I think I will need to change my name, soon. :D If I may... the circle is 'little' only because we need more people like yourself to join in and share your experiences.... (And because we lost Grumps ) Truly, it is through my making an effort to share as much as possible, even if it is just emoticons when it is really rough, that has made such a significant difference in my quitting. I look forward each day to reading others posts and how they are doing, it uplifts me greatly and inspires me. Thank you for sharing in the happy vibes - and the energy I can share! oneLOVE |

[link to health.howstuffworks.com] It seems that some med-types have seen group quitting as more effective than for those who go it alone! |
