Joe..I feel compelled to respond to this post. As you could see from my posts,I am one of those people who has been struggling with my quit. Have I been fixating on it? Yes. Do I need professoional help? Maybe.. It's not as black and white as you may think. I'll give you a bit of my history and see if you still think that I should feel as you do.. I became addicted to cigarettes at the age of 12, It was soon followed by marijuana,alcohol...all the way to cocaine by the time I was 19. I came from a so called disfunctional household and I was a very angry child, I lacked in self worth and confidance. I married at 16, had my first child and was divorced at the age of 19. I placed my daughter with my mother during the height of my addiction while I attenmpted to get help. After many failed attempts at getting "clean",and falling into an abusive relationship for 7 years, I became suicidal. Did I mention that I was also bulimic? I went to A psychiatrist who told me that suicide wasn't illegal as one cannot charge a dead person and he couldn't help me.I tried drug rehabs but was told that they could not accommodate me as I was actively suicidal. I tried mental institutions but was told they couldn't help me because I was a drug addict. I tried an eating disorder clinic (before a panel of experts) but was told that my case was too complicated since I was suicidal and using drugs. I saw numerous counsellers, and spent time in detox centers. I finally received help from a church and came to believe that there is a God. To make a long story short...I have been free from cocaine for 9 years, I had 2 more children,I remarried my Ex- husband and took in his 3 young children. I am now working on getting rid of this final addiction..That's right nicotine. I no longer beat myself up for all the mistakes I've made but I do sometimes dwell on where I could be had addiction not taken over my life. I have been taking zoloft for 10 years as I do believe that I have been self medicating to cover up a life long depression and I also think that I suffer from ADD. However,Theres not a doctor around who would treat me for this as it involves an addictive drug (ritalin). As for counselling, the psychologists and Doctors around here ( I now live in a small town(my hometown))ag

Joe: Awesome post as always. I know exactly what you are talking about. I have a friend who recently went back to smoking after an extended period of time. She convinced herself that not smoking was hurting her more than smoking because of her weight gain, attitude etc... so she therefore tried to justify going back instead of seeking some help. This is so sad but I know if happens a lot. I think your post will be great reading for a lot of new and old quitters alike. You are a wise man and I am so glad you are here !!
