100 Days Since I Quit Smoking

Whatta long strange trip this has been!

I quit smoking in 2010, I was here as “exekex”. I had all the answers, confidence, and arrogance a reformed long term smoker could have. Then, just short of two years, I decided that just one would be ok. That did not work out. It took a few months, but I was soon a full blown smoker again.

I was ashamed, disappointed, and disgusted with myself. I decided that I probably could not quit and so I quit quitting.

It took 5 years to even try again. Things might have been different if I had fessed up,reset the clock, and asked for help. 

I started lurking a bit in August of 2015. On the 7th of May this year I got out of bed and just did not smoke. 

 

It may not have happened without a venue where I could see others honestly share their achievements as well as their failures.

 

Don't quit Quitting
