We Quit Cigarettes

[webbysmeme]

Say it young sista say it.
Let them have it.



I tried to avoid all talking for my first week.

Once I get through the demons I'm fighting now, I think I will join you. Can't handle it now . I wish I could! This thread will probly be long gone by the time I'm ready. I hope not. It would be nice to have a support group like this.

You earn points for doing stuff.
I earned all of these 8500 lines when I got blood work done last month. It's silly but I'll have the last 50 earned by the end of this month.

You can only buy fitness related stuff from their store with the points/money.View attachment 2041970View attachment 2041971View attachment 2041972

Oh boy.
I did not get all of those items with 8500 next to them.
They cheated me on two. Guess who is sending an email tonight.

This thread isn't going anywhere.
Don't you worry...I'll be here forever.

Today isn't a good day to open my mouth, but I can't help it.

My alternate point of view is, while You're fighting the demons why not go for a whole new you? I had to stop drinking beers, too. Not that huge of a drinker but sometimes I like one or two. Can't do it now, because it makes me REEEEEALLLLYYYYY want to smoke. So I inadvertently quit both at about the same time.....

And it's midterms right now. And, babies! What I'm trying to say is that my plate is full right now.... but it is manageable. Hopefully. I might fall off the wagon again but I'm trying hard!

Hang in there, ShannonR! Good luck with midterms and with managing everything -- again, hang in there!
And great job on making it through five days! Keep it up!

Everyday counts.
Everyday makes a difference.

If I screw up and let myself get into a bad habit of snacking then I'll be screwed.



@webbysmeme woman you are nuts! I see you reading from the beginning.

I so admire your courage and honesty. I just can't stop reading. You are one amazing lady! I hope to be there with you some day. It'll be a while though, I'm going through my own hell at the moment. Don't have any idea how long it will last. Thanks for starting this thread. I need it right now. It's helping me cope a little better.

Can we help with your hell?
Sometimes venting really does help
Ask me how I know this.

We have a duck that we thought was a drake. 'His' name is Raleigh. We still refer to her as a he. Same with our 1st accidental rooster Bianca 'she' was such a pretty 'girl'.

I had a beautiful drake named Bianca. I was sooo sure he was a girl. Bianca got changed to Bonkers.

You had me concerned for a second - Princess has one.

I’m in good company with Princess.

You better answer my texts. Tell me not to do it!!!

Y'all are amazing with the support and encouragement. Keep it up and glad to see new people joining every day (@Ursuline Chick & @WVduckchick - do it!)

We are proud of you!

Thank you! Support is a huge key. Knowing I will disappoint a few people will be good motivation. I know we all understand back-sliding and having weak moments, but the lift from everyone is hugely appreciated.

Thank you for the encouragement, you are a sweet lady. But my demons are way bigger than my smoking one, sweet girl. I'm addicted to opioids and Adderall. All prescribed by my doctor. I'm also an alcoholic. I have manic depressive bipolar and the drugs that go with that. THERE, I'VE SAID IT ALL
I'M ASHAMED OF IT. BUT IT WAS NOT INTENTIONAL AT ALL.
I have been in some major pain for the last ten years. I was diagnosed with bipolar 20 years ago. I take full responsibility for the drinking. So, you see, I'm kind of a mess right now. I have no drugs now. Nothing to drink. I live out in the country and I don't drive. This is what I want. Quit it all cold turkey. That's the only way I can do it. I told my husband to leave. He did. So, that's what's going on with me!
