You just finished Hell Week. I would love to be in your position, you should be celebrating.
Take a walk immediately for 1/2 hour and just enjoy how nice it is to have nicotine out of your system. See all the birds enjoying the moment right now in your backyard and notice how they don't worry about anything because there is nothing to fret about. It's the same with you.
Drink lot's of water.
Remember why you quit and go back and look at your list. Why would it have changed at this moment. Is it more likely you have some feelings that are coming up that you can just address and see them vs. using nicotine to block them out. Unfortunately they are still there and will not go away until they are observed. This could be a big breakthrough for you and smoking again is just going to hide the issue that will need to be looked at a later date.
Remember if you take a puff of a cigarette it's going to taste like it did when you first started smoking (horrible) but the nicotine receptors will have been woken up saying it's party time. When they say party time there is no way you will survive that unless you start like you did over a week ago, hell week squared. You will realize how bad it tastes and how you never needed it but it will be too late because tomorrow it will nag you again like it's doing now. Don't fall for the trap, you just got out of that horrible trap.
Just Don't do it.
