Don't give up, Super. What have been the triggers? Quit now, not later. Don't wait until you old, like me, or really old, like Phil. Seriously, though, you demonstrate that you want to quit. If you didn't you wouldn't be back here after two slips. You're nearly through a week on two occasions. Right at the end of that first week is about as bad as it gets in my estimation. If drinking is a trigger, avoid it for a month or so. Get past 3 weeks and you'll be a lot stronger. Also, each time you slip, you'll learn. Keep a positive attitude and don't forget that it does get better. You were not born with a nicoteine defficiency. When you were 10 years old, you were happy without cigarettes. You can be that way again but it takes time. So just accept that it is going to be hard for a while, you are going to be an angry bastard for a while, you're going to have cravings, etc. ACCEPT and let it go by you. Ride it out, keep putting one foot in front of the next. Keep moving along. Keep reaching out. There are sunny skies far down the road - but not so far that you can't reach them.

Super, It is not a waste of time! You can do this! Prepare yourself and keep away from situations that will tempt you for awhile. You have provided some great support now let us support you. Don't be to hard on yourself, just put you all into this. Keep Strong, Josie ______________________ The SSC Support Team.
