24 years ago I used product called Cigarrest to stop smoking. It has worked exactly as the ads said. It was a 7 day program. I figured once I drank a cold beer, I would slip. But that challenge got busted so I quit drinking also.
Just like they say in AA, stay away from old playmates and old playgrounds. Beer and coffee were my worst triggers.
I eventually stopped drinking altogether. I played with some bad stuff over the years and never got addicted but nicotine has proved the hardest mountain for me to climb, though not for lack of effort.
I totally agree about the beer. I never understood how an ex smoker could pound back brews and resist lighting up, but addiction is a tricky thing with no hard and fast rules.
I did know a guy however that only smoked when he drank.
