Well, the day has finally come! I'm ready to quit. So here I sit, almost two hours without a cigarette, wondering whether this is worth posting on the boards. Well, to tell you the truth, I'll be proud of myself if I can actually do this, and... I could use the accountability and the encouragement.  So wish me luck, guys, I'll need the support.  Sara

Well, done, Sara!  I'm sure you can find plenty to do here on the mbs to keep your mind - and hands - off those cigarettes! Good luck! LabRat

Great decision, Sara, and very courageous. We'll be here to support you and help you go through the first few difficult weeks. After that it should get easier (but we'll still be here). Kaethel

Good to stop now, Sara. I've been married to a smoker for 13 years and that means we've spent over $32,000 on his cigarettes. Nice down payment on a house that would be. Would also pay off our credit card debt. I don't even want to consider the interest that would earn if it was in a savings plan those 13 years.  GOOD to STOP NOW! TEEEEEEEJ

Good luck, Sara! You'll need lots of willpower, but just think of the benefits to your health, as well as the fact that your clothes and hair and all of you will smell much nicer. You'll never have Larry Hagman sit in front of you with a miniature fan telling you that kissing a smoker is like kissing a dirty ol' ashtray. (Yeah, yeah, I've just aged myself here  ) And, as TJ says, think of how much money you'll be saving! I don't know how many you smoked per day, but I'm sure you could work out how long it would take you to save enough for another air ticket to visit some FoLC friends, or the Lois and Clark DVDs coming out this year!

Just wanted to take quick second, before I have to rush off again, to thank *each* and *every* one of you for responding. I think I found an new Stop Smoking Program! Seriously, just knowing how much support I've gotten already just in my first day, is more than helpful. Kept thinking at work "Can't have a cigarette... can't go into irc later smelling like an ashtray. They'll know." So thanks, Lab, Kae, Pam, Liz, James, TEEEJ, Jenni, Wendy, Jen and Julie!!!! Sara  <--- Just about how I'm feeling right now. :p

Darn. I can't remember what comedian it was who talked about quitting smoking by taking deep breaths (thus getting a little nicotine taste in the mouth, courtesy of smoker's lungs ) and munching carrot sticks. And I can't give Google enough to find it -- if it's even online. Did find out that both of those things are really recommended, though. Good luck, and good for you! Look what a great thing you are doing for yourself! Go Sara!
Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.

Rough first day, but I didn't hurt anyone. I'm *really* bowled over by the amount of replies I've gotten and I really can't thank you all enough. I've read all the posts *several* times. Makes me want one just that much less. So thanks Yvonne, Molly, Emily, Rivka, Jen, and Ankit!!! As well as everyone else too!!  Sara

Yay, non-violence! Keep that up... Hang in there, Sara, I know you can do it. Y'know, in my experience, nothing will distract you better than a good flame war... want to argue politics with anyone? Whatever your views are, I guarantee you can find someone to disagree with them Just, um, do it in e-mail, k? Otherwise the other admins will kill me PJ

I think we need to do a count for you, Sara. So, assuming you still haven't had a cigarette, this is Day Three, right? Congratulations on making it this far!  And hang on in there - let us know when you need a little extra encouragement, all right? Any other smokers out there ready to stop along with Sara? Mutual encouragement and all that... Wendy

Mountain Standard Time... which makes it... SIX days as of right now. I'll be honset... I did have one or two. So I cheated. But I'm really encouraged by the fact that I didn't enjoy the experience, which is good. And, I'm telling myself that it's far better than having smoked two or three packs. I'm hanging in there. Finding it difficult at times to function without my stress reliever, but I'm dealing. Thanks again, everyone, for your support. I really wouldn't have made it even a day without your support! Sara

Six days is almost a week, yes? Awesome. And yeah, I'd definitely agree that one or two is far better than one or two packs.

I think most people fail at giving up an addiction, Sara, because they pay too much attention to the little steps backwards that are inevitable and let them overcome them. So, much waving of pompoms and hearty ra ras all round for your positive and sensible approach to those. They will happen - but turning them into positives and letting them help you move forward as you are doing is a huge help towards your goal! Well done, you! Keep it up! LabRat

Well... I haven't been avoiding this post, really, I've just not been sure what to say. I didn't make it. I may have picked a bad time to do it, set myself up for failure, with all the stress and problems I've been having this semester. Or maybe that's just an excuse. But, as with any addiction, it may be an excuse, but a vaild one. I think. I don't want to be a smoker for the rest of my life. Hopefully, not even the rest of this year. Unfortunately, now's just not the right time for me to do it.  I do want everyone to know that I really do appreciate every single response this thread has gotten. I'm very touched that so many of you care! You can't imagine how it helped me when I was going through the first few very tough weeks. I want to apologize, I'm not sure why... I guess I feel I let you guys down, though I really only let myself down. But I'm okay with that for now. I have other things I need to get back on track, so I'm concentrating on those. I do hope that when the time comes again, you'll all be here and willing to give me the same support. Sorry, and thanks again! Sara

I think you were very brave to set yourself up for a public challenge as difficult as this one, Sara, while knowing there was the possibility of failure. And even braver to admit it didn't work out this time. So well done! And don't beat yourself up too much. If this was easy, everyone would be doing it in a week. It's not easy and maybe you didn't succeed as much as you hoped this time, but you made a good start. Next time, you'll do better. My father tried several times to give up smoking over the years when we were kids and failed many times, but he got there eventually. You will too. LabRat

People who know me well have a hard time believing that I used to smoke, but I did - over 4 packs a day! (cough, cough) I tried innumerable times to quit, and finally, in a fit of desperation quit as a birthday gift for my non-smoking fiance. We've been married more than 20 years now, so that seemed to work for me. You'll find something that works for you, too. Keep trying in the future. Eventually, it will click for you. Irene

I may have picked a bad time to do it, set myself up for failure, with all the stress and problems I've been having this semester. Ugh, I totally understand. I smoke when I get stressed out, but I told myself this week I'd stop doing it because it's obviously not the healthiest thing in the world. Wouldn't you know all the drama and stress of this campus gathered and combusted this week. It's driving me crazy not being able to jump out on the balcony and light up. If everything doesn't quiet down soon, it's back to the balcony. JD

Sorry it didn't work out this time, Sara. Congrats for trying. You know, Mark Twain once (reportedly) said, "Quitting smoking is easy. I've done it hundreds of times!" No shame in not having it work out. Better luck next time, when you're ready. Paul
When in doubt, think about penguins. It probably won't help, but at least it'll be fun.

The average smoker quits many times -- because it is very very HARD to do! Don't worry, Sara, you'll get there. *hug* Meanwhile, don't apologize. Deal with what you need to first, so that next time can be more successful. Good luck!
Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.
