Thanks, Unhooked. I guess it helps to know that I'm not the only one who forgot about NOPE! Those nicademons are nasty little suckers!

Thanks for the reminder. Sometime I feel like the queen on just one puff. Many of you know where that got me - a new quit date :eg: For you newbies this is real. That one puff can destroy a quit faster than you can shake a stick. When that monster wants you, he will say and do about anything to get you back. Then when you take that puff you say it's no big deal. I won't tell anyone and just keep on going. Well that ain't going to happen. Pretty soon that voice will tell you that you got by with the last time.

I'm another one. A little voice told me that "no one" can see me, so why don't you just try to smoke "one". It tasted awful and I got sick of it, but it didn't stop me from having "just one" a couple of days later. "Just one" turned into 3-4 a day and then into almost a package a day. I didn't tell my husband so I had to come up with new "stuff" I needed to do to have my cigarette, like driving to the Grocery stor/pharmacy/talking a walk. Best of all was if my husband had a reason to go somewhere so I would be by myself. How awful is that? Well, now I'm back and this time I know I can't have "just one".

Unhooked that was a year quit I blew. The real stupditiy on my part was letting her smoke in front of me in my apartment, she was there comforting me because the guy I quit smoking for had dumped me. I was so stupid I quit for somebody else and then chugged through 5 cigarettes to smoke for another 20 years.

Sue, "It took 5 cigs before they tasted good & I still did it" LMAO!! I know exactly what you mean, I've done that so many times. In fact the last quit I blew, I was in my friend's garage with another friend & asked for just a drag, I took one, said, "eewww that's gross", handed the smoke back to her & bummed one for myself. How stupid is that???
