My mom said I could smoke when I hit 6'. That happened at 14. Some 40 years later I bought a new p/u with velour interior and I didn't want to stink it up so I quit smoking and went to chewing....gave the ID, EGO, SUPER EGO or whatever the driver to smoke, an alternative rather than just abrupt halt to nicotine and a habit......which makes quitting more difficult....your gum chewing is just that for your system.
Levi Garret was my love and that transition worked. Once the lungs cleared out and you could think about something besides them, weaning off the levi was much easier......just set it up on a time schedule telling yourself it could have it's poison, just had to wait till......0'clock.
That ended after a year or two. Haven't looked back and that's been over 30 years ago.
Alcohol? Was part of my life ever since a late teen. Went to the doctor Feb. 16, 2015 and had blood work done. Doc said my Blood Sugar was 136. Said Type II Diabetes starts at 130. My family has a history of Diabetes.....no way did I want to be part of that. In the bottom of my shop refrigerator I had a brand new, unopened 30 pack of Bush Light cans..........it's still there, unopened and my BS is back to normal without any special eating and no pills.
The trick here is that I didn't deprive my body of my beer. "I chose" to leave it alone and my body knew that if it caved in there was a life preserver in the frige, nice and handy if needed......that worked...an alternative solution, not an abrupt cut off. Haven't touched a drop since and don't even think about it. Like some other things I can think of, once you get away from it and look back, it's not what it's cracked up to be!
Mind over matter. Just gotta decide to do it and do it.
