what happened hun? be sure that you douse that pack with water before you throw it away so you won't be tempted.

Wish you would have asked for help or put on the patch BEFORE you bought cigarettes.
Plz douse them with water and throw the things away.
You already know different avenues to relieve stress......give them a try instead.
If you really want to quit......just do it!

What caused you to go out and buy a pack?? Stress, anger, sadness?
Did lighting up change any of that?? I doubt it. Plan ahead of time how you will deal with those emotions WITHOUT reaching for that cancer causing cig. Come here whenever it gets bad.
Lots of luck tomorrow

It was like I blacked out and then I was just hooked again after that first smoke. Weird but I have the patch on again. Yay!

Maybe you are not ready to quit. You have to be mind ready to quit an addictive habit. The reason I say that is, once you quit, you have to work on it every day for the rest of your life, it is never ending. Some people can't do it.

With that in mind, quitting and restarting and quitting again is also never ending.

Breaking an addictive habit is hard, all us quitters know it. So get yourself a plan know why your wanting to quit and then work from there.

I well remember those head games I used to play with myself. IE I can't quit today because the kids are driving me nuts, or the dog just died, or well, truthfully, any excuse would do. I had to learn to separate the "stinkin' thinkin'" from the worthy brain talk before I could actually stay quit. Good luck to you.

World, you can NEVER have just one, they run in packs.
