Good point, the three forced attempts where basically "Smokes or me" ultimatums. Since we sorted a lot of our relationship issues out, she doesnt push, just occasionally points out when I start smoking heavily again.
insofar as alcohol, I used to be a compulsive binge drinker, the only way i would leave a pub was either broke or unconcious... I went through counselling which dealt more with the stress I was under at the time (In the military at 16 was a big part) and now I only touch the occasional drop. I still dont trust myself to more than one drink, and in some cases I find social events much more entertaining without the beer goggles anyways.
So i take you you are a drug & alcohol counsellor...? I am hoping to study to be a Youth Worker next year and I was thinking of taking bonus units in dealing with dependency's
