I stayed away from my smoker friends for at least a month. I didnt go to restaurants where smoking was allowed or in your case it would probably be out to bars or clubs where they allow smoking. By eliminating the triggers it will make it easier. The biggest hurdle is to make up your mind to never smoke again. Once you have it in your mind you dont want to smoke anymore then it can be done. I was a small part of the CDC's Tips From Former Smokers campaign. There are alot of tips to help you stay successful. Never forget what you just went thru and what could happen. That will go a very long way in keeping your mind made up not to smoke.
