I quit 13 days ago but 7 days in went out to a bar w/ friends who smoke. I broke down and had two, haven't had any since. I had all these plans in place that worked at first but after so many drinks and being in the presence of smoke, I honestly didn't care. I couldn't stop myself and basically forced my friends to give me a cigarette.
I was wondering if it's possible to socially smoke on occasion and not pick back up again. I don't really WANT to, but my resolve dissipates w/ alcohol and at this point I'm not considering giving up drinks w/ friends. I'm new at this still, so any advice would be great! Also, I've been chewing nicotine gum, so when I smoked it's not like I was re-introducing nicotine to my system. Anyone been OFF nicotine replacement therapy and tried smoking socially? My last intention is to start again, so if it's not possible or extremely hard, don't be afraid to burst my bubble! I need to hear it! Thanks!
