I see the same thing in my group the "Jokers" who are October 2005 quiters. We started with around 62 and now that the time has come for us to be hitting the beach, well there are about 7 of us getting there. Yes celebration is due us 7 survivors.
There is nothing we could have done to stop the other 55 from returning to smoking, especially in an on-line support group. I�ve said all along that to quit smoking it takes sheer determination and honesty, honesty with yourself that you indeed are going to stop smoking.
