Hey Auntie, I too am a friend of Bill W & Dr Bob's 12 steps. Over 15 years now. Funny how in retrospect, this tobacco addiction break seems worse! I don't believe it is though, just my mind playing games & being overly dramatic about my withdrawel. Keep strong, those coming in behind you need inspiration & 'smoke sponsors'!

Day 9 it's supposed to be easier right? I have had more urges to smoke today than I have for several days, I don't know if it's the let down of my daughter going back home yesterday or just those damn nicodemons trying to break me. I'm staying strong, using the tools I have learned and a few from AA just for good measure. Yes, I am an alcoholic and a nicotine addict. I have been sober for 2 years 4 months and 15 days.One day at a time, and I'm not smoking the same way. One day at a time, sometimes 1 minute at a time. I know both of my addictions want me dead! and will try anything to get me back,so I must stay strong. Just getting this out makes me feel stronger and more able to cope. Thanks for letting me vent.
Love, Auntie
