Blew It!!!

Well, I had 1 month 1/2 weeks under my belt and I blew it the day before Easter. Sorry everyone. I can blame everyone else, but I need to be blaming myself. I did have a fight with hubby about I don't even know what any more, and he said he didn't care if I smoked, blah blah blah, so I thought about it and I did. I know it was really stupid. I was just so mad at the time. He was saying how much he wanted to do what he wants to do and how much he was so tired of it, so I said well I am going to do what I want to do. But anyways, I am not smoking any more. I am done with it. It made me sick, to tell you the truth. I told him I just wanted him to care what I did. And he said from now on he is going to care if it means me not smoking. We had a good Easter, for the exception of me smoking. I am 1 day 49 minutes free from smoking. It sucks that I had to start over, but hopefully I will learn from it. I didn't even go to church on Sunday and that made my day really stink. But oh well. Things will get better. It has just been a bad Spring Break for all of us. A lot of our plans got cancelled. We did go to San Diego to visit my aunt, and we were supposed to go to some places, but that fell through. Oh yeah, this stinker almost got me into another car wreck today by trying to pull in front of me to get past. I have had it with driving, and I am scared of it now. Well, hope everyone else had a Happy Easter.

Forget driving. I wish you were more scared of smoking...which is infinitely more likely to kill you than a car wreck.

Awwwww Annie 😞 , but I am glad to hear you jumped back to your quit right away. Stay that way and rem. smoking doesn't help stress it only adds to your stress.

Don't beat yourself up, but use it to reinforce why you want to STAY quit.

And you know, I commend you for coming forth and sharing. 🙂 I have had previous quit attempts that were just that.. attempts. When I messed up, I was too ashamed and it led to smoking all over again. You have my support! Keep blogging here and gather some tools for the next time you might be tempted.

So you fell. Brush yourself off, get up and start again. Failure only comes from not getting back up when we DO fall. And don't apologize to us sweetie! We're only here to support you, whatever the case. Apologize to YOU... and don't do it again ( =
