last night i went out for a drink with my friends and for some reason was overcome with feelings of wanting to smoke (bearing in mind i have not smoked for almost 7 months) so i gave in and had one cigarette, at the time i felt dirty and so so sick. i came home and was sick. < but that may have been due to the alcohol. Anyway, i just feel bad to all the people who helped support me whilst i was giving up, i KNOW that i am not going to smoke again, its not worth it, its just a blip. But i feel incredibly guilty and disappointed in myself. how can i overcome it.?

i suggest occupying yourself with another activity for a while to get your mind of things....go for a jog or read a book..anything to get your mind off it will help

tut tut tut, after all that willpower you displayed in giving up, doesn't it all feel a bit cheap now putting it all to waste and smoking one drunken night? I think you should go and talk to the friends who you went out with that night and tell them about what happened and how you feel. This way they would know that when you go out in future, you might get these "urges" and they can help you.

I wouldn't worry, if anyone says anything just be honest. Say I had one but I regret it & I'm not gonna start again. People aren't gonna come down heavily on you for 1 slip up
