Drinking Alcohol and Your Quit

There once was a man who quit smoking

Who thought  people on Ex were just joking

He decided to drink

His glass he did clink

Now taking a drag and he's choking

(OK, OK - I know this is a stretch!!!)

but

the message is the same:

It's a bad idea to drink alcohol when you are early in your quit, and a good one to limit yourself further on.  It clouds your judgment and you may start to think just one would be OK.  It won't be - not ever!

Happy New Year!

I smoked until a vascular surgeon informed me of the damage I had done to myself by doing so. I quit 11 years ago, and I can swim laps virtually FOREVER now, walk most other days 40 minutes to an hour and a half. What a difference quitting has made in my life! I strive to help others find this wonderful freedom from addiction, too.
