messed up

I have been a total idiot today. Was on day 20. Smoked 4 puffs at midday but I didn't act on a crave but on a opportunity which makes it that much worse :mad::mad:

Anyway have to start all over again I have learned a lesson and I haven't had any more fags since that stupid one. There is positives I can come away from that quit with :

1) The fag didn't taste nice. ( missed the taste ALOT )

2) The fag didn't give me that all important high which I was my reason for missing it.

3) Reinforced my thoughts on disliking smoking.

Anyone know if I have to go through all the withdrawals again (haven't had no craves since smoking it)

Other than the guilty bad thoughts feeling great physically considering.

I'm sorry to hear that! Don't beat yourself up - we've all been there!!! Hopefully you should just be able to pick up where you left off, but you will have awoken the nicotine monster again who may or may not come calling!

Good luck!!

Oh bless,

that is a real sickener for you i bet but don't get too down about it, 20 days is 20 days, that sure is a big achievement, you fessed up to a few puffs and your back to it.

I understand that little opporunity and it catches you off guard, i've messed up before like that! don't worry were get there in the end.

Don't beat yourself up about it!!

You had 4 puffs so you won't get withdrawals from that, nothing like enough nicotine to do it :)

And don't look at it as a failure, learn from it :D

Your 4 puffs of what you thought was going to be fab, were minging and made you hate smoking even more :D Proves you don't need it, don't like it and won't do it again!! Make it into a poisitive!!

MNSNM, please do not beat yourself up about this. It's just a poxy liitle stumble on the journey. No harm done. You've picked yourself up and dusted yourself off and are continuing with your journey. That's all!

Thinking of you.

Thank You everyone so very much!. Even though I haven't got the confidence to reply to the lovely support you are giving me I do always read it and it is such great support that I am able to easily turn it into the motivation I need.

I really wish I could give people as much support as they give me :( but sadly I suffer badly from anxiety atm and I struggle to communicate very well in person and on a computer. That's why I take so long to respond.

You guys were right no withdrawals yet and it's like I never smoked but have definitely learned. The way I see it is I am slowly beating my depression and anxiety (not smoking related) so there is no reason why I can't do this :D

You are supporting other people, MNSNM; by being a member of the Forum! You increase the membership by 1, so that makes one more person to support everyone else, whether you post much or not!

I hope that makes sense! :confused::D
