I quit smoking in Nov 2024 but I've just relapsed!

[gigooctet]

Hi,

It's been 3/4 months since I last posted on here. I was doing really well until recently, when I ran into some serious complications at work. I won't give you the whole story and just outline the gist of it: The agency I work through is about to be liquidated. They said that they can't afford to pay their associates, which means that as things stand I have lost 2 months wages, a considerable sum to me. My colleagues - a 100 or so - are also affected and we are currently working around the clock to rectify the situation and retrieve what we are rightly owed. It is, however, likely going to be a long process.

I currently have very little money and, as I own a property abroad, I can't even apply for Universal Credit. In fact, buying cigarettes is probably the last thing I should be doing!

My plan, though, is to smoke the rest of the packet I bought and then stop again. I think it's stronger if I put this in writing, and also I have found you helpful and encouraging in the past.

That's all for now. I welcome your responses.

I feel for you ! I relapsed last year due to a list of personal.issues ...again..the last thing I needed was tobacco ..but it happened ..felt so gutted and disappointed...BUT ...now back on track ..day 53 of no cigarettes..so it can be done! The important thing is to keep trying even if we fall off the wagon ..and try and try and try again ...wishing you all the best and success !
