Hey Red,

Didn't know you were on the side lines watching the game. Thanks for coming back I almost messed up and went for it. I know stress is a factor for me that makes me want to fall off the wagon but I didn't thanks to 2 women at farm fresh. Anyhow I'm OK now thanks for checking in.

Hey my quit buddy!!!

No, you're NOT going to go back. We're on this ride together. I know your doctor had you on a patch and you managed to kick that to the curb. Have you given some thought to maybe put a low dose one on for when times get stressful. In not sure about any interaction with the medication you are on but maybe check to see if you can cut them in quarters even to help ease things for when you're stressed?

Please keep riding this with me. I'm really sorry I haven't been around as much but I was taken by ambulance to hospital last night with the same thing happening to my eye. I'm still in hospital but I'm doing okay.

Don't give up on me buddy, please???

Sorry I meant maybe a lozenge and cut it into

quarters. Johnnie helped me heaps with that and it's really worked.

I actually saw someone the other day use an ecig, they aren't approved here but that's not my point.

This is purely my opinion and again purely based on myself but to me they mimic smoking so much.

I don't think I'd try one myself for that very reason.

But hey, if you go down that path, that's your choice and I'm still your QB, good and bad times.

Qb Kim,

Please stay focused on getting well. I tried to get my email address to you but this site doesn't allow it. I wanted you to have it in case of an emergency like this one. I fine now so no worries.

I'm so relieved you're okay and that you

stayed strong. I am like looking after myself but it still worried me about you. Stress is a trigger for me also and it's far from easy but we have to learn new ways to cope. Let me try mine but it's all together kim is me 26 @ gmail com

Hi Mike,

First congratulations on your 2month mark.

If you can stay quit for 2 months you can stay quit for good.

Every time an urge to smoke comes in my head i say this to myself:

Yes, i wanna smoke a cigarette right now but do i wanna be a FULL TIME SMOKER AGAIN, do i wanna play russian roulette with my life.

The answer is obviously no.

Keep up the good work,

Yes thanks everyone for posting, It got a little rough over the weekend. I need find a way to deal with life stresses that works for me. Maybe slap myself in the face and say stop it. Thanks Kim, Ivan, Johnnie, & Red.............. everyone I'm still in the game. :)

And one more... Such kind, positive, encouraging sentiments extended to you, Mike 1972. Take advantage of this opportunity to go the distance with such a powerful support system. People on this site not only care but truly understand. At 700 and something days, I know it works.
