I had to join AA and work the steps, and do the things that they suggested that I do. And yes it worked for me. 6 months ago I wanted to stop smoking so I went to NicA which is a 12 step program for stop smoking. I once again got a sponsor and worked the steps. Today I am smoke free for 7 months. I really never thought it possible for me to quit either of the addictions, but once I started to do the work that was required of me I found out that I could have a wonderful life. A life that I never thought I would have. If you truly want to quit look into the 12 step groups. Pat
