So i'm 123 days quit today and i'm feeling down and upset over family stuff and there's that f*****g nicodemon sat on my shoulder telling me its ok to just have one. I wanted to share this with everyone here so I don't give in to temptation. I know having a smoke won't make me feel any better or less upset, in fact i'll be more upset after the amount of time thats passed as a non smoker. Onwards and upwards

better out than in I recon, stuff hold in builds up and so you did the right thing and shared and I think we can all understand just how you feel.

best thing is you didn't have a smoke and just got a bit better at being a non smoker :)

I'm feeling your pain, some days I am so over this, that it would be easier to give in, but like you I know there is no such thing as one and it wouldn't change anything so onward we go. Well done on your 123 days

Thanks everyone, its been a funny old day!! I almost didn't go to the shops at lunch time just in case I felt tempted to buy ciggies. Feeling more positive again now. Yes, IC I got a bit better at being a non smoker

Congratulation on your 123 days of non-smoking free you must be feeling much better and more healthier but also don't let things get to you just be strong and you will get there.

Hello, Gina, I saw your post today and thought you might need some cheering up. Don't be so hard on yourself, the number of times I have so badly wanted a smoke and found myself looking in the kitchen drawers. It makes you a little crazy. I have so much respect for you admitting that you'd started again. The last time I started again I was smoking for 3 years again without telling my mum who thought I had quit all that time before. You know what! Don't tell them you started again, quit now and they will never know. The guilt can be so bad that you feel you can't stop but then you feel bad lying to them. I know, I know, I've been there and done that one. Stop today. We are here for you. If you need me, message me on one of my old posts. You've not failed, flower, it's just a blip. Stand tall and stop again. Hugs.
