I finally did it...

The secret to not starting again seems to be "Not even once". Don't have one ever again, no matter how innocent it seems.

I've been told by alcoholics that tobacco is harder to kick. I've heard (because I don't know anyone) that tobacco is also harder to kick than heroin.

Never again is the key. Because alcohol lowers your inhibitions, social drinking around other smokers was the hardest thing for me. The secret is to just suck it up and avoid those crowds for a while.

Very true . you are the crowd you keep! I was MIA for about four months cause all my buddies chewed. No rodeo or bars in that time and got me on the right path. My buddies understood and didn't bust my balls to bad. It's tuff but it can be done!
