Just reading this thread is huge. What great quitters there are here. Sparky, Stay tuned, keep dropping in and letting us know how you are doing. As Shevie says: [quote] As long as you desire to be smoke-free, then you are trying to quit. Trying is good enough for me.

Hey, Sparky! Don't beat yourself up over this. Slips happen, it's part of the game. You just keep plugging away until you get it right. During your brief hiatus from quitting ;p I want you to do something for yourself. I want you to examine every cigarette you smoke. Why are you smoking it? Is it helping? Is there something else you could/should be doing right now? Also, notice the details of smoking: the heat of the cig between your fingers and on your lips. Notice the heat of the smoke as it goes into your mouth and down your throat. Notice the sting of the smoke in your eyes. Before you inhale, let a bit of smoke out and notice its color. Then notice the difference in the smoke's color as you exhale. Remind yourself that the change is because something was left behind, in you, coating your lungs. Do that at least twice with every cig you smoke and remember that it happens with each drag. Also remember that what is left behind is infusing itself into every cell of your lungs, altering their structures to set the stage for COPD, altering their DNA to set the stage for lung cancer. [u]Every drag[/u], Sparky. Don't worry about your slip. You do as I asked and your slip will be temporary, I assure you. And please do not say goodbye. You don't have to be quit to be here. You just have to want to be. IMO, as long as you desire to be smoke-free, then you are trying to quit. Trying is good enough for me. Stay close, Sparky. You ain't whipped yet. :eg: Shevie [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/23/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 481 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 9,639 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1827.8 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 89 [B]Hrs:[/B] 20 [B]Mins:[/B] 27 [B]Seconds:[/B] 14

Wow Sparky - that is sad news. But does not need to be the end of your quit - just a step backwards. Shevie's advice is the best I have read in an age. Try it and you will be back here tomorrow!

Sparky, don't give up. Just because you smoked today doesn't mean you have to keep smoking. It isn't the end of the line. Think it through and come back to join us when you have it sorted out.

Good Luck Sparky, You cannot do something that you are not ready for. Enjoy your smoking life and if you ever get to the point where you want to quit more than you want to smoke, come back, I may not be here but the site will.
