Jeez I soo could smoke

[nsd_user663_59644]

What a idiot spent so many months quitting the fags, but I could easily smoke !!!

Not good

Under the circs, Tracey, I'm not surprised and that small puff you had will have awakened a few sleeping demons I expect.

I think the advice you would give to an early days quitter probably applies- distractions, plenty of 'me' time and a good cooking session would be on top of my list. May I suggest making some marmalade? The Seville oranges are in now and I spent a very happy weekend making a couple of batches. All that 'pith taking' may well get out of your system things that you need to release...

Hold on tight and keep posting because there's always someone here.

Tracey you are a lovely strong woman. I hope things get better really quickly for you. Can't blame you for feeling like that xx

[nsd_user663_63090]

I get that Tracey. I've read your posts and know it's not easy for you right now. However, with so many months under your belt, how will you feel if you smoke again? Stay strong.

Yes am trying,I could pop to shop, as I feel worthless at the mo, but if won't I need the cash, back at work tom, only 8 days till I leave, that's good

Tracey, it did make me sad to read your post yesterday, you have had more to deal with than is fair and my heart went out to you. But Tracey, don't turn to the fags, they won't help you, they won't change a thing - you don't want to smoke, you have done so well AND this is in your control, say no to smoking, take a victory for you today - say NO Tracey, for you, for your sake - say NO,

Big hugs to you

You are all so true, I wish I had not posted my personal situation, I,m not smoking, I don't have any, I if indeed light up took two puffs then put it out the window. What a idiot.

Back to square one I've let my self down,

Although yesterday was probably the most unfortunate post I've read in a while and I understand, it's also a prime example of where the saying NOPE-Not One Puff Ever comes from, although you only had half a fag it still would have been enough to kick all your nicotine receptors off which Is why you are wanting one today more than you would have if you hadn't of smoked yesterday. It's a twisted habit and you have to twisted back at it an refuse in order to deal with it on a quit.

You haven't let yourself down, you have in fact shown incredible strength Tracey. I feel every reply to you on this forum from other members is so sincere because you are a very valuable member yourself. I have only been here a short while but can see a mile off that you are a lovely kind lady, it kind of oooozees out of you. We are all sharing a demon of a journey my friend and with that journey we all experience emotional turbulence and you will get through this. I would like to say a heartfelt thank you for your post on trimming down the patches as its been such a good plan that I have built into my recovery and also for always trying to help others which you do. xxx

THANKYOU all, no I,m not smoking,I guess I was fortunate not least as I took a puff, made me soooooo very dizzy, looking back over the last couple of days,I think it was a knee jerk reaction, to being very up set, but smoke I will not,

Back at day one yesterday, it's reinforced my decision to stay quit, I now know I won't smoke,

This morning is a different day, off to work I go. I can't turn the clock back just so wished I d not done that,

So will Just keep going

[nsd_user663_60964]

You're one brave and very special person Tracey

I stand in awe of you and I really do mean that...

[nsd_user663_60964]

[nsd_user663_59644]

I,m not smoking even though I know my oh is out with his friend, and then coming home, but I refuse to smoke.
