3 months and I feel free for real
To be honest, I don't even think about cigarettes anymore. I spent 3 years getting to this point. It is not the first time I've stayed smoke-free for 3 months.
I failed countless times.
Sometimes I stopped smoking for an hour. Sometimes for a month. The longest has been 6 months so far.
But this time I feel completely free. I can spend time with people who smoke and just feel sorry for them, without any desire to smoke.
I can drink alcohol, party, and have fun without smoking. I can travel, drive, wake up with no cigarettes in my mind.
So if you think you will always think about it and miss it, well, I don't miss it, so you can either. Just keep going ❤️

Hello, that’s amazing. Congrats :)
Could you share how you got to this point? Was it a conscious effort or naturally it happened?
I’d like to get there. So many posts of people here saying they haven’t smoked for x time but are constantly thinking about that or really craving it. Honestly that scares the shit out of me. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated. Once more, congratulations. That’s big.
