Oh no

Well I did the garden and no excuse but uncovered my late husbands plants being strangled by weeds. Sent me down. The grief overwhelmed me. I begged a smoke off my mum. It didn't stop the tears. It did nothing but I felt soothed for the moment. I won't berate myself. I'll just start again. Confession is good for the soul. It's hard grieving and trying to move forward. Sorry guys. I'm so low. Haven't been to work today. I'm too sad. Thanks for listening

I am sorry to hear that you are feeling so very sad. This is hard for you so the last thing you need to do is to be too hard on yourself for having a cigarette. Just try again when you are ready. I hope you feel better soon. 🙂

Your support means a lot. It's weird. I feel I've found a network that is there for me. The heartfelt messages I've received have put me back together and I can feel the strength and motivation to quit. Thanks so much. It means a lot.

Hope your feeling a bit better. Like you said, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start again. We get down, that's life, but it's how we then carry on. Got all the faith in you 💪💪 p.s. work can sod off for one day put your feet up, relax and enjoy lol

I know how hard it must be for you when your mind is locked on to passed memories, feeling for you at this time , you can always give up a cigarette or two but you'll never give up a loved one in your mind heart and soul , when your feeling OK in your time carry on with your quit 👍
