I smoked yesterday

Hi Everyone,
I feel so bad and ashamed of myself, after 4 months of no smoking I had 4 cigarettes yesterday while at the races.
What do I do now start again or continue with 4 months with a hiccup.

Hi RMJ, you had 1 bad day, keep going it will only make you stronger. I did the same and beat myself up about it.
I wrote it down on my calendar and kept going, the thought of starting again would have bought me undone.
You have been around 120 days smoke free -1 day. Everyone has a bad day, pick yourself up and keep going. You got this...ππππ

Keep going RMJ no restart, I did the exact same thing a couple of weeks in and a wise person on here told me that no one ever died from feeling stupid. This is so true so square your shoulders and soldier on you have 4 months behind you so don't you dare throw that towel in. Eyes on the prize, turning back is not an option!!

Thankyou for the nice comments,
Suzy I have been definitely beating myself up about it but feel better after reading your comments.
Robyn that sounds like a good strategy of remembering how it made me feel because it made me feel like crap and donβt want to feel like that again.
And Leanne I will not ever go back because it was so hard to get to this stage.
Thankyou all for support and kind words itβs made me feel better and nice to have people that understand where I am .
