Hi Jean, We are all so different but I don't believe we all need to keep our guards up... Smoking really is a choice. It really is all about commitment, isn't it...? Each of us was a newbie when we began this journey, and we must find our way. I know for a fact that this place has most, at least, of what we need, IF we bring our own grounded commitment to this journey. This is a tough journey, it really, really is, and it is doable, one step at a time. It helps IMHO to remember how deep and challenging this journey is and can be for some... emotions come to the surface which we have never really learned to deal with as our smokescreen was also our buffer, so learning to take care of ourselves, on a more intimate level, is a big part of this Awakening. Those struggling, be kind and gentle w/yourselves. Take it easy and give yourself time to heal physically, spiritually and emotionally. Blessings and Light- Healer [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/5/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 447 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 15,645 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $2,078.55 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 59 [B]Hrs:[/B] 3 [B]Mins:[/B] 33 [B]Seconds:[/B] 53

Hi Laughing. You need to understand that offering help to someone who comes to this site, is theraputic in itself. Many people come by, and not all of them have the best intentions. Just in the past month or so there has been two individuals that came on early morning, posing as newbies trying to sell their own websites etc. Unhooked, yourself, myself, have the freedom to pick and choose those we feel we should help, and we have the choice to 'take what you need and leave the rest". That also applies to helping someone. Some folks find it really difficult when people post that they are back smoking, or post an opinion that you don't agree with, it is your choice then to not answer them and move on to help someone else. No one is trying to be God, no one is trying to be superior, we are all just here to quit smoking. End of story! :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/5/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 82 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,050 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $865.10 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 10 [B]Hrs:[/B] 0 [B]Mins:[/B] 13 [B]Seconds:[/B] 25

Historically I've avoided discussions like this one but one sentiment struck me and I'd like to respectfully disagree. [quote] I will never offer support or encouragement to anyone who is not trying their best or is only looking for affirmation that there was nothing wrong with what they did. [/quote] I guess if this means not responding to a post I can understand that. Telling someone they are not trying their best or that they did something wrong is another matter. Quitting can be a tough row to hoe. One big downfall to communicating in type is that it can be really difficult to gauge tone or emotion and things can get muddled easily. I don't expect every response to every post to be sugary and fake just not accusatory. Support is just that - supportive. Everyone's 'best' looks different, just as our lives do. The number of lurkers (those who read and don't post) on this site is astounding. If they decide to reach out for help, I hope that they would not be afraid to do so for any reason.

Laughing, you are a far more generous and patient person than I and I applaud you. Trying does not have to mean only succeeding and I don't feel "on top" of anything at all. I have failed more times than I can count, including once since I've been coming here. The not trying, to me, is in the making excuses and defending an indefensible position. I have not turned my back on anyone and perhaps saying that I would not offer help or support...etc.was a bad choice of words. It seems to me that there's a difference between losing a quit and giving one away & if you can respond the same way in either case & think you should, good for you. I don't. Maybe after I've been quit longer & have more perspective on the whole thing, I'll feel differently. I certainly will not jump into a situation like that one again & should have trusted my first instict to leave it alone for a longtimer to come along.
