I smoked a cigarette today

I’ve been trying to quit.

My mom got a few from my brother in law and gave me two. Damned temptation. I don’t buy them anymore and I don’t bum off people so the only way that they find their way into this house is if my mom gets them.(My dad doesn’t smoke).

Oh well.

And your mom probably thinks she’s doing you a favor. Be firm with her.

Tomorrow is a new day.

Quitting smoking was really hard. I tried several times. I finally stopped when we were trying to conceive. I quit in November and was expecting twins in March.

I could do that. It’s really my own fault though. I couldve said “No THanks”. It’s just easier when the temptation isn’t there.

Yeah. I agree. But you can do it! Try again if there’s a next time. Don’t sell yourself short. You can do it!

Quiting smoking cigarettes is hard, especially when your family or friends don’t support you in this regard. But you can still do it. It doeasn’t matter you occasionally have one cigarette. Don’t give up.

Don’t let it dissuade you if you’re determined.

I think it was Oscar Wilde who said “The only way to deal with temptation is to give in to it entirely.” Nonetheless, get yer gumption up, and next time just say no thanks. Then you can tick it off your list of “things I did right today.”! :smile:

Smoking is one of few things I enjoy in life. Smoking calms me down.

When I was in hospital my dad also gave me a pack of Marlboro. Made me restart and took me years to quit.

I don’t think it’s okay to offer you cigs.

I hope you get it out of your system quickly.

My dad smoked nearly everyday of his life. He died from a heart attack. His heart was no good. It does no good to any one to smoke those nasty cigs. I hope you get well .hugs.

Just don’t buy any and it’s fine. Obviously the nicotine will make you want to buy some, but stay strong.

A little more decorations for your back yard.
Hang in there, @Bowens

Still trying to quit bowens?

I’m three days from my one month anniversary. It’s really nice except I can smell more and I’m sensitive to perfumes and colognes, they give me headaches.
