Welcome back 
Stress, cravings, whatevers can lead to the "I've got to have a CIGARETTE" moment(s). Only YOU can decide when enough is enough. If you need, come back here - someone will be more than happy to give you support and encouragement

Don't let that get you down. Cigarettes get a hold of you and it's hard to let go. The important thing is that you put them back down. Don't focus on the fact that you slipped a little, just that you got back to the good side
I went through the same thing. quit cigs for nine months then went through a high stress period and chose to start again. I made the decision to quit again and to not give in even when stressful times come up. so far so good been about two months. I have found getting more involved with rebuildables and doing a lot of juice sampling looking for new flavors is helpful for me.
Life happens. But I'm so glad you were able to make the switch back. Good for you! And hang in there. If you fall off the wagon again, just get right back on. 
Happy vaping!
Happy vaping!Glad to hear you're giving it up again. I know the pain of slipping, had quit for 7 years, had a very high stress run and started again. Just switched to vaping 2 weeks ago and so far it's been working. Keep your head up and look forwards.
Well at least you made the switch back. Some people have a hard time giving the real cigs up and some fall off the wagon and never get back on, but you have so give yourself a pat on the back. When I quit I fell off the wagon once and that was for 4 hours, my E-cig died and I was at the hospital with my dad he had a heart attack and I thought I was going to lose him and was so stressed I needed something..But I have since learned to keep extra stuff with me so I never will do it again. I have since gotten a provari that uses batteries instead of the regular e-cig batteries that you have to charge 1 at a time, now I just flip a new battery in that last me about 12 hours. I have now been almost 2 years smoke free..Even with my dad being in and out of the hospital for his heart and my brother just had a major stroke 3 weeks ago I haven't picked up a real cig, vaped a bunch of juice but that is it
so keep the good work up and remember to always keep extra juice and batteries with you..Happy Vaping!!The wife and I have been vaping for 2-3 months and we went to visit a daughter out of state. Had a party there and she got drunk and took a hit off a cig. She thought the taste was awful. Back to vaping and breathing better.
I discovered that there is more than one habit to deal with:
nicotine
breathe (in and out)
physical movement (hand to mouth)
movement trigger (phone rings, finished dinner, having a drink)
Need to distract my attention under stressful situations
I found that if I was aware of these triggers AND I could keep my nicotine level constant then the cigs were not an issue.
Oh, one more thing:
cigs give a head rush in about 7 seconds - you get addicted to THAT
Vaping nicotine takes a bit longer to get into you - be patient Do a 3-4 minute session until satisfed - relax and be patient
It works!

You could also consider getting a WTA liquid. Some ppl have a "something is missing" from their vape vs smoking, WTA helps some ppl with that. I just got some myself and I'm liking it so far. It could be that I just had a big meal and I'm in a good mood. Anyways welcome back and never feel guilty for going back and forth a bit.
Its funny how vaping has a different affect on everyone. I have found that after my first week vaping I tried a cig and it made me feel horrible and tasted disgusting. I have not thought about cigs since the day I started vaping really.
