I just realized today is 4 years smoke free. I basically never think of cigarettes and just realized oh yeah that’s right i quit on St. Paddy’s Day, so there I found something to smile about today.

That’s amazing well done! 4 years is great. What method did you use?
I quit earlier this year. I quit before I had my daughter and didn’t smoke for 7 years. Picked it up again and it was really tricky to quit this time. I’m still romanticising it when I think of my holiday in south africa at the end of the year I’m picturing me (not drinking) but smoking. It’s like a deprivation mindset, you know where you say well, everyone’s going to be drinking, I’ll smoke so that I don’t feel so conspicuous and at least I’m doing ‘something’. It’s so silly but these thoughts keep popping up.

4 years is great, I bet you don’t miss the feeling of it. It’s been 16 years for me, I read the Alan Carr book and it just stuck. I’d never want to go back to the coughing, hacking, hungover zombie I was back then.

Congrats! That’s awesome. I have about two months. So it’s really helpful to hear about multiple years without it. I had to write my way through that first month. Was pretty rough. A bit better now.

It gets easier, hang in there. What kept me going is knowing there is no benefit to smoking and it became more of a pain than a pleasure.
