As we all know quitting smoking is a personal journey for everyone. We all have the same ultimate goal and that is to stop smoking and become a non smoker. This is my third and last quit in a year, I do not intend to ever go back to smoking again, I relapsed twice and every time I feel the crave begin I think back to how I felt immediately after re-lighting a cigarette, but how did I reach those points how did I come to relapse. The addiction talked to me and I listened. It kept telling me how sweet it would be to smoke again, it kept telling me how much I missed the taste of smoke, how much I needed the high from smoking, and me well I listened to all the lies, I wasn't strong enough to stop these thoughts. I am going to let you all know how I am dealing with the addiction talking to me and how I am dealing with them. Might be good for all you long term quitters to lets us know how you dealt with the addiction when it talked to you to.
