I have beat my self up for relapsing yet again and it has took a lot for me to come back mainly because I am embarrassed, but I don't mind if any of you want to give me some tough love if it means being given another chance for the support, im not going to give excuses because that would be just stupid as there is none.

I am grateful to marti who has been there for me over the last couple of days and is always there whenever I need her.i thank you for that xx

 

No smoking. It's so simple don't get caught in brained - spider conversation inside yourself JUST NOPE

smoking is not an option

I did it so can you.

Laura..i know it's hard but coming back here is the smartest thing to do....and also shows that you want to quit...you want accountability...the question is..how bad do you want it??  More than your desire to smoke?  Also....if the situation were to come up again...how will you handle it? 

Get back on the train...stay close...read read read..watch the videos...make it a point to unbrainwash your stinkin thinkin which includes romancing the cigarette...no more!!  from now on...Not One Puff...Ever....No matter what.

 

Welcome back!  We missed you!

 

Now...lets get to it, shall we??

Welcome back.

 

Muppet

 

Good practice quit.

 

You can do this Laura.

Your seat has been waiting.....never give up....giving up.....

Learn by your mistakes.....

You can do this......smoking is not n the table ....ever....

Glad your back....

Laura, good to see you back.  None of us are any less addicted or any stronger than you are.  Please just make up your mind that there are no circumstances in which you will smoke.  No excuses...you do not smoke!

I am glad you came back Laura, never ever be embarrassed, we all need support, thats why we are here

 

But others are right you really have to mentally take smoking off the table regardless of what the circumstances to keep a sticky quit

 

Education and support will help you with that, so you absolutely did the right thing by coming back x

Welcome back Laura , no looking back, full steam ahead, back on board, you have our full support my lovely, no excuses it happened learn from it and take strength from it, xx

Super glad you came back Laura!  It's the best place to find ourselves.

hi Laura... also very glad to see you made your way back :)

Read about the addiction Laura and make some changes this time around :)

Welcome back Laura. We all have our problems....it often takes many attempts to succeed in your quit. But always come back. People here do not judge....they empower you. xx

So glad you didn't give up Laura. 

This is done one day, one hour or one minute at a time.

Just know that it is SO doable. 

Welcome back :)

Laura, why do you think you decided to smoke ? Was there anything you can pin point? .....The other day someone checked in here to tell us she had made it to nine months. I was so pleased to hear this because she had relapsed at least twice from what I knew and then started over a few times. I had not heard from her so I had wondered. But she was ok! She started over and won this time. So, you will too. May I suggest : Post every day the pledge. Spend a few minutes each day committing through posting here, reading, or other mindful quitting activities.

Smoking is such a flipping beotch.  Punch it in the face! 

 

Seriously though,  for some of us it takes a couple of "tries."  When we stop trying and starting "doing,"  that is when we succeed.  I'm going to DO this now.  I'm going to STOP.  I am free.  I may have struggles and want to smoke, but I will not.  I will distract myself.  I will cry.  I will look in the mirror and say

 

NOT AT THIS MOMENT CIGARETTE!   NOT EVER.  I HAVE CHOSEN NOT TO SMOKE ,AND I WILL NOT SMOKE.     

 

You can do it Laura.  Don't ever give up and believe you can't.  You can.

I'm glad you got back on the quit train.  We will never shame you.  You have it in you to quit and the sure fire way to do it is.....Don't smoke.  No matter what.  

Thankyou everyone I have a plan in action and a new quit date I want to be very prepared mentally to give me the best chance x

Hey Laura - welcome back .... Remember we are here for you :-)

Quit f ucking around and do it for real this time.
