NOPE for me too.

Good to hear Kiwilee :D Sounds like you have a great attitude on this quitting thing and will be able to handle the challenges that come at us all during our journey. You are just now getting through the worst of it so hang tough and take back your smoke-free life :training1:

Unfortunately, I have to go somewhere at 7:00 AM tomorrow at the height of the blizzard here. No matter what happens, all I know is - I won't be smoking during my white-knuckle drive :P

Geez +1

I'm glad you came across this site. We are all here to support each other, first and foremost. Please join us on the daily NOPE pledge thread - we'll be looking for you there :D

Zero I'm all out of disappointed GIF's for now <_<

Check in with us Kiwi and let us know how you are doing. We all want to do whatever we can to help you stay with your quit. It is overwhelming at times but you just need to breathe deeply (as others have said) and stay with your quit. It will get better with time. You were not born with a cigarette and a nicotine addiction, you acquired that along the way. You can get back to your original non-smoking self by just never taking another puff. Your body and mind will adjust in time and you'll have taken your life back. Stay with us Kiwi :) If I can do it; so can YOU!

Well, you have come to a good place for support in your new Quit and 5 minutes in is better than 2 minutes in so just keep marching forward (as Bakon would say). I'm wondering if you know why you relapsed after a 3 year quit? If you don't understand why that happened then it may well happen again. What have you learned from your relapse and is this the 1st time you have relapsed? This is an addiction and we are all addicts and always will be so pledging NOPE each and every day, if not on a board like this at least to ourselves, is key to making a quit stick permanently. One puff leads to one cigarette. & one cigarette. leads you back to being a full time smoker. Guess I don't need to tell you that it's up to you alone to make this happen. We are here for support and we also like to have a little fun around here as well. Quitting smoking doesn't have to be all doom & gloom. Enough preaching from me for now. Welcome aboard the Quit Train. Let's make this your last quit!! Read all you can here about this addiction and watch the videos that are available. The more you understand this addition, the better prepared you will be to fight it. We'll share what we can to help you make this permanent and perhaps you'll enjoy being part of our very special community :) See you around.
