Planning to start again on day one

[aberdeen]

Hello my dear friends

Finally decided to give it all another go, so if you will have me back in the fold, Have been stocking up with patches, reading up again and Tuesday hopefully will become my day one.

I have been totally gutted that I caved in, I just hope I can be an example to anyone even contemplating even just one puff. Total undoing of a good quit

It didn't take long to pick up on the old dirty habit, am ashamed how easily I was conned into believing that cigs would help the situation.

Hubs and I are still going through really uncertain times, but we know that smoking won't help, we are walking a tightrope at the moment but realising that ciggies won't help us to keep our balance.

Linda, If you read this, I hope things pick up for your Hubby too as I know you are in the same awful situation.

Anyway I won't go on, just want to say how much I missed everyone and If I can come back and give it another shot with your support to get me back on that road again.

I hope everyone is well, and despite all the problems that we all have or are facing, that they have got through without succombing as I stupidly did.

Love to you all

Abs

So pleased to see you Hun, know everyone else will agree that you're welcomed back with open arms xxxx

I agree with Krid Aberdeen...I'm looking forward to seeing my "little buddy" again.

I don't think there would ever be any reason not to welcome you back into the fold, as i truly believe you never left the fold... yes we are quitting, smoking, yes you had a major major slip, but its not stopped you wanting to quit smoking, and sometimes to stay standing you need to know how much it hurts when you fall which is whats happened here.

Your standing again, and ready to quit again, and thats great!! I think you've learned enough to carry the quit forwards, and I hope things between you and your OH improve too.

WB, and see you soon.

Thank you Krid, Wolfe (Big Buddy) and Jase for the lovely welcome & I so appreciate your support.

Have removed my ticker in readiness! That was enough to make me think just seeing where I would have been.

I managed to almost make month 5, the furthest I have ever been If I did it then I can do it again, but have gained valuable experience from my fall from grace!!

Feel a bit nervous, but will spend the rest of the weekend thinking positive thoughts!

See you soon

Aw Aberdeen my love
Im soooooooooooooooo pleased to read this post and it gose with out saying we will ALL welcome you back home with your quitting buddys. Your not the only one to ever fall hun but the important thing is your picking yourself back up. i myself dont 6 months smoked for a few weeks then 8 months and caved again for a week or two then this quit. The thing you must remember is your just making life harder for yourself putting your self back at day one. so be good to your self chick and stay smoke free for ever because someone once said to me once you have started quitting you will never be happy smoking again and for me its been true. i will stop rambling now and look forward to haveing you back. Made my weekend you have chick.xxxxxxxxxx

It's wonderful to see you back Abs!!!!!
Now as to that question of welcoming you back to the fold..........mmmmmm let me see.............I don't know.............I may have to consult the elders............OF COURSE WE WILL!!!!
You can do it again Abs and much much more. Good on you for getting back to it so soon, it took me 10 years to try again when I broke a 1 year quit.
I hope things settle down for you and your hubby soon and things get happier for you
