I am very proud of you, CIBvet. You know, I have wondered why there weren’t treatment programs to get off of cigarettes. Since it is proven to be addicting and the person does go through a type of withdrawl... it makes sense. NA filled that gap for you. I am sure during meetings, you might have learned coping skills and how to react to situations (vs going to a cigarette). With many types of treatments today... the focus is on willpower and a pill/patch/piece of gum. I am going to tell my one friend who is struggling with it to think about NA. Thanks!
You can check the phonebook for a list of mtgs ... and one of course can also use Google to find the central office that can provide a national listing.
