Let's talk a little about Non - Vs- Ex Smoker. Do you see a difference. I am not splitting hairs here. Just pointing out that one a smoker...always a potential smoker.
Now, to the issue at hand:
I am not going to feel sad for you as you feel sad enough about this slip for the both of us. I am going to tell you though that those above me here speak volumnes of that advice you sought. I think that after my marriage of 43 years, this stop smoking thing is my next proudest achievement. I rank it above being once a heavy drinking who quit. Thus, I am going to protect it. It is not a matter of time being quit. It is the fact that I was able to go say at least one 24 hour period without a smoke. Then, repeat that many-many times and we have my situation. Do not be impressed though. It really is still only one 24 hour period, if you get my drift.
OK. Are you going to feel the urge to socialize stronger than the urge to remain smoke-free? Is that the question? Only you can decide.
Congrats' on restarting.
