Great to see you toceveoD ! and so happy to hear you have kept your quit. I quit drinking for a while when I first quit, when I went back it was not a big deal. NOPE was etched into my soul and I didn't experience a crave or a trigger. But, I know with the relaxing of inhibitions things can go wrong so, protect your quit. Protect it with your life.

Congratulations @ekptr on your NINE months of Freedom ! Thank you for your update, it is wonderful to learn you are still free. Things will continue to get better for you except, the stench of tobacco may remain repugnant and the horrors of smoking always apparent. So happy you quit !

Thinking of you, bebe. So sorry you are going through this pain and also idiocy of roomie. Sending you noise cancelling headphones and art supplies, speedy healing and all the well wishes in this round world. We love you, kiddio.

Hey @Kate18, so glad you held your ground and so proud of QTrain for talking you down. Remember, your quit is still so young. Protect it with your life ! Here is another take on H.A.L.T, I still think HALT to myself...now, not about smoking but, about other things, it helps me stay current with myself and figure out what may be going on. Riffing On H.A.L.T. and have a stroll through Red Flags. It is full of the lies addiction presents to woo us back. You may have your own to share. Stay focused. REWARD yourself !

ONE Cigarette...ONE flippin' PUFF. This IS THE BIG DEAL if you don't absorb the primary tenets of addiction then you will continue to fail. Stop being an idiot. You know better.
