hey guys,
I reached the two year smoke free mark on NYE... however, for some weeks I was having HUGE cravings... I think it was because I have had a bit of stress. Recently my (much loved) Ex contacted me after three years, but told me he has a child and has moved 100 miles away. I have found the whole thing very stressful because I still have very strong feelings for him.
anyway, I have tried to resist, but for the past 5 days I have been smoking. I have only had a total about 10, but its enough to have triggered the withdrawals in a BIG way because I have now stopped again. I have an inhalator which is stopping me from going to the shops and buying more, but I am very uncomfortable.
I was so proud of being two years smoke free... I can't believe I was so stupid, but I refuse to let it get out of hand.
HELP.
Dont beat yourself up about it, you were off guard but now back on the quiting road again.
2 yrs! it seems a life time away for me, only on day 6
but i try to stay positive & finding lots to do instead of nipping out to have a fag.
Never quit quiting is what they say, so lots of luck this time, get through it any way you can & remember what ever life throws at us, lighting up a fag really doesn't change a thing (thats what i keep telling myself & i've resisted 6 days
Be proud of those 2yrs & just get back on the horse
you done it once, you can do it again.
Lots of luck
Take care
Trudy
