Oh my god, can I ever relate to you, I was 53 days smober and then I smoked a whole pack of cigs in one night, then I quit again,,,,cold turkey, I have been smober now for 20 days,,,,before I was using the patch and gum, but when I committed to cold turkey, I did it. One thing that helps me immensely is that I chew on flavored toothpicks....juju stx....you can find them on quit smoking dot com. google juju stx.
anyway, it took some courage to admit that I had really slipped, I had been slipping with a puff here and puff there, one cig here and there, but when I bought a whole pack, I knew I had to admit it and start over, and I am so glad I have done that.....I think if I slip now, I will have to restart again,,,,,and its actually easier to not smoke,, then to contemplate quitting again. Another thing I did was download a quit meter off the internet to put on my desktop, so every time I look at my computer I can see my progress, its one thing to check in here at this website but to have that meter on my desktop is very motivating,,,,,,another thing that is a major motivator for me...........DON'T SPEND ANYMORE MONEY ON CIGARETTES AND KEEP MAKING THE CIGARETTE COMPAINES RICHER AND RICHER............GET ANGERY. We can do this I just know it. Jules
