Then we have Allheart oh my what a heart this lady has she has also quit smoking and is sticking to her guns and remains on the top branch of the quiting tree.
Then theres Synnen She has also quit smoking and proudly remains on that top branch too what a gal she is.
The last Lady but by no means least is Chippers now this lady has quit soda no more caffine filled bottles of pop for this lady and she is also doing wonderfully, if your nice enough she might even let you have a go on the wash basket ride ;)

Oh good for you moomin!!! It certainly does!!!

Moomin what was harder the drinking or smoking? My girlfriend just came from rehab for drinking. Boy I am sooooo proud of her. She looks divine now, so much healthier.

[moomin007]

I have to say drinking actually as well. I went cold turkey with both of them (not at the same time! ).
Haven't been tempted by ciggies for a looong time, just the smell of them now is awful!
The alcohol is different but I'm there (or there abouts anyhoo).

[Allheart]

Guess what Moom - I don't know you, but I am darn proud of you. You are doing a heck of a thing... and will keep at it. You are one strong Moom and nutin will stop you from being your very best!! I mean that!

I'm game for the quitters witter corner. I'm very nice and Of course anyone can ride the basket. But I did promise allheart she could be the first. And everyone knows a goddess keeps her promises.

[moomin007]

I'm curious.
'ride the basket'... is there a meaning to this I don't know?

;)
Moomin

[Allheart]

LOL - Well, I will provide the picture and our Chippers can explain the ride of privilege LOL

This is the basket...

[moomin007]

Well... my minds gone into overdrive now!

:)

[chippers]

My youngest son started it all. While I was doing laundry, he decided it would be fun to ride the clothes basket down a flight of stairs. I heard the WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THEN THUMP THUMP THUMP as he went down the stairs. My heart was in my throat when I heard that. It was almost as bad as hearing your little cherub saying uh oh.
From there the ride became the goddess ride. I forget where wewere in this thread when we talked about it.
It just took off fromthere. It became our incentive to stay on the top branch. And for the new people joining us to climb to the top branch.I hope that explains it for you. After a while it takes on a meaning all it's own.

[curlybenswife]

Giggle trust us Moomin you will just love the ride giggle

[moomin007]

If its anything like the basket ride in Madeira, I shall LOVE it!

Well i havent had a cigi since 8am this morning it was the last one now ive tried on numerous occasions to quit smoking and im just not flipping strong enough to do it i always cave in.
Now i know theres no easy way to do this and i have to admit boy am i feeling dizzy and funny but i can't give in i need to do this for millie not just for myself.

So is there anyone out there with any words of wisdom and dont what ever you do lecture me on whats in a cigi it wont do a thing the women at the clinic tried that and i just laughed and said look i already have arsonic in me so thats really not gonna scare me into stopping. I want support not a telling off after all im an adult not a pubescent teen.

Thank in advance hugs

Laura

I wish you the best... I am also in the process of quitting... but, I would not beable to even attempt it without the patch and gum... it does help a lot if you have been a long time smoker... also my Dr gave a new prescription of a medication that has been very helpful for quitting smoking it called "CHANTIX"... hope this helps.

Hugs for every minute not smoking!!

[moomin007]

Bravo You Scatcynthia!

Keep it up. You CAN do it.

As I am only three days old I think simplicity for someone searching the site would be best. The support tree seems to suggest an area where people can get some kind of sympathy back to them for their plight, whatever that may be and the tree suggests something sturdy and strong and growing. I am definitely rooting for that one (pardon the pun) - MARIA

[joeysgirl]

Stop smoking cigs and start smoking pot at least you won't have cravings for cigs just food +you feel hiiii

[joeysgirl]

Smoke pot

[Synnen]

Yeah... because THAT will work for people with kids and careers.

I'm a proud member of NORML, but suggesting another form of smoking to people trying to cut it completely out of their lives isn't a very good suggestion, Joey.
