Quit Blogs

Star in Quitline's new ads

Hi bloggers

We're looking for people who have quit smoking with the help of Quitline to take part in our new advertising campaign.

We're looking for all different kinds of people. Shooting will take place in early March in the Wellington region so it would be ideal (but not essential!) if you were living in the area.

To register your interest, please email Sarah Woods: sarahw@quit.org.nz
It would be very helpful if you could include some information about yourself and your quitting journey.

Many thanks!

just a little help and something to read

well my name is Jacqui,,, I am on a mission to giving up smoking for a better future... Well it's been a long few days i am a few hours off my FIRST week of quiting and ain't had to much trouble for the past week i've even challenged myself on my third day,, i decided that i was going to have a big bunch of drinks with a group of friends and not smoke!!!!! YAY YAY i succeeded i finally woke up the next day not trying to catch a breath it was EXCELLENT to feel free from coughing and choking the next day after drinking.. How ever i do have a question for anyone that can help me as i feel like it has been to easy.....

Now because i have had such a good first week is the next week going to be hard for me??????????????????????

Hi and welcome.
As pukeko has said, everyone's journey is different. What one person is experiencing may or may not affect you.
The journey is full of peaks and troughs and as many of the family have said in the past, the journey is a roller coaster ride.
Read other family members' blogs they will help. But most of all the journey is well worth it no matter how we complete it.
ODAAT!!!

Hi, I found the first few days quite easy and then out of nowhere it hit me!! But everyone is different and you might be one of the lucky ones where you get no symptoms, lucky you!!! Good luck and well done!!!
