Open Smoking Addiction & Recovery
I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease in July '06. I recently had bowel resection surgery and knew I had to quit smoking. I have been pretty successful since my surgery on 5/12/08 but have smoked on 4 occasions. I usually don't smoke when I am home anymore but just went out and bought a pack and smoked one cigarette. Now I am so disappointed in myself but yet I feel better after smoking. That nagging feeling is gone. HELP! I can't start smoking again.
Treatments
- Cold Turkey Working / Worked
- I was in the hospital after surgery and had no choice but to quit.
- Willpower Working / Worked
- I have been pretty good until lately.
