I work in an alcohol/drug rehab and many staff who are in recovery have said that quitting smoking was the hardest thing they ever did...worse than giving up any other addiction. Believe it or not, the psychological factor would be harder for me than the actual nicotine craving. I can't smoke anywhwere at work (have to leave the property) and have gone an entire day without smoking without going bonkers. Anyone who smokes knows it's all about...the cigarette when you pick up the phone, sit down at the computer, after a meal, with a cup of coffee, when you get in the car, etc. When my mom was 70 she decided that was it, she put down her cigarettes and never picked one up again. As you said, when you're ready, and only then, will it work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 I am for anything that will help induce people to quit smoking and will keep young kids from starting. I have lost both parents, aunts and uncles to tobacco and have a 40 year old son-in-law who has had bladder cancer due to smoking......I hate cigarettes..........period and forever. Nancy C.
