I hope they are okay. I don't believe in therapy for addictive behavior. I believe in nuturence and as much support as you can get especially from people with addictive behavior.it took an explosion and almost two weeks in the hospital to stop my smoking. after 18 years I started again and then went cold turkey because I couldn't afford it. a former friend got neuropathy and finally stopped and headed aa meeting where she met a lot of interesting people. after my father got rid of a lot of stress in his sixties he stopped.
