Most people realize after they've lit up again that it was a big mistake and they regret it but unfortunately, the addiction's already been awakened by the time you realize that and you have to start the quitting process all over again. As you're finding out, there's no easy way to quit ... no way to completely avoid those compelling cravings so you simply must not listen to your junkie brain when it tells you you need a smoke - You Don't! That's just your addiction talking and wanting to control your daily life again. Don't let it @Sal You have already received great advise from others on how to avoid lighting up again while trying to quit. Follow that advice and just get it done ... NO excuses! That's the only way back to freedom Sal! Wishing you strength and commitment
