Hello friends,

This week’s article may challenge some of you. If you’ve experienced the spiritual realm, I hope you’ll read with compassion. If you believe evil is just human brokenness, you may struggle to accept what happened to me.

But I’m not writing to convince anyone. I’m writing for those who feel trapped in addiction and long for freedom. For those who’ve tried everything and still feel pulled under. For those who need to know: Jesus breaks chains. God bless and protect you and yours.

🕊️ Confessions of a Ni****ne Addict is live now on Substack. 📖 Read it here → https://open.substack.com/pub/quitcoachsue/p/confessions-of-a-ni****ne-addict?r=2viois&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

Why Smoking Accelerates Aging — and How to Reverse It

07/09/2025

Hello friends, 🧠💬 Why do people keep smoking or va**ng—even when they want to stop? It’s survival.

Most long-term smokers and va**rs aren’t chasing a buzz. They’re calming fear. Silencing pain. Coping with trauma that never got seen or healed.

Ni****ne feels like comfort because it once was. But today, it’s an outdated survival tool—and your body is ready for something better.

At QuitStrong, we don’t shame the habit. We honor the story behind it. We help you heal the fear beneath the puff—and reclaim your freedom with compassion, clarity, and courage.

🚭 Ready to quit without guilt? ✨ Ready to upgrade your coping tools?

Let’s walk this together, God bless

Hi friends, I used to believe smoking was my lifeline—helping me cope, calm down, and get through the hard stuff. I couldn't have been more wrong. In reality, ni****ne was quietly rewiring my brain, making me more anxious, not less. The "calm" I felt was just relief from withdrawal—the storm it had created in the first place.

In this week's post (see link below), I expose this myth and give some tips for getting through withdrawal when you feel the changes ni****ne made to your brain and body. God bless you and yours

Hey guys, I smoked on autopilot for 17 years—until my little girl turned her head away from my goodnight kiss and said, 'Yukky Mummy, you stink!' 💔

That memory sticks with me far more than any so-called ‘enjoyable times’ I spent smoking—burning up our small income and my health.

It wasn't the end of my smoking but it was the end of being on autopilot.

That was the moment I began to look at smoking differently. In 2000, I developed Focused Smoking, a technique I’ve since used with my clients to help them break free from ni****ne.

Hello friends, if you've quit ni****ne (or are trying) and find yourself suddenly pulled toward sugar, you're not weak — you're in recovery. Your brain's dopamine system is rebooting, and your body is chasing comfort in any way it can. It's a trap! If you switch from a ni****ne 'hit' to a sugar 'hit', your addictions will double!

A nurse’s journey through relapse, recovery, and revolutionizing the way we quit.

30/06/2025

As someone with asthma, I thought quitting smoking would be easy once I decided I was ready. I was wrong. It wasn’t until my umpteenth quit attempt—desperate, exhausted—that I finally saw how deep ni****ne’s grip really was. Addiction isn’t just a habit. It’s a trap, and I know what it feels like to want out.

Since the early 2000s, I’ve been helping others quit and stay free. I never want anyone else to feel as stuck as I once did.

If you’re ready to learn, heal, and break free, enjoy the article on the link here. God bless you on your journey.

This is for anyone who’s tried and tried again… and is ready to finally win. ✝️💪🏽✨ 📖Note this article is as promised in my last one, 'Why Some Quits Don't Stick.'
Blessings,
Sue
