Two years and counting!

[telsie]

I'm a bit late in posting this, but two days ago was my two-year anniversary of quitting smoking

Although I quit smoking all at once by using an ecig, it wasn't an easy process for me. I'd documented some of what I went through on my blog and I was just rereading it... I'm so glad that's all behind me now! If anyone's interested in reading through some of my experiences of quitting smoking (warning: lots of mental anguish and bad language), here's the link to those posts on my blog:

lost in the inner circle of thought

^ To read those in the proper order, just scroll down and start from the bottom.

Maybe some of that will help any newbies who are having a rough time with quitting smoking.

Echo the pervious post DOUBLE - way to go. Gives me hope I can stick with vaping.

Awesome blog! Reminds me of some of the turmoil I went through when I wanted to quit so bad but always gave in to that inner voice telling me to ease the pain. It's ironic how much more pain you end up being in while smoking.

Congratulations on 2 years!

Congratulations! Thanks for sharing the blog. At least I'm not the only person who got these side affects. I've been so off balance since quitting and it's been 47 days - thought I would be all better by now.

Hoping in 2 years I'll be posting here.

Thanks for the congratulations everyone. It was definitely a rough road for me for the first few months, but I'm so glad I'm writing this two years later as a contented non-smoker. If it wasn't for the ecig and this awesome forum, I don't think I could've done it, I really don't.

Huffelpuff - Some people have a much easier time of it than others and I think it just comes down to our individual brains — how we're wired and how smoking (and then quitting) affects our chemistry. So even if it takes a while to feel good, I can tell you from the other side of the hump that it absolutely does get better. And in hindsight, it's totally worth it. I hope you feel better soon.
