  •  I guess you know the difference between a drunk and an alcoholic? A drunk doesn't have to go to the meetings.

  • Thanks, but I did it before Bill Clinton told us that nicotine was addictive.
    Back when nicotine was a poison, not a drug. :)

    I had a really bad habit of getting married. Someone broke that habit for me in the worst possible way. NEVER AGAIN!!! This post was edited by Zack at January 15, 2017 10:52 PM MST

  • Tough call. My daughter was hooked on all manner of drugs for a long time and then just quit. I dunno how and I don't think she knows. I think she just substituted other things.

    I stopped smoking 31 years ago.  Went for one hypnotherapy session with a group from work.  None of us wanted to be the first to go back.  A couple of them did, but the rest of us overcame the habit.

  • Groups work! As you said, nobody wants to be the first to break. Well done!

    I think it helped a lot.  It kept most of us honest. :)
