Why I use this group!
As someone who as recently returned to the group I would like to add to the discussion! When I first used this group I managed to stop smoking for 2.5 years, my method was Champix.
I used the group daily, sometimes quite a few times during the day,and the advice and encouragement I received and eventually was giving made it a very important part of my daily life.
Then I stupidly started smoking again I cant tell you the guilt I felt and the shame. I couldn’t come on the group because not only had I let myself down but the people I was trying to help to stop smoking down, and over the next year my head was in a cloud of smoke.
Once I decided to stop smoking I started a course of Champix and I headed home to this group and back to my cyber friends because I know and I knew there would be a welcome for me I felt like the prodigal son.
So here I am on day 3 of my quit and feeling great! My life as a non-smoker has began again, and this time there is no going back I WANT TO KEEP MY LEGS.
