Don't quit quitting...you can do it. It may take quite a few tries until you get it right, but it can be done. Keep the attitude that you want/need to quit.

I do know that the sooner you go back to NOPE the easier it will be. You don't want to be a smoker. That is evident in your post.

Barbara, No banging head on desk, it just makes you an angry smoker.... [IMG]http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p300/DeeKaySss/signforstress.gif[/IMG] And we'd rather you were a quitter instead. Just know that it's your choice and you can choose to start again if you wish. The sooner you choose to start again very much the better, don't you think? the freedom is right around the corner, you know you can do it and you know we are here to help! And thinking hard now could save you doing this again later. Knowledge really is power, and it won't hurt as much as banging your head on the desk...

Brabara, it's okay. Just a small set back. Regroup, regain your strength and resolution, and continue the journey toward total freedom from smoking! :) Cheers, nmc (a fifth time quitter) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 8/25/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 83 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 837 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $415 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 15 [B]Hrs:[/B] 13 [B]Mins:[/B] 22 [B]Seconds:[/B] 55

Hey Barbara, Don't get frustrated I am on my second try I gave it up at 99 days! But I just got right back on the horse and started again. I just told myself that first try was practice now I am ready for the real thing! Relasping made me realize that stress is a major factor for me. Now instead of dealing with a huge problem all at once, I take baby steps. Deal with a part at a time. And chew gum, drink water, go for a walk whatever you need to do, And don't forget to REWARD yourself for every little thing! You can do it, you are so worth it! Get back up and DO IT again! ~Valic [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 11/1/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 15 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 78 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $79.5 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 2 [B]Mins:[/B] 1 [B]Seconds:[/B] 56

Barbara, You've experienced a slip, now is the time to learn from it and keep going. If your quit plan isn't always effective in helping you fight cravings, it's time to review your plan, identify problem areas and modify what isn't working. Are you rewarding yourself frequently? If you have nothing to look forward to, nothing worth more than smoking than what do you have to work towards? What motivates you through those cravings? What have you replaced smoking with? Ex: You use to smoke with your cup of coffee, now you read the paper instead. What other coping mechanisms are you using to help you fight cravings? Gum, walking, posting, mints, deep breathing, water? Keep strong! You can do this! Danielle _________________________ The SSC Support Team
