Yep to both. The smoking was just a health issue - I coughed up some bloody mucus and it scared me so much I stopped right away. The drinking was a conscious issue. After my best friend was murdered in 2001, I realized that it would be VERY easy to crawl into a bottle and never come out, so I didn't touch a single drop for more than six months. To date, I've been intoxicated twice since then.

Gave up smoking cold turkey.
Came back from a Canada fishing trip on a Saturday, broke up with troublesome girlfriend on Sunday, and had no desire to smoke on Monday over 3 years ago.
I honestly believe the stress brought on by her was the reason for my 2 pack a day habit

I tried smoking some cold turkey once but it;s hard to get it to burn evenly. If I gave up drinking my brain would go into spasm and kill my body.
