My willpower is about to be put to the test

[LisaC]

I started vaping 12/15. Haven't had an analog since. I've been smoking since I was 11 (I'm 33), finally quit cold turkey 9 years ago. After 3 years of not smoking, we were in a car accident, and my oldest son died. Immediately went back to smoking. Found out some very bad stuff 3 days ago, and I asked my husband to move out this morning. So far, I've been doing okay with my PV, but if anyone has some prayers/good thoughts they can spare, please send them in my direction, I'm going to need it!

I.Am.Not.Going.To.Smoke.Ever.Again. I refuse to give in.

Sending all good things your way!!!!



The problem with quitting is that it's easier to not. Do not let this addiction make your decisions for you. Everything you're going through is bad enough, and you don't need the guilt of smoking to add to that. You are stronger than a cigarette. You can do this!!!

From one Lisa to another - I'm sending all my positive thoughts your way. So sorry to hear about the bad stuff, but us Lisa's are strong, I know. Hang in there - you can do it! Let me know how you do, ok?

 

[SpiderMo]

Sorry to hear about all of this and my prayers and good thoughts will surely go your way.

I can't say I know what your going threw. But keep being strong.... I know falling of vaping back to analog's makes it harder to go back to vaping.. So keep your head up and hang in there....

Just take it one day at a time that's all any of us can do you will be in my thoughts and prayers. Don't give up.

 

[LisaC]

Thanks to all of you. I appreciate the kind words. Happy to see another Lisa, I've never known one IRL. Isn't that strange? It's not that obscure of a name! I will let you know how it all goes!

Positive thoughts and prayers headed your way Lisa. You can make it through this. Some things you have no control over. You do have control over not smoking cigarettes and vaping. Do not hesitate to let everyone know when You need extra support.

May You have an Angel on Your Shoulder!!!!

It was once said, "if you can't walk, you crawl and if you can't crawl you find someone to carry you". I'm doing that for you right now Lisa. God bless you . . .

Yes Lisa one day at a time. Yesterday I was like you with the analog craving but I stayed strong and made it through without giving in. Today I am so happy I did and you will be too.

Hang in there Lisa...'this too shall pass' is my mantra during hard times.
Sending prayers and positive vibes your way.

 

[StarrzChylde]

Sending lots of love, positive thoughts, and prayers your way! I know it's hard to see the end of the tunnel when you are plunged in the darkness, but there is a light there, even if it is hard to see at times.
If you need someone to talk to, even if its just to get your through a few minutes at a time, I'm only a PM away!

Stay strong Lisa and always remember that analogs are the enemy and they wish to destroy you. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

When my son died I hid behind a bottle for ten years. So I can tell you for a fact that such crutches do not work (smoking included) Whether it's a death or ending a relationship, the grieving process is what it is. Understanding that makes it a lot easier to accept.

So hang in there, we've got your back.

 

[rustybikes]

Lisa - I'm saddened to hear of the trouble you're goin' through. I'm sending good thoughts your way and I hope they help. Stay strong.

I was reading your thread Lisa, and my wife could tell from across the room I was bummed out. She asked whats wrong and so I read your post, my whole family stopped to listen and then there was a moment of pause. Your story struck a cord with everyone in this house. Fast forward to dinner tonight and my daughter looked up at me before we sat down and said, "that lady is strong and she's been thru so much but she didn't go to the gas station to buy a pack of cigerettes instead she asked for prayer. So dad can we make sure tonight we pray for her." Lisa tonight just like everynight before we sit down to eat we prayed but then everyone in are family wanted to say a special prayer just for you so we went around the table and did just that. Me, my wife and kids hope you feel better soon and remember Lisa your worth it, everyone on this thread that has quit smoking had a reason for quiting and every once in a while we need to remind ourselfs that we are worth it.

He said it best. You have support here. So post when you need to and feel when you need to. You have so many open ears (or eyes, I guess) Here to help you. Positive thoughts and energies to you. Stay strong.

Dang it t40forty! I was so proud of myself for not crying, and now I'm in my room with the door locked, doing just that. Thank every one of them for me, will you?

And I want to thank ll of you for the support and kind words. They mean a lot to me.

I will get through this, I don't plan on wasting another minute of my life on something I can't change. I will not smoke, because my daughter asked me not to, and I quit for them. She proudly tells everyone that I quit because she asked me to, and I won't take that from her.

You guys are the best. Thanks.

Don't give in...not worth it!! Good luck.
