not.even.a.little.
PEOPLE DONT SUCK.. PEOPLE CAN BE VERY HELPFUL….
HERE ARE SOME OF THE SUGGSTIONS
Q-MUNNITY MEMBERS SAID to me today:
(I am keeping names PRIVATE / ANONYMOUS)
Hi there, I just read your post and your blog (some of it) and thought I would drop you a quick note. You’re funny by the way. 🙂
I just wanted to comment on something you say in your blog about wanting to WANT the quit more. I used to say that too, I wanted to want it more so that I could be successful. Then I had this very smart quitster tell me that you do NOT have to want to quit to quit. If someone is sick and going to die if they smoke, they may quit but not want to. Trust me, if you quit for awhile, you will soon be so glad you did and you will find that you ARE wanting it. (the quit that is) I didn’t want to quit but I did and now I have 792 days!!! And I don’t miss smoking at ALL.
Good luck and drop me a line if you want!!
Meleah,
You Rock. I am like you also! Although I cannot say I am loud! My daughter Sam is Loud in everything she does!
I am on Day 4 and your blog is great!
I am a single mom of Twin Girls. They will be 11 in March.
I went thru a whole greiving process during the Holidays. The Horror finally struck me upside the head. How terrible it will be for my girls to grow up or live without their mom, because I was too Selfish to quit! How pissed my family was going to be next Xmas when I was not there! I thought quitnet would not help! It is my lifeline!
Write me back
Howdy! Just wanted to welcome you to the Qmunity and say congrats on your decision to quit! I know it is hard, VERY hard, but you can do it if you really want to.
Feel free to check out my profile and journal and add me to bussies if you want. Anytime you need help, just holler, we will all come running!!!!
Take care!

Ohmigod, I am reading the rest of your blog (bored at work) and you are hilaraious!!
I too have been to rehab and can really relate. I’m an alky. I think that it’s hard to give up ciggies when your so used to having a “vice” all the time. I found that I felt like I wasn’t doing anything “bad” anymore and it was no fun. How dumb is that????? but that’s how I felt!!
OMG! when you said…
“I think that it’s hard to give up ciggies when your so used to having a “vice” all the time. I found that I felt like I wasn’t doing anything “bad” anymore and it was no fun.”

FROM Quit Net
I know nothing about patches but if they are on you and you are not smoking don’t take them off. I am using the committ lozenges and they have helped get me through the urges to smoke. One urge at a time, one day at a time! Proud of us!
QNET
I enjoyed your blog too. That was all Rock N’ Roll. Your’re tough you’ll be fine. NOT ONE PUFF 😉
QNET memeber
Welcome, and great job on 4 days!!!
Read. Read posts, read the bios (click on members’ names), read everything you can. And go to http://www.whyquit.com and read Bryan Lee Curtis’ story, if anything will motivate you that will. Especially if you’re a parent.
Best wishes to you
QNET MEMBER
Well, your girlfriend directed you to the right place! There are a lot of people here that can help.
I used the patch during my practice quit. I used to put in on in the morning and wear it for 24 hrs. That way I wasn’t up too much at night or having nasty dreams. I ended up breaking out from it though.
With any type of NRT, you will still get cravings. In my opinion, the mental side of quitting smoking is actually harder to deal with than the physical withdrawl symptoms. Stick around and read and post any questions.
QNET MEMBER
the patch calms you a bit because you’re still getting your drug. it’s not an instant cure type of a thing. you still have to really want to quit.
QNET MEMBER
Welcome! Wow, I like your beautiful, unusual name, but perhaps that’s because my daughter’s named Maleah.
Hang out here at the Q. Read a lot, post when you need to, and soak up the support of fellow quitters!
QNET MEMBER
Welcome welcome welcome….I’m on day 4 too….cold turkey…..we can do this, we can do this, ….hell, we’ve already done 4 days…and probably the four hardest days….
so hang tough girl, we’re all in this together…(can you tell I have tweeners?)
QNET MEMBER
If you aren’t smoking, then the patch is working. Just give yourself a little time, and think about that little one at home hoping you’ll quit this time.
QNET MEMBER
Loved your blog page!!
Ok listen to me. The physical craving is nothing compared to the emotional hold cigarettes have on us.
Do yourself a favor go to http://www.quitsmokingonline.com to help you with the psychological part of your quit. It will give you another perspective.
It is an abbreviated version of Allen Carr’s Easy Way to Quit Smoking book. Which I also highly recommend. I’ll glady send you an E-copy of the book if you Q mail me an email address you would like me to send it to.
QNET MEMBER
Hi, Checked out your profile and all can say is Wow! Your blogging is very intense. Yeah, I’m going through what you are too. But I say NOPE. I’m using Chantix. Feel free to q-mail me for more info.
QNET MEMBER
Yes always come here before giving in to the urge to smoke! You Rock and can do this!
Looking forward to getting to know you
QNET MEMBER
Love your authenticity.
Hang with us, girl.
QNET MEMBER
Oh yes I am too “authentic” at times!

Wow.
I just checked out your blog and as a single father myself of a 5 1/2 yr old and a 2 1/2 yr old, I am very upset I do not live in Jersey right now because you are sexy, intellegent, creative, funny, etc etc.
I live in Chicago *sigh*
🙁
Just wanted to let you know.
Im Cathlic BTW and I would even overlook the Jewish thing.
LOL
If you would overlook the Catholic thing.
I did see you said Merry Christmas though.
I only read some of your blog – way too much for me to digest.
I would love to be the next guy you wore your T-shirt for. Then again I would love it if you never had to wear it again.
🙂
Harry

PS…..
I am not really either jewish or catholic,
MY FAMILY is SPLIT, so I celebrate both
but….don’t beleive in either
(if that makes any sence!)
