Set back

[Prettypurple39]

Im so dissipointed in myself went a week smoke free then I fell out wiv my bf and had a roll up....anyone else had set backs?

I think we all have had set backs during a quit. You just ha e to learn from it and try again. Figure out what triggered you to smoke and what you can do differently next time to not smoke. Like leave the house and go get a coffee or chew a straw or something

Good to read you are back on track Prettypurple39 - how is day 3 going for you?

[Blistersnbliss]

Yes I think everyone whoever has tried giving up any habit has had set backs. That's normal. I gave up last June and was doing so well until went on holidays and bought ciggies as "one off" and befor I knew I was back on them again but now again smoke free for the last few months. It's a constant struggle but I think we should not give up the desire to give up.

Good luck..
