Why Why Why.....did I have to start all over after 288 daze

[jonnyfry]

Hey all my EX'ers.  

Day 8 (again) UGG.  Dam I hate this feeling.  I am so "bitchy" I even hate me today.  Day 8 so I know this is just part of the quit but I just don't like feeling this way.  Going back to the gym today and thnk that will help.  Planning on taking the motorcycel out this Sunday (it helps clear my head) and that is with a great buddy of mine who does not smoke.   Hope all are doing ok.  Thanks for letting me sound off and being there.  I will check in more often this week as I do miss you "guy's".

So sorry, just trying to figure out the same damn thing.  Because it's an addiction and becuase there's no such thing as just one....  Don't hate yourself, the past is the past.  In fact, congratulate yourslef on day 8 and move on.  Waste of perfectly good energy hating oneself and beating ourselves up.  It happens.  As I said, lesson learned.

Defintiely take all this negative energy to the gym and the motorcycle.

Be peaceful....

Great advice from Courage! Ditto Congrats on 8 Days. First week Done!

Good job on 8 days.

I think it's because you gave yourself permission to smoke after you decided you wouldn't.

It took the power out of the promise

but, you've made a new one and we're here to help you keep it!

It happened and its over, you learned the hard way, called tough love...  Go wash your face and comb your hair and lets get rocking on today, shall we!!!!

LOL....I just LOVE you "guys"  Thanks for the Bitch slap Jackie.  I needed that today

[Ms.J_11-10-2013]

@Dale, can you paste a bitch slap in here for me?

[LouiseR]

You've done this before so you know you can do this BUT this time come here daily and read and blog.  Make this your forever quit.  We are all here to help you!  Congrats on day 8 and keep stacking those days!

[YoungAtHeart]

I am glad you found us and have quit again.  Just continue to tell yourself there is never a good reason to smoke.  As you have learned the hard way, there are only excuses.

Just make the decision and then honor it - you don't smoke now NO MATTER WHAT!

We will be with you every step of the way!

hey cute Dale

Jonny, I cannot tell you how much I disliked myself at the beginning of my quit.  I thought that there could not possibly be another person as bitchy and impatient as me...then I decided that it really didn't matter because I wanted to be alive and if I had to go through this to get to a point of feeling like I was doing something positive for myself, it was worth every minute.  You know you can do this.  You HAVE.

Day 8 is great......and the 288 were days that your body was spared being poisoned by cigarettes......

Smart thing is that you jumped back on the quit....

When I lost a 700+ day quit.....I waited years....I'm still floundering.....You, my boss are doing great.....
