HI Lisa
Please don't change your name!!!!
Remember, every quitting journey is different. As long as you don't quit on quitting you will be OK.
Now you know that third day is hard for you. So have a coping strategy in place for this. I slept almost 14 hours a day during the first four days, so maybe that can help.
I'm waiting for your post! I know you will succeed!!!!

Lisa, don't change your name just your quit date :-)  I know you can do this and you will.  If anything you know you can do this, look at me, how many times now :-)  As long as you keep trying you are not failing.  Those 9 months are yours and no one can take them away from you.  I will not give up on you as long as you don't give up on yourself. 
 
You know I wasn't going to post until I go xxx days, because I didn't want to fail again in front of everyone again.  When I made the decision to quit this last time I came right here and recommitted my quit to myself and to the SSC family.  Do what works for you, I will be looking for you when you are ready.  You will do this!!

Lisa,
 
It happens.  Please keep posting.  We are happy to support you whether you stay quit or not.  Even if it is a few more days of not being exposed to those harmful chemicals that is enough for us to support you through it.  Many quitters slip, the important thing is that you are still going to keep trying. 
 
What have you learned from this slip? What will you be doing differently this time?

I caved last night, I just keep doing it on the 3rd day it seems like....... I'll be here reading and praying and trying to gain strength but I'm not going to post again until I have made it thru hell week. I'm tired of feeling like I'm yanking you all and myself around, I must not have the committment in me that I had several months ago. You folks are the best supporters in the world. Never forget N.O.P.E , that one puff just aint worth it. I need to find that PMA you always talk about Jim, it's here somewhere.
