Just do it again.

I Stopped in October relapsed then stopped agin in November and started right back up again then Stopped right before Christmas and have not had one since.

Even on the last couple of jobs I have been on have been a real bear and man did I want one but I held on.
It gets easier even when those bad days happen and you really want one.

I quit almost two years ago for about four months (with the help of some BOTLs). I'm ashamed that I relapsed and picked it up again. I really need to quit again....once and for all.

When I quit in December That was probablly the 10 th time I had done it over all. 2.5 years one time and started it back up. But for Some reason this one is different. I don't feel the the urgency and I have learned to relax a little better.
So when I want one I have a better time fighting through it.

I felt the same way with quitting this time as well. I tried quitting back in the winter of 2004 or 2005. It didn't fare well. First few days weren't so bad. Then I was getting so anxious and just mad. LOL I even threw a bad working VCR against the front door one morning. After that happened, I said to myself, quitting isn't worth losing it. I called my mom in law and asked her to pick me up a pack.

I remember thinking, I will know when the time is right to quit. This time I am more at ease with my choice. I am not ready to be around multiple people smoking yet though.
