    I know I‘Ve related it before but....after smoking off and on (mostly on) for 40+ years and failing to quit for any length of time, I simply read a book on quitting smoking (while smoking as I was reading). As soon as I was done reading, I was done smoking. Literally the easiest thing I’ve ever done. It’s all psychological and nothing more...

    alcohol would get me back everytime...I'd quit for half a year...drink scotch and throw darts, have a cigar and be right back on them....it was giving booze up that was easy for me and then smoking became easy as well....I think they're connected

    In some states that would be against the law....Tennessee may be an exception or was it West Virginia? Don't google your dog loves you though....

    Haven't smoked a cigarette in 561 days. Best change I've made in my life since ditching my ex-girlfriends.

    As far as the booze goes, that's a whole different ballgame.

    To my Irish forefathers there's no concept of alcoholic so me going sober is sort of like taking vows of celibacy and joining the priesthood...now I'm the world's designated driver..

    Once I'm confident to go out in public again I will be calling you for a ride home when I'm too intoxicated.

    I tapered off.
    I increased my smoking gradually from one cigarette to about a pack a day over the course of a year. That means I smoked an average of half a pack a day for one year. It was then that I said to myself "What are you doing? This is stupid." and I quit.

    Less police resources, at any rate. Money, instead, going to socially-driven channels, I suppose.
