Trailbum, do you know what you did in staying smoke-free for 14 months? You proved to yourself that you can have long-term recovery from this addiction. And no matter what, no one can take that away from you.
When you're ready to get back on the wagon, you'll have that assurance in your tool-kit; you KNOW how to do this, you KNOW what's required, and you KNOW that you're capable of living your life without a cigarette. You know, because you've done it.
If we accomplish a smoke-free life, great, but we all do this for one day... for one moment. This moment.
I don't promise myself, "forever". I just promise myself, "now". And I know that if I string enough 'nows' together, that may end up being the rest of my life. But I can only have control over this moment.
You didn't throw away 14 months. That's yours. Now, the choice is...what will you do with this moment?
We're in your corner, Trailbum. We're rooting for you!
