There must be something better to do than that. And now that you are quit, it is an even worse idea. Anyway, would you really like to redo those 3 days again?? So, how's the weather? Maybe a nice walk to see how well you are breathing :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/15/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 37 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 936 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $305.25 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 2 [B]Hrs:[/B] 16 [B]Mins:[/B] 2 [B]Seconds:[/B] 41

Hey Bear. I get it totally, even if I am a bit younger than you and have not had as long to be addicted. I too am duel-addicted (although not to alcohol) and am just now at over a month into my quit, thinking about dropping my other addiction. I am just......scared. I have used it to replace anti-depressants for the last 6 years and am scared to stop now. But with the support around here I really think I might be able too. I posted about it once, but Big Brother removed it. LOL I know that I can kick the tobacco thing, so maybe that's next. I just need the help with that, the same as I get with this addiction. And I don't know where to turn. I understand your frustration, but I look up to you too. I have had a few addicts in my life, and have never [i]seen[/i] one come clean. Thank you for that. You are showing me that it is possible. I am watching your posts. Please stay with us. And way to go on 4 days clean!

What if we are simply moving from one dependency to another? I don't know. Your right, anyway. I know that the help is out there, and right in here :) Anyway, addiction sucks and I am glad that you are doing so well fighting yours.

Very true...I am movign from the addictive drug to anti depressants. So I guess it's OK to be dependant as long as it is a precribed dependancy. Anyway, I'm gonna do it. And I'm NOT gonna smoke. And I am really happy to see you are not smoking. Way to go!!
