is the longest I have ever gone "Cold Turkey" in over 20 years of smoking and "trying to quit"). Attitude is important. Are you ready to take back control of your life from nicotine? Are you ready to stop burning your money up and your life with it? Are you ready to start REALLY tasting your food and regain your sense of smell? If you are, then don't light up that next cigarette/cigar/pipe/take that next chew or dip! Keep on doing that, one craving at a time. Don't smoke, don't chew, don't use. In just 72 hours the nicotine will be gone from your system and you will never have a physical "need" for nicotine again. During that time drink fruit juices (Cranberry is excellent) to help your body flush the nicotine out faster and read all you can at whyquit.com and Freedom From Tobacco. Quitting is doable! I did it and so have MILLIONS of others. Staying quit is also doable. The journey of 1000 miles begins with the first step is what they say. The journey continues one step at a time and so does my quit. When I first quit I took it one minute at a time and eventually hours passed, which became a full day, then a week, then a month, and so on. Now I take my quit one day at a time and often go several days without even THINKING of smoking. I work in a stressful job and have a very stressful family life so I know this can be done. One day at a time, never take another puff! David, One year, one month, two weeks, two days, 5 hours, 25 minutes and 4 seconds. 7420 cigarettes not smoked, saving $556.50.

12/23/04 11:41	I hope that there are dozens of new members that quit for new years! I would have never believed, just shy of six months ago when I quit, that: 1. I could have coffee in the morning without cigarettes, or drinks in the evening. 2. That I could live without them at the ritualized times of the day that I had established. 3. That I could get through emotional trips, physical trips, activities, etc. etc. - you name it - without taking breaks to have them. 4. That I would go for hours upon hours at end without even thinking about them. You have to get on the other side of the fence, where we are here at Freedom, to feel the difference. It is hard in the beginning, but do-able. Best wishes and good luck to all who quit, now and in the new year!

12/24/04 01:24	The cigarette, when smoked, is a very effective killing device! (I didn't say efficient, I said effective). When used as intended, half of those who smoke cigarettes will die from it. Some slowly, from diseases like lung cancer or emphysema. Some more quickly from heart attacks and such. The substance in cigarettes that makes it all possible, and that causes people to want to keep smoking more and more, is nicotine -reputedly the most highly addictive substance on earth-- a drug so captivating that most of those who use it cannot free themselves from its enslavement. You are here at this website because you have been looking for information on a way to end your enslavement to smoking (nicotine). Let me suggest: you need look no further. Everything you need to know about nicotine and addiction, smoking, how to stop and what to expect, and how to reach freedom can be found here at www.whyquit.com . Quitting will take a little effort on your part and a commitment to yourself to not take that puff when the urges and craves are at there most demanding. As each day of not smoking continues to build on top of the one before it, more and more of the freedom from the shackles of nicotine will find its way to you. You can do this!! Millions of comfortable ex-smokers already have! Of the hundreds of thousands of poisonous puffs of cigarette smoke that you've ingested into your lungs over the years, are you willing to gamble that the very next puff won't be the one that plants the seed of lung cancer in you? …Or be the one that overloads your circulatory system and causes your heart to stop? Everything in life worth having takes a little effort (your health, your very life itself?). Aren't you worth the effort? Richard (after 33+ years of smoking, free for 10 months and 3 weeks)

Did I ever think it could happen to us? Never in a million years did I think it could happen to us. There was no cancer in my husbands family and no emphysema in mine.

12/24/04 06:19	What words could I write in this thread that could possibly serve as the one that finally strikes a chord within someone's heart and opens their sensors to the realization of what smoking really is? What pictures or visualizations could be posted for all to see that finally imprint in ones mind the true reality of the most common form of addcition in our society today, as well as the destructive characteristics associated with it? Prior to writing this, I tossed it around in my mind occasionally for most of today. I reflected on my own 35 + years of active addiction to nicotine at 2-3 packs per day. I remembered how over the last 10 years, give or take, how disgusted I was with myself. I remembered how each time withdrawal signaled my need to again replenish my drug of choice, the agonizing thoughts that raced through my mind knowing how much I desired to quit but never knew how. I solemnly remembered my immediate family members who died at early ages most likely hastened by years of substance abuse. My thoughts turned to my own quit date just under 3 years ago. My hopes and dreams of finally taking control of my addcition shattered within hours as they were for so many years as I felt I could handle just one puff to relieve the stress experiencing from withdrawal. I thought of that promise I made to myself after yet another failure, to go just 24 hours for the first time in over 35 years without nicotine. I thought of the feeling of accomplishment and pride I was feeling when I looked at the clock to see the final seconds tick off after succeeding for 24 hours. This brings me to my final statement regarding anyones desire to quit. I believed in myself for just 24 hours. That success opened my eyes to the possibility I could finally do this & become the x-smoker I longed to be. Is it easy? No, you will have challenges. Is it worth it? Beyond belief. Do I believe you can do it? You bet your life I do. Now you ask, How do I do it? My answer is one minute, one hour or on day at a time. Believe in yourself just a little.

12/24/04 08:08	Every ex-smoker, whether they've been quit three months or thirty years, was once where you are now - sick of smoking and discouraged about ever quitting. I smoked at least a pack a day for 32 years. Until I took the advice offered at this site I'd never quit for longer than three days. Since coming here I haven't had any nicotine since November 18, 2004. On that date I could not imagine going the rest of my life without cigarettes. Today I know it's not only possible, but likely. Whatever I liked about smoking is gone with the wind. So is everytthing I hated about it; the stench, the bad breath, the mad rushes to the store, the standing outside in the rain or cold, the wrinkled nose from my wife, the sudden absences from meetings and events, the excuses. Everything bad about smoking, everything that embarassed me about it, everything I feared about it is gone. At the end of all my earlier quit attempts there was that one cigarette that brought me back. The difference is that I stopped thinking about never smoking again and instead focused on not having the next cigarette. Just that one. I worried about the next one when the urge came. One and a half months later and I still haven't had that one cigarette. I don't even want it anymore. Some other things that helped: 1. Do not carry cigarettes with you. It's just playing Russian Roulette. 2. Don't change your routine. If you change anything, go to bed earlier. 3. Download Joel's Library and read it. 4. Stay busy. 5. Read Joel's Library again. 6. Take deep breaths or a seres of short, quick breaths during craves. 7. Read Joel's Library again. 8. One day, one hour, one minute at a time. Terry Quit smoking on November 18, 2004 after 32 years.

12/24/04 10:46	By reading here, you're displaying the interest in smoking cessation that we've all experienced, sometimes more than once. I did it too, and bookmarked this site to come back to, reading and indulging in self-flagellation over my own smoking relapse after a TWELVE year quit lost to faulty thinking that I could "have just one." When I finally came to realize and ACCEPT that I was an addict, the "never take another puff" concept of cold turkey became crystal clear. If I could do this, you can too. Do yourself the favor of your life (literally) and read everything you can here.

After this you will still have CRAVINGS - but these will be like a snake with no venom.

12/24/04 08:44	HEY YOU! Come here! I'd like to ask you a question. How many years have you put off quitting until tomorrow, until New Year's, until after the big presentation at work......I could go on. Funny how the right moment never seemed to happen, isn't it? Well I'm going to tell you a truth here...the right moment isn't going to come. C'mon..Do you really believe that IF you run across a peaceful, stess free week in your life, you'd actually voluntarily forsake the peace and quit smoking? Or would you savour the peaceful moment by having a cigarette? The best moment is now. Yes--Now! You might say "What's the urgency?" The urgency is this...Every day you put it off you're taking the chance that your first sign something is wrong, it'll be too late. What if the cigarette that you smoke in the next 10 minutes is the one that finally blocks the artery to your heart? What if the cigarette you smoke in the next 10 minutes is the one that causes a pre-cancerous cell to turn cancerous? Look at it when you're smoking it and consider "What if"? For thousands of people worldwide EVERY DAY this is the reality and it could be YOU! What could be more urgent than that??? Oh, you're too young for that you say? Drop by here and meet Noni, Brian, Kim and Sean. Not a one of them over 50. Look, none of us here are saying that it will be easy to do. It is however, extraordinarily simple. We can give you the education and support to make it happen. You have supply the commitment. Angie - 11 Months 1 Week 3 Days 17 Hours 38 Minutes 17 Seconds. Cigarettes not smoked: 2765.
