Do We Have A Choice?

Mike.n.Atlanta
0 15 35

If we tell people they had no choice when they smoked because this is an addiction have we done them any favors? (It’s not your fault, you had no choice you’re an addict) Or have we removed all responsibility from the smokers shoulder? Have we given them another excuse for relapse?

Would love some opinions on this, I have more to add.

Keep on keepin on,

I began this quit journey on October 1, 2004. I'm not doing it for my wife or children nor in memory of the many family members or friends I have lost due to this addiction. I'm doing it for Mike.
