Words cannot express how gutted I am.......I had one last night......too much booze let my guard down......woke up with bad taste in mouth......I am devestated......1 month in and I do that........I have come to terms that I am not free from the stuff and I should re focus my mind.....sorry to all and especially myself.......

Put it behind you Ram and as Max says get back on the horse and try again! You dont have to keep smoking just because you did last night!

Don't let that 'one' grab you back into addiction......as others have said, get back on your horse! Don't beat yourself up, we've all been there. Its more about how you move on now. xxxxx

Hi Ram!!

Don't feel to badly my friend, I am starting over from scratch today!!! I began to smoke again a week ago and it has taken me until today to start over again at square 1. This time around I am trying the patch and hopefully I have learned something from the weeks I had quit.

Well... it does feel good to be back! Just don't keep smoking like I did, you can pick back up and keep going!!!

Please don't be so hard on yourself, you've only done what the majority of us have done. As you say you've learnt from this wee blip and are moving on positively. You'll do fine:)

All that matters is you are quit. I would have had one and then followed it up with hundreds more. What you did took strength :)

Well said Karri :)

Think thats really true Steve.;)

I actually think that for myself,with my posts every 5 minutes lol,if I went off and smoked I would be so ashamed :o and that keeps me firmly both eyes dead ahead.So this forum and its lovely people work as a very strong tool personally to aid my quit.

It did for me; I ended up going cold turkey but only through illness at the start, not through any clever master plan. If it hadn't been for this forum letting me rant, and the great support I got, I would not have got past the first two weeks, simple as that....

Me too!!

Am sure I'd have caved when I was going through the sad and teary stage I was on about earlier in my quit if it wasn't for this place - and having to admit I'd smoked (which I haven't!!) to everyone here as well as my friends and family would be too much!!

Don't worry ramasus, you slipped but who hasn't? The important thing is you fessed up;) and you want to quit!

Don't let all your hard work be wasted with one blip!

Saddle up that horse and get back on!you can do it!.

Wishing you the best of luck.xxx
