😊 NOPE.....NEVER/EVER/FOREVER

OH ! My Beautiful Women !

-5 hello darling creatures (smoke free) and Meow! @beacon ! nice to see you !

Drinking alcohol is responsible for many a relapse. I would re-engrave NOPE on my brain any time I went out drinking. In fact, early in my quit, I refrained from drinking and was slightly concerned that I would blow my quit if high. Then, I just said, 'screw it, I'm NOT going to smoke EVER again' and went out, had a ball and didn't even think about smoking. Don't depend on your friends to not provide you with a smoke. There will always be someone handing you one somewhere. Smokers, addicts, LOVE company. Fortify yourself and wrap yourself in the armour of NOPE. With this cloak you can go anywhere and keep your quit.

Here are some great resources from our friend, Joel Spitzer, Alcohol and Quitting Smoking That may help you to understand why you relapsed and how to guard yourself against future triggers.

From our Canadian friends, The Road To Vaping "This story is part of Vape Fail, a CBC News series examining some of the policy failures that led to the adoption of vaping as a smoking alternative and the resulting consequences."

Hey Mighty One, I am so glad to hear your quit is going so well ! I have no experience with 'contact every day' other than the general public smokers I daily walk by, feeling compassion for them and incredibly grateful that I quit and haven't the tiniest shard of a crave or trigger to smoke. Time is our friend, in this case. Here are some resources from our friend, Joel Spitzer, that addresses this issue How Can I Quit If I Live With A Smoker I understand that many of the points he brings up are not applicable to you. I just hope by posting, others with similar circumstances will benefit.

What made you throw away a 30 day quit ? Did you think a cigarette would fix something or give you an 'ahhh' moment ? Change your quit date to acknowledge your new quit and have a think about why you relapsed, why you made the choice to smoke. Educate yourself about nicotine addiction, you need to have these resources at your fingertips. Good for you for getting back on a quit asap. This is exactly the right move. Think about what our friend, Sirius, asks, "The next time a craving plunks down on your face ask yourself, "What price you are willing to pay to own yourself?"

Neurologically I get higher tonight Crypt those cryptic crosswords are insane hey @mightyboosh, how's your quit going ?

To hear this from a new quitter is v. inspiring to me and the best part of hanging out here, watching the beautiful transformations. Because acknowledgement of addiction is seminal to a successful quit, to see you, @Old Man Coffee, understand that addiction 'will always be with us' and begin to reap the benefits of your freedom shows what a successful quit you are building. Kuddos ! A zillion kuddos. The desire will fade and fade and fade as each crave/trigger is conquered but, we must always understand that addiction can be re-ignited with one puff. " It is something we didn't just experiment with, we are addicts. These words sound discouraging, but to me they are the opposite" The empowerment bestowed by putting our addiction to sleep is extremely encouraging. Thank you for the great post, Old Man Coffee.
