awww welcome cyrsalis so nice to see you here :)

So for a week or so now I have felt its presence you can actually feel it coming to the front my excuses for entertaining it oh Im in a different country, I have no friends here, no job, no car etc etc I am alone in the day and all I know is my old friend Smokey - he will keep me company!! thats something familiar that I could do right??? I was fighting these thoughts and thought what great excuses I have to relapse, no one could blame me surely!! I didn`t want to tell anyone about it as I didn`t want anyone to talk me out of it! it all came to ahead on my birthday, too much wine and feeling sorry for myself again, missing my family and a hug from them (birthdays are always special in my family) I purposely fell out with Rez so this would give me even more of an excuse! I stormed out of the hotel and went stomping downtown on my own/drunk! with only one purpose and that was to buy Cigs I did buy them! I had them in my hand - mission complete - now what? STOP THINK!! choice 1 - open and smoke go back to square one and be a smoker choice 2 - return to hotel a non smoker I chose choice 2 - I returned to the hotel, no Rez OMFG where has he gone I was more worried about him then, he obviously went looking for me worried sick what I was going to do crave hit again now - OMG what have I done phew Rez returns - I confess to buying cigs but not had one - he suggests we go out - I agree I need distractions craves all gone, just glad we are safe and non smokers go to casino meet some crazy couples and end up spending the evening with them guess what they are all smokers! no crave I just watch them and Rez is my non smoking bouncer - NOPE and it was gone, all that drama gone on return to the apartment yesterday I took myself off to reflect as that scared the living daylights out of me the night before, how easy it could have been to throw away 8 months just like that on reflection I asked myself Tracey seriously do you want to be a smoker or a non smoker? I really looked in depth in myself and my answer was a non smoker no matter what it takes day by day for the rest of my life if thats what it takes and sometimes it will be like that as there will always be something that I could use for an excuse right my name is Tracey I am a nicotine addict and this was my brush with relapse today is a better day :) stick to NOPE its our best weapon

its a good thing to reflect doreen and to reaffirm that contract to yourself of why you quit and what you put yourself through to get to the freedom you have today when a dear friend has relapsed it does bring this question to the front of your mind and its a time to sit down with oneself and have a cuppa and a real honest talk to ones self i did this to myself yesterday and i will continue to do this to myself for as long as it takes - decades if need be this verbal contract is a lifetime contract but sometimes we have to go back to a day at a time again NOP doreen and eventually EVER will come xxxxxxx tough love - dont use your feet for just 1 hour or just 1 day and then imagine being like that for the rest of your life!!! chin up sweet lady today is just a bad day, tommorow will be better xxxxxx

oh Jackie whatever is going on in your personal life, I hope it gets sorted hun please PM or facebook message no lectures just a shoulder for you and maybe help get head straight a few days ago this could have been me posting this post i will put up a post about it I wish now i had posted it earlier as it may have helped you :( all I can say is now you have to really reflect on what you want, stress and bad situations are a part of all our lives the only difference is what we really want at the end of the day to be a smoker or to be a non smoker i hope at the end of the day hun you want to be a non smoker and you come back to us ASAP before it gets a hold of you please stay close to the board, go back to basics if you need to we will always be here for you xxxxx
