I just stopped smoking 3 days ago cold turkey. Im doing really good. Well everybody from work is going to the bar after work and I really want to go. But you know when you drink you smoke twice or even triple the ciggarettes because they just go together. Is it possible to go and have a good time after only 3 days of quitting and not smoke?

Easeir said than done. Just don't over think it. Focus on something else rather than your smoking. You have to test yourself anyways. If you feel you are strong enough, by all means go. If you truly feel it would be too hard for you, no sense subjecting yourself to that. Remember how hard its been these last few days. You're on the right track. Avoid creating complications for your road to recovery.
Many situaitons are out of our control. Your dilemna right now is absolutely preventable.
Best regards.

I have tried and failed many times to quit smoking...sigh. congrats for your 3 days of being smoke free! I think I would wait a little bit longer to test the water on the will power thing though. Wait until you are no longer thinking about the fact that you have quit smoking. Good luck!!!

No,it's not. Three days isn't nearly long enough. Go home and chew some gum tonight,take the weekend off to suffer through
the remaining psychological withdrawal pangs. Or just tell your
friends not to give you any smokes if you do go out-although
you'll suffer, probably break down and have one at some point.
You need more time.

Don't go to the bar at all. All the second hand smoke is worst than you smoking. I think its GREAT that you have quit. Don't risk it on a whim. I will pray for you for help and guidance. Ask God to give you the strenght he will. I have been quit for 8yrs. only beacause God helped me. Good luck and God bless you.

Three days isn't long enough. Give yourself a couple of weeks before testing your willpower like that.

Probably not, but I've never been a smoker or a drinker.

I don't think it's possible until you have gotten over the psychological addiction.
