on friday 03/04/2009 through to monday 06/04/09 i was fiiting my bathroom and had a lot of stress then today at work even more problems but i smoked about 30 cigs over a few day period and got to 10am today and just stopped dead.
decided i dont want to smoke and the craving just went away.
what type of mind set is this?
how can i cave in one moment then a few days later become a non smoker again.
this happened the same a month ago for 1 day and i smoked about 9 but then the craving passed and i was ok for another month.
if i was still addicted then the ciggies i smoked should have sent me back to the beginning but it has not.
confused but glad to be a non smoker ...even if that does sound like its taking the pi********.

haven't gt anything constructive to say to that really, but 30 in a few days is alot!!!
and as you said you had some a month ago too-don't let your guard down-you sound as if you are confident in smoking then not smoking-it can creep up on you in the most unobvious ways-does this mean you will have 40 fags for a few days next month? be careful babes
I have to agree with Shabba - you have to be careful.
If you need to turn to ciggies when you get a stressful situation then you will start to make excuses for yourself more and more often until you are back on them every day. Well I know that's how I have failed in the past.
You have done so well to have got this far - don't go throwing it away.
You are a non-smoker now and non-smokers don't have the odd one (or 30!) when they feel the need.
I agree with Shabba & Jerry lee you need to be very careful with this at this rate next month oy'ull smoke a lot more than this if you think about it 9 last month 30 this logically the next time it will be 50
I think you probably need to do a lot more reading to get that mind set right
But having said all that you've managed to quit again but for how much longer can you do this
I agree. Be careful. On a previous quit I used to smoke 'just on holiday' and smoked using the other hand. No crave when I came back from hols. I convinced myself I could control the addiction and habit by using my left hand! (ridiculous), so then started only smoking when I went out on a big night out, which to be fair was once every couple of months. And so on, and so forth, and then within a year I was back full time olympic smoking.
