So I am new as you can tell by my post title. But I just reached a whole day regardless if my status says i quit today. I had a beginning slip after work, but I made it through ALL of my ten hour work shift. I was even offered a cigarrettte and refused. I don't feel "special" but I feel determined.
Someone, anyone, do you have AIM? Because I have a MAC, I cannot download my meter or Messenger...please post if you wanna be my quit buddy.
