So I Messed Up

17 years ago 0 +0 / -0 932

Hi Jojo, Welcome back. I'm in my 12th Day now. I failed on my first attempt because, thinking back on it, I Quit for the wrong reasons too. Now it's for me and all of those I love. Not material possessions. Go to your Glove Compartment and at the top, over to the right, click "Change My Person Profile." From there you can reset your meter. I'm so glad your back and are putting yourself first. You can do this for yourself and everything else will fall into place. We're all here for you.

Jojo, That settle it. March 9th it is! Start reworking the program tools and learn from your slip. What triggers contributed to it and how will you deal with them this time. We are cheering you on! Danielle _____________________ The SSC Support Team

JoJo Welcome back. Sometimes I think about returning to smoking myself. I visualize it, I also visualize how sick it will make me, how foul it will taste and how bad I will feel starting all over with the craves all over again. Each time I have slipped in a quit before, the cig always seemed to add to the craves I had to suffer before I got back to the level of craving I was before I slipped. It helps me not slip again. Perhaps the rewards you set for yourself were a bit too lofty. It will take a lot of unsmoked packs to get a house. I set smaller rewards for myself. I bought a pair of expensive shears to cut dog fur with. I had been dreaming of these shears for two years unable to afford them until I quit smoking. With the money from the savings in not smoking it was easy. I gave myself a reward of going to the movies as a non-smoker and enjoying the film instead of wanting to leave all the time to have a cigarette. Small rewards as you go along are very important, at least to me. My next goal is a new more powerful clipper. Not that expensive, but it means a lot to me. Small rewards at regular intervals makes the quit more real and more personal. Smoking adds nothing to your happiness, life or well being. Smoking only adds to the addiction and takes everything else away from you.
