Well I am back to day one!

[nsd_user663_17807]

in Oct 2010 I quit cold turkey, I did every thing right until the 28/12/11. When at the new sports and fitness club I had joined Christmas party, I thought it would be safe to have just one crafty one! as a bit of an ironic joke really, well the joke is on me it is now the 19th of March and I am smoking daily.

Thank you for your post as it is a warning to us all - have you quit again or are you planning too?

You must feel annoyed with yourself as you were doing so well - it is such a slippery slope.

Sorry to hear that Lemsip. When do you plan to get back on the wagon?

Very ironic that you smoked at a party for 'Sport and Fitness' too!!

You know you have done it in the past, and now you know that you cant just have one. So think of this s a learning curve and you will be better prepared for next time.

Good luck for whenever you choose to quit again.

Cheers

Don't beat yourself up ....

Hey Lemsip

Don't beat yourself up about it. We're human - all of us - and there ain't a person out there who hasn't weakened over something at some point. I'm one. I quit for 9 years. Then started again. Then quit for 6 yrs and started again so I know exactly where you're coming from.

Put it behind you. Just a slip. Decide when you're going to have another go and climb right back on the band wagon with us (I'm only on Day 6 but I ain't going back.

We're only ever one cigarette from being a smoker again. When you're time is right you will come back!

Lots and lots of help on this forum - fab people all trying to support each other in spite of whatever situation they are in - come back when you're ready and we will be here to help!!!

Good luck !

Hi,

Just wanted to say good luck for when you quit. And dont blame yourself for your blip, everybody has one. We.ve all been there.

Not much else to say (just yet!,) only a newbie, so will leave it there.

Anyway good luck in the future.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO:mad::mad:

I am so gutted for you Lem, oh mate, you know you can't have just one, there is no such thing as just one. I hope you are back on it, we have come so far together. You did it before and you can do it now. Get back on this wagon with me, we'll stay on the straight and narrow together my friend.

There is friend to say, the man smoked cigarette, isn't a man of integrity.Attractive blond is smoking, three men fall over themselves to light her cigarette. The third man's lighter has no flame, just a cross.

I recognized in the society with 555 cigarette and marlboro cigarette.

Oh please :rolleyes::eek::mad:

Sorry to hear about your lapse Lemsip. I did exactly the same thing over christmas, breaking a six month quit. How stupid was that. :mad:

But I'm back now, and I have to say it hasn't been that difficult to get back to feeling in control again.

Good luck to you mate.

[nsd_user663_45922]

Feel for you. Think it's quite a common thing, we get to a point and think we're in control. Same thing happened to me in the past, I quit for about a year, then had one cigarette on a night out, next day bought a packet and started smoking again. Although it would have been great if that never happened, since I quit again (7 years ago now), I'm adamant I'd never even take on drag on a cigarette as I know how easy it is to fall in the trap again, so in some ways I needed the slip to prepare me for never smoking again.

I really hope you pack it in again and this time you'll know the risks and be stronger for it.

Best wishes.
