Are you looking for support

Are you looking for help?

Are you looking for miracles?

If you are looking for support….you’ve come to the right place. This community is the best place for support in quitting smoking. People here will advise, push, cry with, celebrate with and bleed with you.  We will always be here with you and for you.

If you are looking for help-----we can provide that too. The EX site describes many types of quitting assistance that some have used and some have not. Check it out and see what will work best for you. We will also help with resources on readings and education on what quitting will feel like at various stages.

If you are looking for a miracle……as in…..let me just wake up a non smoker-----no withdrawals, no cravings, no need to re-learn my day-----well, sorry. No miracles here.

Quitting takes some hard work…..not going to sugar coat it. The hard work is not just riding out the craves and withdrawals. It is the re-learning of your life. Realizing….BELIEVING…. that smoking was NEVER a necessary part of your existence. THAT’S THE HARD PART!  You need to admit that----smoking did not calm, excite, amuse, fix, reward………… anything………… in any way.

It was ALL a lie.

That’s hard. But, once you really do that, you will have your forever quit.

And, guess what? You will also have your miracle.

Stay Strong.

I quit smoking in 2009 after years and years of addiction. I just became sick and tired of the whole smoking thing. This site was a lifesaver with the support I received...so as you can see, I hung around to help others. I became friends with many people....some are here now and some are gone. Welcome to anyone who is new....this is EX....we are all here for each other.
