Had to bump this because that is what I have just gone through, HELL. Yes, some of you know I did buy a pack of smokes once my husband got home. NO i can honestly say I did NOT smoke. I was talked through the process to dump them in the toilet. That is the hell I went through. I was way beyond thinking that a smoke would not solve my problems. Thanks for the few who had to hold my hand over the past week. I wont mention them but they should know they saved my quit because now I finally understand how someone could easily start back up. Once you hit the point of no return, there is no return unless you reach out and have someone hold your hand through it. I learned a valuable lesson and know I will struggle for the next few weeks until I can stand on my own once again. Heck I looked at my meter and cried knowing I came way too close to loosing those days that I am so proud of. THANK YOU all of you here on SSC.

Part of a Rodney Atkins song that really sums up an early quit: [i][b] Well I been deep down in that darkness I been down to my last match Felt a hundered different demons Breathing fire down my back And I knew that if I stumbled I'd fall right into the trap that they were laying, Yeah But the good news Is there's angels everywhere out on the street Holding out a hand to pull you back upon your feet The one's that you been dragging for so long You're on your knees You might as well be praying Guess what I'm saying If you're going through hell Keep on going, Don't slow down If you're scared, don't show it You might get out Before the devil even knows you're there Yeah, If you're going through hell Keep on moving, Face that fire Walk right through it You might get out Before the devil even knows you're there [/i][/b] Happy New Year, everyone.
