Worst day ever

[nsd_user663_3802]

So my soon to be boss has made me nearly cry twice, and all I can think of is that Im going to buy a packet, get home have a stiff drink and smoke my cig.

Damn it.

So, how exactly is the smoke going to change the problem?

Sorry, I know that sounds harsh - but the answer is "it won't". It can't.

..and you wouldn't be the first to do such a thing Ms Mouse...

however, and far be it from me to fuel the flames...

IF you buy some fags and have one you'll maybe get a nanosecond of relief before you realise that not only has your boss got you in a mood but that you're once again a smoker in a mood. Your problem won't be negated by the fag, all you'll be doing is adding to the burden.

Have a stiff drink, kick the cat, ring up the cricket scores and argue but don't smoke....

Early in our quits we have a habit of exaggerating issues in order to justify reaching for the fags because instantaneously the failure isn’t ours, it’s someone else’s fault that we bought the fags.

What you will find is that as your quit lengthens you find less reasons to justify reaching for a calming smoke as you’re simply calmer than you used to be when you were a smoker…

It might sound cruel and heartless but once you've comitted to your quit and broken that small nicotine bond there is not one reason on earth to justify smoking again. Nothing can be improved by having a smoke....

Get past this smoke free and it's another box ticked.

Stay strong.

I Agree with the two boys also if you smoke YOU are allowing your boss to let you loss your quit. Stay strong just have the stiff drink. xxxxxxxxxx
