Understanding the Causes of Slips and how to Prevent them
A dear friend of mine and I were conversing on the topic of slipping and why it happens to those that appear to have solid quits; those in the six month or better range. The cause, an event happens that goes beyond their threshold or tolerance for dealing with its emotional outcome.
But why reach for the smoke?
They have yet to solidify the mental image that smoking is not an option. The goal, when a crisis does occur, the thought of smoking does not enter your mind. Recite your reasons for quiting and review your distraction tool kit.
