Smoking Relapse Prevention
Joel's Chapter Introduction
The Law of Addiction
The lucky ones get hooked!
The Smokers Vow
"I'm not going to smoke today!"
"Was I addicted?"
Everyone is different?
Maybe I'm different?
Fixating on a cigarette
Never Take Another Puff!
"The only time I think of cigarettes is when I receive your stupid letters!"
Divine revelations
New Year's resolution
Negative support from others
"I feel 100% better since I quit"
"Why did I start smoking? Why did I quit?"
"New reactions to anger as an ex-smoker"
"If they ever cure lung cancer, I am going back to smoking!"
"You said it would get better!" "It's just as bad as the day I quit!"
Thoughts that seem worse than urges experienced the first few days
Come share your strength, come recognize your vulnerabilities
"Why are you so hard on the concept of cheating?"
"Just one little puff"
"I think I have decided to go back to smoking"
"I made a conscious decision to smoke"
"I know I will quit again"
"Things were just so bad at work I had to take a cigarette!"
"I went back to smoking while in the hospital with pneumonia!"
"Help, I've relapsed!" - a plea for help or a cry for attention?
