1 year quit anniversary

[Angel1964]

So today I celebrate my 1 year of smoke free. Over 9000 cigarettes not smoked. Well after almost 40 years of smoking this is a great accomplishment for me. Anyways, I posted on a smoke free app and mentioned my vaping and the comments were incredible. I was basically told that it wasn't really a 1 year anniversary because I still had nicotine in my system and that I traded one addiction for another. I tried to explain that nicotine was no worse than the caffeine in their coffee. One person even said that it was the same if she smoked light cigarettes rather than her regular cigarettes and claimed she was smoke free. I was so proud of myself and got shot down by a bunch of ignorant people. You'd think that the ones trying to quit would be less judgmental. Pffft. I was wrong.

congratulations on your one year smoke free.
my doc thinks otherwise and has me down as a non-smoker, so just ignore the judgemental ones, they don't know any better!

There's always someone trying to put you down and they are clueless when it comes to vaping - tell them I said that haha Congratulations on one year smoke free!

A 40 year smoker smoke free for 1 year. Now that's something right there. As one 40 year smoker to another, ignore those other folks. We both know how hard it is. Quitting isn't for sissys is it?

 

[VHRB2014]

Congratulations! That`s the big ONE. :?)

 

[HappyCamper]

@Angel1964 congratulations!!!

 

[FlamingoTutu]

Yeah, well, screw those that don't think you've quit.

First year is the best and a huge accomplishment, congratulations! Now follow the time-honored ECF tradition and buy yourself something extra shinny to celebrate, you deserve it.

Congratulations!!!

Ignore those buttholes, you have done something extraordinary! It is a huge accomplishment. If you get anymore flak from them, ask if they cut out caffeine completely. Nicotine is just a stimulant like caffeine is. People are always associating nicotine with cancer but that is actually all those other 4000 chemicals in ciggy's.

Keep calm and Vape on
