Dee Member Registered: 06/27/05 Posts: 2561 Loc: Alabama	I know what you mean about being in smoke-free areas. I hate going into a store behind a smoker....I never realized how bad that stuff smelled until I quit...eeeegads, it's horrible. We go to a small-town cafe and believe it or not there's still a smoking section...but, there's not that many booths...when the smokers are in there I try to avoid the place despite how good the food is. _________________________ Dee "They will be able to say that she stood in the storm and when the wind did not blow her away....and surely it has not.....she adjusted her sails" - Elizabeth Edwards

meredithbead The Divine Ms M Registered: 07/07/03 Posts: 4894 Loc: Orange County, California	I'm so glad most indoor places in California have been smoke-free for at least 10 years. It's nice to come home and not have to immediately put my clothing in a plastic bag to keep it from reeking through the rest of the house. _________________________ My handcrafted jewelry: limited edition designs more jewelry, plus bead supplies Poet and essayist

Dianne Queen of Shoes Registered: 05/24/04 Posts: 6123 Loc: Arizona	In AZ, it depends on which county you live in. It's strange at their airport. At one terminal, you can still smoke in the restaurant/bar but the rest of the airport is smoke free. At the tribal casino here, it is all smoking except for a small non-smoking area for slots. I would think the smoke would still drift into that area. _________________________ If it doesn't feel good, don't do it twice. www.eadv.net Boomer Queen of Shoes

Danita Member Registered: 01/24/05 Posts: 1550 Loc: Colorado	My daughter is going to try hypno-therapy to stop smoking I've met a really wonderful woman who does this - it should be interesting. She actually guarantees it for lifetime. She is also going to work with me for weight-loss. danita Edited by Danita (01/13/07 05:24 PM) _________________________ Tell and preserve your stories: http://www.scrappingzilla.com My most recent story for my mom: http://www.heritagemakers.com/projectBro...tSponsor=384221

bonnierae Registered: 01/22/07 Posts: 27	Quote: Has anyone here ever smoked, for years then tried to quit using the over the counter or prescribed drugs? I'm having such a hard time with this but it's killing me. I can feel it sufficating the life out of me and it's all so unfair to my daughter too. A good friend of ours stopped smoking relatively easy using the prescription drug Zyban. His wife continued to smoke while he was quitting and he was still able to resist snitching any of hers. She then went on Zyban and quit as well. Might be worth speaking to your Dr about Good Luck and you can do it. Bonnie

#14016 - 01/23/07 02:51 PM Smoked 4, 25 years...Re: Smoking
jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Sugaree, I started smoking out behind the barn when I was a kid. I tried to quit 14 times. Finally, in 1984, I succeeded. As you can see I've been off them--March 4th, it'll be 23 years. But it took hypnosis to do it!!! One session, and I threw the cigs away and never restarted. Good luck. Keep trying. Don't ever stop trying to quit!!! Ciao for now, B.
