I'm sorry to hear that you went back again, but my advice to you is, Number 1, GET RID OF ALL YOUR SMOKING PARAPHERNALIA! Every bit of it; cigs, vapes, ashtrays, lighters, matches, everything! Throw it out in the garbage, but not the garbage in your house or outside your house. Find a public garbage and get rid of it! You cannot have any smoking materials near you! If you want to seriously quit, you need to do this!! I know you can do this @Pilgrim, but you have to listen to all of us, and most of all, YOU HAVE TO WANT IT!! If you don't want it, this won't happen. You have to reach deep inside yourself, talk to yourself and realize that the only way you will quit smoking is, if YOU want it! We can support you and help you, give you advice and tricks to help, but YOU must want it! It won't work otherwise! I'm sorry if I seem harsh but, it's the ONLY way! Come on here every single day and do the NOPE pledge, stay close to the board, play the games, just do it!! This is my 2nd time quitting, the first time I quit for 6 years and then went back, but I believe if I found this board back then, I would have never gone back to smoking. Support is the key Pilgrim, addicts need support, and we are ALL ADDICTS!! I hope you take all of our advice, because we know exactly what you are going through!!! JUST DO IT!!!

NOPE!

G’day NOPE .....Not One Puff Ever. Manly boat harbour bayside brisbane

Sorry to hear you relapsed @Pilgrim As you've pointed out, this addiction is strong and requires the utmost, unwavering commitment to leave it behind. I worry you haven't seemed to be able to reach this level of commitment and are still, somewhere in the back of your mind, romancing the cigarette (& vape) and only putting a toe into the water of quitting. The reason I say this is that you aren't willing to just destroy those cigs & the vape. You want to use it up before starting another quit. You MUST jump into your quit fully ... no matter what comes at you. It's the only way any of us can be successful. These rules don't just apply to you, they apply across the board ... to ALL of us. All of us here on the Quit Train want you to reach your goal of being smoke free for life but the primary ingredient to success is within you and you MUST find a way to bring that commitment out and make it your number 1 priority through the period of withdrawal and beyond it until you learn once again how to live your life as a non-smoker. It's the only road to success. We all must travel it; there's no shortcuts. We all stand here eager and willing to support you!

I am saying NOPE to smoking for today.

I am not going to smoke today. NOPE.

Yeah, it was probably the leftover cigs and liquid.... I know it's self-destruction but I want to use it up and then quit again when my supply is exhausted. I've been reflecting a lot as I relapse. I had the old, crumpled pack of cigarettes stuffed down the side-pocket of my backpack since long before I quit. I thought my vape liquid (my preferred means of nicotine delivery) had run dry - that was actually my starting point for this Quit - but discovered a half full bottle just after relapsing and was pleased. In my seven days Quit I was biking and jogging almost daily. I was just starting to enjoy the sensation of my lungs opening up and my sense of smell sharpening. It felt good. The relapse has been intense. I went from just one cigarette to one an hour ...in one cigarette. And of course I couldn't wait to get home from my night shift to dig out the vape and load it up. Since then it's been shameful surrender to the addiction. I can feel my body saturated in nicotine and those sweet endorphins it releases. I can feel all the old, familiar monsters too. The stink, the cold, the jitters, the pain and the fear ...the toll. It's so sweet, and oh so stupid. This time when the cigarettes and liquid run out I'll hit the road running and won't look back.
