If so, please help me. Im on my 2nd week of not smoking. I really dont crave anymore, but when I went out and drank before I quit I would smoke like crazy. Do you think I will have a problem going out this friday since I quit just 2 weeks ago? I want to go out and drink a little bit, and I think I should kinda treat myself since I did a really good thing by quiting and acually sticking TO IT!. Will that craving when you drink go away eventually? I dont wanna mess everything up. :(
AFTER 2 WEEKS?? I really think I deserve a drink or two if I want, you know what I meen?

I quit and still went out to the bar and drank. I know I probably looked a little odd but I would just hold a cigarette and not light it. Just so I felt like I fit in with everyone else that was smoking. It is great that you are quitting!!!! Us previous smokers are usually pretty vocal about this issue. Now a lot of places do not even allow you to smoke anyways.

I stopped smoking and continued to socialise. It is a lot easier today when so many bars and nightclubs are becoming smoke free. If you have gone this long, you are over the worst. Just be determined. Tell your friends you are now not smoking and ask for their assistance by not blowing smoke at you.
The worst times for me were not when having a drink but when having coffee in the morning, long distance driving and using the computer. Anyway I stuck to it and am now four years without a cigarette. I won't smoke again but I know that it would be very easy to do.

FWIW
I quit a 5 pack a day habit after 55 + years of smoking
I cut down while still having a few drinks a day, I can drink without reaching for a smoke
I know it can be done

ive been quit for two months, and the cravings are still there. if you do go out drinking friday, i recommend doing so with people who will hold you responsible for your actions and not let you off the hook if you want to smoke. a strong support system is SO important if you are going to stick to it. go out, but STAY CONSCIOUS of your ultimate goal!
