Wow Lurkio - that's fansupertastic :j :beer:
:beer:
:j well done, what an inspiration you are.
Never mind banging on about warnings & pitfalls, I wasnt complaining, merely agreeing with you as I've got sucked back in before.
Waspeze - well done for coming back & 'fessing up. I know exactly how you feel as when I had my last blip I very nearly decided to just slip away from the thread unnoticed... Also if you remember way back, I was very moany & whiny & embarassingly self pitying & I particularly remember you saying that yes I had posted my self pitying whinge before but that this was what this thread was all about - supporting eachother through the fierce times & letting us have a moan when needed.
So, you slipped up - try again. Never give up giving up & I dont like the sound of this 'just getting summer out of the way' EXCUSE. so, get your little black & yellow stripy head in order & for goodness sake make tomorrow the last day you try to kill yourself with stinky sticks, please.
Come on now, you can do it, you can, you can, you can

I'd forgotten what you lot were like in here :A :A
I know what you mean Lula about waiting for summer to be over but I just feel i'm not strong enough to resist at the moment and need to wait a little while til my minds set again .. if that makes sense
Next time will definitely take champix again ... apart from a few weird moments it worked wonders for me! .. Do feel that maybe I should have waited a bit before I came off them so next time will hang fire and keep taking them til I look like a little blue pill:eek:
Cheers all...:hello:Save a little money each month and at the end of the year you’ll be surprised at how little you have.An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind0 -

Ooh, Lurkio you have been following the thread for ages, yep think that was tng & I did take notice - eventually.
Waspeze, ok I get what you're saying about finding a clear space to re begin, I had to do that too. By the way, only just noticed your sig :rotfl: love it & I quite agree. I have noted that you're on about 4 a day so make sure you dont allow that to creep up please or I'll be sending Doltage round to give you some homework :eek: . Think you're having too much fun with all the camping, beaching & drinking, I'm blatantly jealous but least I dont smell

I'm very conscious of how much i'm smoking at moment .. have limited myself to one 12.5g of backy a week... i used to smoke about 15 B&H a day before I gave up. Not good but not panic stations
It's really hard living down here by the sea so no reason to be jealous;).. you are right though i do smell again and am very aware of it
The more i'm talking about this the more i'm inclined to try again a bit sooner :eek::hello:Save a little money each month and at the end of the year you’ll be surprised at how little you have.An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind0 -
