We on the site hear stories all the time about quits lost to alcohol consumption. It makes sense that it is common, since alcohol can inhibit the control necessary for abstinence and support the notion that "just one will be OK."
Evidence to the contrary:
"I'm one of the folks here that have lost a perfectly beautiful quit thinking that oh just one would be okay after sucking back one too many drinks."
"Oh, woah is me having a drink and then saying....hey give me one of those ......."
"Did you hear about the dummy who went to a bar and bragged they quit smoking ? Then after a few drinks bummed a smoke and said they could have just one...Hah! Next thing they were back to smoking...and lost that beautiful quit...Oh yeah that was ME...Lesson Learned.."
PLEASE learn from others' experiences. A quit is a terrible thing to lose.
