Hey Christine, Thanks for you concern and support, and for sharing your story with me. It's nice knowing people like you care  . I know what you mean, that even if people notice something is wrong, they do not know what to do. Anyway, I still seem to be doing well, but I will definitely keep you posted. It is inspiration in itself that other people want to know how I am progressing. Thanks so much! |

Ari- Don't give up on yourself!!! You have done so well- you are only human- therefore guaranteed to make a mistake every now and then... I know you are mad, frustrated and don't feel too hopeful- we have all been there too many times. PICKING SUCKS. Please be proud of your success and remember you can do that again too. I read somewhere that the more times you try to quit smoking the more likely you are to be successful at quitting- I think picking probably works the same way- it takes so many practice runs and is so hard it feels impossible. Please forgive yourself for slipping and let it go- make it a speed bump instead of a roadblock! Hopefully I haven't annoyed you by my overly positive possibly slightly unrealistic advice- or my cheesy analogys... I just want you to feel better quick and be happy! Your progress has been encouraging- thanks for that. I'll say prayers for you.  |

thanks reformedpicker..no, you are not cheesy or anything like that. Your optimism is very helpful, especially when no one at my house understands what I am going through. I am still doing badly, but I am off to try again. Like you said, this period is a speed bump, but I can ride over it. Thanks for your kindness  ...it is what I need. |

no tolerance for ZT as of now...gosh i cannot help it i really cant. i try so hard but i can't resist that urge when i see something "wrong" and even though i know "fixing" it will make it worse, it doesn't stop me. i need to stop though......
