Thanks Duffis :) Nope stickin to it, I honestly don't. Last time I quit for a yr and 4 mos without one slip, not one puff and I relapsed. Who's to say what it takes for each of us as individuals to quit for good? Some do gr8 and some never do & die. I have not one regret b/c it's only made me want to quit more and that desire has to be there and it wasn't before the slip. I don't know why u want me to beat myself up, lol, it wouldn't help if I did. I made it through a few cravings today with flying colors and very happy to be smoke-free. So stickin to it, is this your 1st quit? What's your story? Enough pointing the finger at me cuz there's 3 pointing back at u :) I'm in a good mood and happy after a very hard long 6 day struggle. Just breathe.........

I guess I qualify for an "oldie" in response to your question; I quit and never looked back. For me it took a dedicated reason to quit and I gave it about 30 days planning before I actually quit. Over the past two and a half years I came close one time and that was when Pete made her first solo landing on water. I didn't smoke but I sure peeeeeeeeeeed myself and that was that. I don't even think about it any more and I guess I am blessed that way. Keep the faith Cherie you really can do this, it just takes patience, dedication and caring.

Since I'm an addict I can be anal lol and in being accurate before I reset my meter I had 600 not smoked so I subtracted 40 cig's but only smoked 6. To keep my meter accurate I should add a day and 3/4, lol. That's not what's really important though. What's important is the journey of life. And I don't regret my past nor last night, at all. I wouldn't be as committed to quit as I am today if it weren't for last night or my quit a yr ago or the one in 1999 for that matter, lol. I would not be who I am today if not for my past and even though I had a really tough emotional week, I am proud of myself for my 11yrs sober and for not smoking 594 cig's in the last 30 days. One can only fail if they don't try. I am far from a failure. Would love to hear from the oldies but goodies on this site in regards to this thread :) Just breathe.........

Cherie It is whatever you would like it to be. You are the boss, at the wheel and in control. Personally I never like looking back so just try really, really hard to stay quit and post often.

Ain't my first rodeo! I slipped at the beginning & reset my meter to subtract the 2 days I smoked. If I were to slip now, I would feel that I had to set it back to 0. I can't really explain why. I just feel that at 85 days, a slip is different than it is at 5 days and has to be treated differently. Your meter is yours, it's up to you what you do with it.

I would really like to know who's on there 100% very 1st time quiting? And also, how many people in here have slipped (even a couple puffs), during this quit that they're in right now? Who slipped and didn't reset their meter back to 0? Step right up :) I'm doing my best & being honest every step of the way & out of 566 cig's I've smoked 6 and not smoked 560. And I set my meter back 2 days which is my choice, btw :) Ok your turn to moon everyone with the bold face truth :) LOL Just breathe.........
