I quit smoking last June (June 8; should've joined GUS then!). I went to a hospital-sponsored smoking cessation class, which was excellent. I was committed for awhile, but screwed up thinking that I could 'sneak' the occasional cigarette. This might work if you know other smokers, or hang out where smokers do, but nobody I know smokes, and I don't hang out where other smokers do. So I had to buy packs of cigarettes in order to sneak the occasional cigarette. BAD IDEA. 'Sneaking' the occasional cigarette is a bad idea. Actually, smoking the occasional cigarette doesn't work.
Today I'm back at day one. No sneaking. No smoking.
Thanks for your support.
