Had Relapse

Disappointed in myself that I have picked up a cigarette last week. Didn't feel great physically or emotionally. Back at abstinence. Keeping very busy with activities that don't lend to any behaviour temptations. I quit on March 01 so I definitely have no nicotine in my system. Must stay strong willpower wise. An old friend is in end stage lung cancer - this must keep me from returning to the habit.

Sorry to see that you have had a relapse, but we are all subject to err somewhere in our lives, so it shows that

you are human, but get on the Quit bandwagon again and continue,

Red-67; you hit the nail on the head there - I am just starting the quit journey, and I think like a smoker who can't have one. It gets in my head and does my head in! I just want that cigarette . . .

I need to learn (as you say), to be and think like a non-smoker. Just not sure how to do that :-(
