Hi all. I've stopped smoking completely since March 2023. Only yesterday at a leaving party did I take a couple of pulls from a colleague, mainly because I had a drink and felt like having a pull. It wasn't disgusting like it normally would be so I surprised myself. And I felt bad that I worked soo hard to give up and I was taking in these toxins. I felt soo guilty afterwards and totally regret having it.It scared me to be honest. I feel like now I've broken the "no smoking" rule with myself that I can potentially fall back into it easily. I have to be strong. Feel so vulnerable to it now arrrgh! I want to scream at myself!

I hear you, I've only been off cigs for 4 days and already caved and had 2, I also feel sick and if I'm honest the cig even made me feel sick, start again as you've been free of them all that time so if you can manage that I'm sure you can manage to start again....Good luck
