wow what an amazing and wonderful web site I was lucky enough to stumble across. Well hello there all my fellow non smokers my name is Caron and I have been
smoke free for 5 days and 19hrs. I started smoking and the ripe old age of 13 and have been a nicotine addict for 21 years.
This is the second time I have quit cold turkey, the first time was about 3 1/2 years ago just before i fell pregnant with my first child. I managed to stay smoke free for just over a year and then took the fatal puff when she was only 6weeks old. At the time I used post natal depression as an excuse for my stupidity. when obviously it only made things worse. lucky for me I recovered from post natal depression relatively quickly but at the end on the tunnel I emerged a full blown smoker once again.
So here I am going through the quit process once again but this time I know that I will never ever take another puff.. So what makes it so different this time. Well the last time I quit I actually found it really easy. This time I have really struggled and I never want to go through what I have been through the past 3 days and I never want to put my family through it again. ( I was pretty nasty) and the last time I didn't have the advantage of being apart of a great support system like Freedom. so I look forward to the quitting process with you all and I know that it only gets better and better with every new day and I know that the day will come that not once will I think about or crave a cigarette. to all you first time quitters believe me that that day will come I have personally experienced it and boy will it put a smile on your face.
