Life happens. 14 years ago this site helped me  quit.  Retired now to the simple life. No waves in the pond and anything that happens now can't compare to the past. Today is day 3 but I've been here before and know what to expect
 Eagerly moving ahead.  This will be twice and for all!

Day 6 and feeling pretty good about myself.  Go to exercise class 3 mornings a week and on off days, get on the treadmill. Get active to help you quit.  I'm 73.  If I can do it so can you!

This comment was just left on the main site - any spouses out there who would be willing to offer some advice?

I read the Nicotine Widow post and sobbed because I’d never felt so seen on this issue. Together 30 years with two daughters – found out about a month after we got married when I found a stash in his car. Been a roller coaster ever since. No one knows. It’s so isolating. I’d love to talk with others who get it. I tried to join the linked Facebook group but it doesn’t appear to be active anymore. Any other spouse out there to chat with?
