Every relapse is deliberate

[Jonny5]

We never accidentally slip up and smoke.

 

Relapse happens because we justify smoking and then find the means to do so.

 

The only justification for smoking is to become a smoker, because that's what they do.

No two better men to kick you in the butt when you need it.  I'm glad that Jonny5 & Sarge had the words to break through your addiction to get you over that hump.  :)

Exactly!

 

No one puts the cigarette in your mouth and lights it. That's all you. Take ownership of that. 

 

Be accountable for justifying your "need" to have a cigarette. 

 

Quitting requires some serious commitment. 

[Doreensfree]

You choose to throw your quit away !!!

Yes that does sum it up! :rolleyes:

[Jules1977]

You are so correct , I had a few relapses and I chose to have a smoke. That's how I felt and I justified it to myself that I had done well for a few days and 1 wouldn't hurt. I am now 2 full weeks without a single puff and so happy.

Ok, so no-one gets "struck smoking" the same as they get struck by lightning.

 

I get it.

[Gemzee]

This is so true!
