Show HN: I made a gamified quit nicotine app that got me to 12 months smoke-free

1 week ago 1

I stumbled across the idea of Weanie on another site, and I figured I’d give it a try. After smoking for 20+ years and trying to quit probably 50+ times, I had little faith in successfully quitting. I tried cold turkey, I read quit books, I used the patch, e-cigs, vapes, meds, and whatever else you could think of, and after every attempt, I continued to smoke. I tried Weanie. I set an aggressive quit plan of two weeks. And I quit on day 13. I don’t know how or why it worked, but something about sticking to an exact schedule and cutting one out every day really helped me tackle my addiction. I haven’t had a cigarette in 2.5 months and I’m thrilled to say it’s because of Weanie. Thanks for the great app, and for constantly working to make it better for your users, Weanie team! Well done!
