Hi guys, i had a relapse. i gave in... went to a girls night out. turned out horrible. i had a big argument with a friend. of i went to buy a packet of ciggies. and smoked probably half a packet. sunday woke up hating myself so much about the time i wasted staying smoke free, ended up finishing the rest of the packet. before i slept last night i reset my app, and chose quit day is that very moment. So now i'm about 13hrs smoke free. if it means i must avoid going out, then i will do that. because now im back to square 1. the headaches, the sick feeling when taking champix, the moodiness.

Hi Roisin01, day 1 i did not even have cravings, day 2 is a bit difficult. the mints are just not helping today. the water as well.but i'm determined. i've actually been so unproductive today. i leave thing half way done coz i'm not feeling nice. i just want to cover myself in bed. and wake up when its day 3.

Hello Neli . Sorry to hear about the relapse. I have had more than a few myself so I know how it feels. I think the fact that you got straight back into a new quit is great (I didn't and one cigarette turned into at least 3 months of solid smoking).

Hope today went well. ☺

Stay strong Neli - you can do this - it is perfectly normal not to be focused as your brain is re-wiring, keep with the water and maybe a walk to clear the head :)
