    Today is day 6 and it's been a little rougher than the previous days. Having a headache is a trigger for me and I've had one all day. I'm feeling a little crappy - think it's the detox process. Yuck, but it will pass. No one really needs to read this post. I heard that posting helps so I...

    I'm sick being a Christian

    Stop "trying to be a Christian". The character of a Christian naturally manifests itself as your relationship with Jesus matures. Seek to be a friend of Jesus'. Talk to him as if he were standing right in front of you. Tell him you don't trust him....that you think he's not for real...etc., but...

    Where is my faith?

    Just because you haven't had a successful quit does NOT mean that you lack faith. God's timing is normally not the same as ours. I've spent years praying for recovery in my addictions and when His time was right, his power carried me through...and still does and always will until the day I'm...

    Looking for support.

    Wow! Thanks for sharing these experiences! Very helpful. Thanks for the prayers, too. I'm over 48 hrs. smoke free now and am using 4 mg. lozenges. I find that a complete lozenge is too much, takes too long, so I got some 2 mg. gum. I'm using 6 or 7 a day. I messed with my triggers and smoked by...

    Alcoholics and Addicts Discussion/Support Thread

    Have you ever read the Beatitudes and the 12 steps side-by-side? I think they same the same thing. I think God gave us AA and that's why it works. There is a lot of the Bible in the Big Book of AA and I'm sad to hear a few people at meetings denying that fact. But I guess it's to be expected...

    What is your story?

    :groupray: Before I embark on this journey of not smoking I'd like to read what some others have done and experienced. Would you be willing to tell me your story? How long did you smoke before quitting? How many times did you try to quit before this time? Did you have a plan? Did you have a...

    Looking for support.

    I just found this place from a search. I've been smoking a long time and know I need to quit. It's been on my heart for a long time. I feel that my witness and gifts are powerless as long as I smoke. It grieves me. I quit drinking many years ago and know that the most important thing to do to...
