• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Good For you! People will push you, the devil does not give up without a fight, so don't you do it either, you have come this far. You are almost home. The older you get the harder it will be to quit (& the money money you will have wasted, the longer it will take your body to heal, etc).

You made it 90 days-you are a non-smoker. Say It everyday..Just for today..I am a non-smoker.. Isn't that nice?

Doesn't matter how many times you fall, only matters how many times you get back up, i started smoking when i was 13 and quit 23 years later. I tried to quit many times but one day it finally happened so don't give up.

I must say this is very important. God doesn't grade you on results of your performance but how hard you tried. Only you and God know how hard you tried. Foster the "trying spirit" rather than focusing on results, and eventually the "trying spirit" will be so strong the good results will always follow.
