Hi Peppermint, Dont wanna make light of your slip but really enjoyed readin it, if ya know what i mean. Lets say, it sure was different. Back to your slip. i see it this way, you were doin really well at 40 days, just get back on your horse soldier, out of it all i admire your honesty. Go get the bad guys = The cigarettes. Good luck. AL
It is just amazing how our junkie minds think!! I slipped a few weekends ago and had the same experience....dizzy, tasted horrible. WHY...do, did I smoke!!!???
We do not want to go back to that???? Just move forward and remember that feeling of yuck, smell and just nasty...we will know better next time!!!

I FEEL SO BAD, I WAS WORKING A CAR ROBBERY AND I FOUND THE CAR AND SUSPECT. I COULDN'T GET A HOLD OF DISPATCH TO LET THEM KNOW SO I GOT SO OVERWHELMED I GOT A CIGARETTE FROM THE SUSPECT AFTER I CUFFED HIM. AFTER I SMOKED IT I WAS SO DIZZY. MY MOUTH TASTED LIKE CRAP AND I WAS VERY UPSET WITH MYSELF. I HAVEN'T HAD ANOTHER SMOKE AND QUITE HONESTLY I HOPE THAT WAS IT. I JUST HAD TO LET YOU KNOW AS I WAS FEELING PRETTY QUILTY.

Boy do I understand! :p
I always tell my co-workers you [i]know[/i] you are good when you can drive blue lights and siren, listen to the car radio, talk on the police radio, balance a cup of coffee and a cigarette, while putting on lipstick in the rearview mirror! ;p
BTW...SCC does have a repeat offender program and there are quite a few of us there! Jump back on........
HEY---a friend is God's way of proving He doesn't want us to walk alone.
There are a lot of good friends here. Do you ever wonder what people look like?
I used to talk to a vender on the phone on a regular basis at work. I used to think, 'God, he HAS to be a hotty! He's so nice and has such a sexy voice!' I met him last year and he was a DWEEB! HA! There is nothing wrong with Dweebs and Nerds...I am, after all, married to one. But aren't such thoughts INTERESTING??? :quest:

Doing great. Get yourself back up, shake yourself off and get up and ride.
New circumstance can call for new coping mechanisms. Keep going.
The trick to all of this is: N.O.P.E. Not One Puff Ever.
Thanks for letting us know how you are doing.
Phillip
P.S. Gonna, you are so funny. Lipstick in the rear view mirror. Hope you keep your hair curler at home. :) NOPE
