Well not been on the forum for a good few days and I am afraid to say that I nearly bought some cigs last Friday. I lost my aunt last Friday and even though she was elderly it still came as a great shock as unexpected.
My first thought was ok this gives me reason now to break my quit as I was so upset and devestated and I can justify smoking again. I walked into the local shop in the village on Friday evening and decided that I didn't want to smoke even though my brain was saying "well it's ok after the shock and loss".....I didn't and walked out of the shop with 2 bottles of Vino!!!!!!!
I am so so glad that I resisted temptation to the nicodemon as I realised that it wouldn't have taken away the upset and just got me back into that victious circle.
I'm now on week 4 and 1 day and feel that I am really committed and focused and WILL be a non smoker forever.
Hope everyone else is doing well.
Shazie.x

I am so glad you didnt give in to those little demons I would have had to come round and give you a good slapping but you didnt so thats good I will pat you on the back instead and you get a gold star and a lollipop.
Its not easy but after 4 weeks it would be a crime to start again and have to fight them awfull withdrawal symptoms again not sure I could do it again.
You keep it up and heres a little poem I wrote as a mantra
Hi Shaz, sorry to hear about your Aunt, great job in not breaking your quit though. After coming such a long way you certainly would have regretted it.
Last year, a couple of months into my second quit I had a similar situation, I however wasn't so strong and thought just one or two would be OK under the circumstances, well the rest speaks for itself, here I am on quit 3.
Well done again, smoking never makes anything any better.
