Help I slipped

18 years ago 0 +0 / -0 37

Den, Please excuse my noisiness...but I am very curious as to how it made you feel afterwards? Did it taste nasty or make you cough? Was it so gross that you don't think that you'll ever do it again?

I so admire you for gettting back on the wagon !! I wish I could. When I slipped, I gave up & ... fell through the ice ?? Now I have to start all over. I feel awful -- like I broke my promise to quit. Like I'm a weakling. I set a new quit date for this Friday -- this week I have some medical procedures to get done - Friday will be the last one & it's getting my upper teeth pulled & getting tooth implants with snaps for a new upper plateof beautiful white teeth. I hope that proves to be an extra motivator for me. I went 6 days without a cigerette & then was to down on myself to post. I feel dirty & stinky again - but the worst feeling is that of letting myself down & giving that awful control back to those packs of poison ! I'll be back with all of you who are so strong & ..... helpful -- I'll remember that when I feel weak, I'll post first! I know that I can do it. I'll be back.
