How QuitWithUs users are breaking free from addiction with community support
From 30 cigarettes a day to complete freedom
Arjun had quit smoking 5 times before. Each attempt followed the same pattern: 2 weeks of motivation, then rationalization, then back to a pack a day.
"Every time I quit, I'd disappear. Nobody was watching. Nobody cared when I slipped. With QuitWithUs, I had three people checking on me daily. I couldn't lie about it. When I almost smoked on day 14, I texted my cohort. They talked me through it."
Today, Arjun is 127 days smoke-free. The cravings have faded. His breathing has improved. But what really changed was knowing he had people in his corner.
Key metrics:
- 127 days smoke-free
- Previous attempts: 5 (all failed)
- Cohort size: 4 people

8 hours a day to a life back
Priya was addicted to Instagram and TikTok. She'd wake up scrolling and end her day scrolling. It was stealing her time, her focus, and her joy.
"I tried many apps that blocked these sites, but I'd find workarounds. QuitWithUs was different because my cohort wasn't forcing me to quit — they were quitting too. We supported each other through the withdrawal."
Today, at 89 days, Priya has read two books, started journaling, and reconnected with friends she'd lost touch with. The accountability from real people made the difference.
Key metrics:
- 89 days social media-free
- Screen time reduced from 8 hours to 1 hour
- Cohort size: 5 people
Breaking free from the shame cycle
Rohit was trapped in a relapse cycle. Quit for a week, watch, feel shame, watch more. The shame fueled the behavior. Repeat.
"QuitWithUs changed everything. My cohort was other men quitting the same habit. There was no judgment, just understanding. We talked about why we watched, not just how to stop."
Today, at 156 days, Rohit is not just quit — he's genuinely free. His relationships have improved, his confidence is back, and he has a group of men he can be real with.
Key metrics:
- 156 days porn-free
- Previous attempts: 8+ (all failed)
- Cohort size: 4 people (all male)
