This is what I deal with every Australia Day. The murder of my Brother Ken Harris. I need help. Its kinda why I smoked NYE... not because of enjoyment but more cos we normally did. Even years later I couldnt NOT do it this year.

1) Don't even worry about the smokes. If you smoke every New Year's Eve out of tradition/rememberance .... so what? We all have our rituals/traditions... not all of them are 100% healthy. Bah.

2) As for the depression... make sure you talk to your doctor if it gets too out of hand. It can be overwhelming. I know what it's like to lose a brother (but not to murder). I can't imagine how hard that is for you. Hang in there, stick with us, and try to sick with vaping for your own health... but don't beat yourself up.

Thanks Atty I think I needed to hear that. Even with all my resolve this time of year gets too hard

As you can see by what I posted if u hit the links. My Bro's body was never recovered because of his murderer. He was my only sibling so yeah once a year I'm very weak. Huge improvement compared to how me and my parents were a few years ago.

I'm sorry for your loss.

I know it can't be easy losing your brother, but you will make it.

Have a smoke or two in remembrance.
I don't think anyone is going to fault you for it.

Agree with A.G. and A.P. Sometimes we need to do things for others and for our memory's. Have a smoke or two. Raise a glass. Laugh, cry and remember.

A handful of cigarettes once a year is not going to hurt anything - do it and have happy memories of your brother.
