Thanks for starting this group!! I think we can all learn a lot from your experiences overcoming other addictions and that we definitely can tackle and overcome smoking together.

I have been clean and sober for 27 years from alcohol, meth, heroin, morphine, etc., but wow the ciggarette battle has been the most difficult....I told myself 27 years ago that 1)drinking was not an option, 2) drugs were not an option, and 3) suicide was not an option.....well I finally said the same thing to ciggarettes......SMOKING is not an option!!

i quit drinking and drugging 19 yrs and 5 months ago and started smoking. Now, I think about why I quit drinking---because the pain and suffering became too great and I was not wanting to pay the price any more.

Hey! We need posts regularly or perhaps I do!  I got clean, no marijuana, no cocaine since 2000. I was drinking 3 miller lites occasionally except I come to NA, Philly and I wanted since I was so broke to say no to beer.  I couldn't quit smoking forever!  I was trying to quit smoking since 2000!  It is too addictive. When I am lonely, I am an author, writer and poet, a very lonely profession, I smoke. My husband gets angry, somewhat whenever I smoke. I want to quit except I am so addicted.  I was on nicorette except my teeth are a mess from this nicorette. I only wish I could sue nicorette co. except I am a holy devout catholic as best I can do that. I want my true beauty returned! Can someone please help me qwuit smoking?  How about phone support?

Thanks! Thank you!
