March 3, 20188 yr Yes, choosing to quit is way better than HAVING to quit. Do it on your terms! Better rate for success too
March 3, 20188 yr Or, you can get locked up. I don’t think you can smoke in county lockup. Kidding, not recommended.
March 3, 20188 yr I “borrowed” this from a friend: “It really helped me to change the story I told myself about smoking. I'm an adult, I CAN smoke. I CAN go pick up a pack and start smoking again anytime I like. I'm not some child that's been given a list of rules and grounded from my toys. The truth is I CHOOSE not to smoke today. I DON'T WANT TO SMOKE.”
March 3, 20188 yr Exactly!! Human nature, tell someone they CANT and it presents a challenge. I can, I just don’t want to.
March 3, 20188 yr It's probably not going to have a good ending if we dont make the choice to quit, Life ...

Of course you can. But then, why are you here? Choosing not to is key. Otherwise you are just abstaining.
