Addiction is not just a bad habit. If you are truly addicted to something you can have a very rough time over coming it. Does one sacrifice necessities for a pack of cigs? $9 can buy a lot of things (especially if you go to a farmer's market). The answer is yes. And Illegal addictions can cost much more both in terms of money and health. I am not going to get personal but I have been addicted to Alcohol and it was very hard to quit. Am I proud of it? No! I cant explain the power of addiction but I can assure you that it is real. Always go the extra mile and support those who are making a effort to quit a addiction. Some little thing you say or do might just give them the strength to make it one more day. In my case I knew a guy that had quit so I thought I could too. I never told him or ever said anything to him but he helped me by his unknowing example. You may be helping someone and not even knowing it. I applaud Mr Johnny for starting this thread and putting his own ability to quit smoking on the line. :thumb :thumb :thumb

Addiction has power but not near as much mind power. We don't often give ourselves enough credit for having mind power. In our mind we can do anything and are not held back by limitations as usual! Most can imagine all kinds of things but is more difficult in the real world!

Congrats! Kicking the habit is a tough thing to do, but it's so good for you in the long run not only for your health, but for your wallet as well. Also, I lol'ed at Billy's "if you caught me last year it would've been a DUI"!
