And it came on so fast. I was so shock, at first. But no excuses really. I just need to set the clock to one tomorrow.

My take on it after reading the responses it that medically it does matter. I'm happy to say that I don't smoke to, but medically I won't be out of the woods for about 15 years. From what I know about addiction-oriented 12 step programs, once an alcoholic or addict, always one. The junkie never dies. Just get quieter when it gets ignored enough times, but we always have to be on the look out for it.

It's been called to my attention that I don't seem to think of myself as a nonsmoker. I think that is right. I think of myself as an ex-smoker, maybe because my smoking memories are still very clear. At what point and why did you start thinking of yourself as a nonsmoker?

My freindship ended with the person I've talked about a few times. I knew it would have to end and mistakenly thought I would be relieved when it did. I feel so sad. A little confused, too. She had been like a mother to me, then just turned on me for some reason I don't understand and was not going to get out of her. I told her that I had decided that if the reason was organic, I could deal with it ( I wouldn't take it personally) but if was not I could not put up with the meanness and moodswings. Of course, she tried to put it off on me, although she couldn't point out anything I had done. The center on aging told me to not ask, but take her for an alzheimer evaluation, but she belongs to an HMO that doesn't even have an alzheimer's clinic. So I couldn't be sneaky about it like they suggested. No one voluntarily goes, because they don't think anything is wrong with them. I feel like I allowed her to sabotage this quit from the beginning, because my problems with her began about 48 days ago. At first, I didn't recognize how bad this was going to get, but late last week, it got really bad and I started clawing it. Then I made up my mind about what needed too be done, and she was out of town, so I feel a little bit better. Then I decided I had to say something, because it was so stressful that I could not let it go on for a few more weeks and play games with her. I don't understand how things turned so fast. She was so good to me. Then she belittled and attacked everything I wanted or accomplished, even things that she had supported before. I was so mad at first that I don't think I saw the hurt.
