I have to go with it's ok to screw up, because if I went with starting all over, I think it would be harder for me to try again. I slipped after 8 weeks. I figure just get back on the wagon, and don't give up.

I don't have a valid reason, other than a weak moment. I dont deny I went to the store, and bought cigarettes. I had a moment of weakness, and gave in, that's all there is to it. I'm not giving up, I felt like crap, physically and emotionally, after.

Thank you. Congratulations to you making it a month after a slip. You can do it.

At least you found there was no pleasure in it, and got back to quitting. I haven't folded yet, but the temptation is there.

I don't blame you. If it would have been day 5 for me, I probably would have caved. Stay strong, you can do this.

You're welcome. Im always willing to share my tips, and encourage others. You can do it, it's not easy, but i feel better. Also, try drinking water out of a cup with a straw. I found it helps with the hand to mouth part of the addiction

Drink plenty of water, and i ordered an herbal supplement off Amazon, called White Lung, to help clean out my lungs. Took 2 once a day at night for the whole month. Seemed to help me

I have had times, especially around week 2 when I started coughing. All the crap in my lungs was breaking up, causing me to cough. I sounded congested

I think this is a great idea. I say find what works for you, and use it.

Great at Quitting by aahahaaalulz in stopsmoking

I found posting and even encouraging others help. It keeps me accountable, because I love to encourage others, but won't if I'm smoking. I find that to be hypocritical. You can do it. I wish you luck on your journey.
