i really dont know where i stand with this now , i can happily say though i am done with traditional cigarettes! although because i knew i still had an ecig in the cupoard that brought on some temptation to use it and the temptation was soooooo strong! honestly guys i still dont want to smoke a cigarette i just wanted a wee puff of my e cig hope use are all ok and can understand, i appreciate the alcohol has affected my judgement and i made a mistake tonight.!

Don't worry about that Nohassel The main thing is you didn't go back on the real things even though you were obviously having a stressful time last night.

If you have relapsed by doing this then I have too, many times, during the year since I stopped smoking. You're still at a fairly early stage so it will get easier and the longer you can stay off the ecig the less you will need it....until you don't need it anymore.

Hope you're feeling better this morning. Have a couple of paracetamol, a sausage sandwich (with brown sauce) and a can of your favourite cola brand...works wonders for me!

Well done Nohassel on not smoking a cigarette BUT (sorry, there is one) the e-cig had nicotine in it and all the hard work after 2 months (today) cold turkey has been undone and you have gone backwards so you will start to get nicotine withdrawal again....

I would rephrase your title to maybe 'gone backwards' - I really appreciate your honesty and bravery sharing as you didn't have to an dd could have just carried on, it shows you really want to be free from Mr Nico - my advice would be to get rid of the ecig because if you are stressed out you will reach for it and continue to torture yourself and your mind. Avoid alcohol and try to come up with resolving the issues you encounter, with your neighbors, what can you do to sort it out, talk to friends or family too and above all come on here, rant and rave, we don't mind, thats what we are here for.

Like Nozmo suggested nice bacon butty with brown sauce :D
