Hi Rangi and welcome to the community. Like you my main motivation was to be here for my kids and to one day be a Grandma! For many years I thought I was never going to escape the nightmare that is nicotine addiction.

Now it just feels so normal for me not to smoke. The thought of putting a cancer stick to my mouth is quite foreign - much more so than during my previous failed quits (all involving NRT) My husband still smokes, there are always cigarettes here, and I can honestly say that because of this community I have never been tempted to smoke during this quit. I'm not saying it has been painless, just that the education and support here has made me realise that I actually did have power over this.

22 days is a milestone. There is something about that 3 week mark, perhaps its because the discomfort is all but gone, and we realise that we can have normal a life just like everyone else without needing to slowly kill ourselves. You have done the hard yards Banana, now it is simple - NTAP!
