Kayla,
Your posts have really tugged at me. I so feel your pain! If you won't make that promise, then I'd like you to do something else. Answer this question "Do you really want to stay smoke free?" Take some time and think about that. Think about what the consequences are if you DO stay smoke free and also what the consequences are if you DON'T. And then answer that for yourself.
If the answer is yes, then making a promise to post first shouldn't be an issue. But if the answer is no, then that's where the issues are... not with STAYING smoke free but rather with WANTING to stay smoke free.
The thing is Kayla, if you smoke, you're not letting ANYTONE down except yourself. Perhaps if you do make that promise, you will be more likely to take enough time to think about that decision to smoke that you will decide that it's really not what you want afterall. If you REALLY want to stay quit, then your quit will be so important to you that you will do whatever it takes to keep it. If you're at a place where the quit is not that important to you, then ask yourself why and deal with that. You CAN stay quit right now, even despite all of the things going on in your life, IF you really want to. Do you?
I'm really sorry about your problems. Teenagers can be really mean and brutal sometimes and it sounds like what she's doing to you is not right and it's not fair and I really am sorry that you're going through this tough time right now. One day, she'll see how right you really were (probably when she has kids of her own) but right now, she just won't. I do hope that you and your daughter straighten things out soon. (((((hugs)))))
Crave the Quit!
