Just wanted to take a minute to thank anyone that's been on this site for more than 3 weeks. I've seen people on here for months and even years!

You guys are the rock on which kicking the habit is built. No, scratch that, you're the earth that supports the rock. I've seen people on this site much older than myself and also ex site members for much longer. I bet for a lot of you, the internet was not even around when you picked up the habit of smoking.

I consider myself lucky to be young enough to have a tool like this site before I had reached decades of smoking. I know a lot of us cannot turn to family or friends for the quiting process, and doing it completely alone seems daunting. But social media quitting is a pleasant middle ground for us all to enable ourselves with personal strength, which magnifies with the strength of all our internet social community.

So, to all of you that have already found the greenest grass in a smoke-free life, the rest of us are coming. At first we thought the distance looked too far, but we just had to adjust our glasses to see it was actually just within reach.
