I’ve been a non smoker 82 days; and after a crazy mixture of good and bad over the holiday season I have a crazy urge to start again. For medical reasons I can no longer drink alcohol and emotions seem to always be my vulnerability to returning to my smoking habit. Please share your opinion

I am a smoker and I think you shouldn’t take it back up. You’ve done a excellent job in getting this far and you should stick to it I believe. Great work

@Frankie13 appreciate this advice, although I somewhat fear as I can no longer drink alcohol and I choose to not go back to smoking cigarettes… my craving for a emotional crutch in life; are the habit’s I may have likely to be any better or worse (which might sound some what crazy; as that choice is mine alone!)

@G488Z yes I think I can understand what you mean and how you’d feel tbh

It's both. Since you are feel distressed and your smoking habit wants to start again like "just one cigarette".

Distract yourself, doing chores or anything keeping you busy from thinking of smoking again.

Try to occupy yourself with some other habit so that you won't have time to get back to cigarettes again
