Today is a very hard day. Everything going wrong, broken Car with a £150 repair bill :( having to deal with an incident at work with someone on drugs attacking people, police and ambulance called I had to restrain the lad. Iv just got home and all I can think about is having a smoke :(

Of course that's what you think about, it's been your support for many years.

What a difficult day , stay strong not all days are like that, and you can do this.

Just hang in there, early night, or a walk, any thing but smoke, it will pass, I promis.

Hoping tomorrow is better for you:)

Sounds like a hellish day glam, but in all honesty if you had a cig would it make you feel better? No not really, it might do for a few minutes but then you would feel disappointed and angry that you did it you really would, I can tell you now from recent experience it's no fun going back to the early days when u have have done well on a quit, so my advice is have a nice bath a couple of beers bit of grub and put this down to a rubbish day, at least it's Friday tomorrow ;) xx

My husband is fantastic, he said there was nothing to stop me having one but asked how I would feel if I did. He too told me to have a beer instead and is cooking tea :) I just can't believe how much I would love one right now, I have a massive feeling of something missing in my life. :( oh well I have a glass of something special & hope the feeling goes soon.

Your husband sounds lovely and he is right! You'd make your day so much worse by smoking because of the guilt you'd feel afterwards. I hope that tomorrow is better for you x

You did exactly the right thing, Glam, in pouring yourself a nice glass of something and posting on here. Well done you!! :D

Your OH sounds lovely. With his support and ours you'll never walk alone. :)

I hope today proves to be somwhat less traumatic...

Things have improved :) less stressful & a lovely long weekend. Unfortunately can't afford to get away due to repair bill but we are child free & may have a romantic meal in ;)

I will be at 4week tomorrow, I really did not imagine I'd get this far. If I can do this then anyone can! I'm the woman who smoked 3 within 30 mins of waking up!

I thank you all for the support I have received :D

You're most welcome Glamgoth :)

Glad to hear you're feeling less stressed. May your weekend be a blinder and many, many congratulations on very nearly getting your first month under your belt. :D

Crappy days like that one are sent to test us! Rise above it - you are doing great. And as already said, you only think you wanted to smoke because that was what would get you through things in the past. Most of us have been smoking for years - we more or less grew up with them; so now we're suddenly finding ourselves having to try cope with life and what it throws at us in a whole new way.

Keep it going. Sounds like your husband is very supportive and you have the right attitude. Instead of reaching for the smokes, come on here and type it all out. By the time u finish, the craving will have passed. Distractions are the key
