How I Ditched Smoking & Drinking—Together
I hit a point where I was just tired of feeling tired. My mornings started with a cough and ended with a drink, and I knew something had to give.
Here’s what helped me quit both at once:
✅ I wrote down every way smoking and drinking messed with my life—health, money, relationships. Kept that list where I’d see it daily.
✅ I tracked my triggers. If stress or certain people made me crave a smoke or drink, I made a note and tried to steer clear.
✅ I tossed out all the reminders—cigs, bottles, even my favorite lighter. Out of sight, out of mind.
✅ I swapped cravings for new habits. Walks, deep breaths, and calling a friend helped more than I expected.
It wasn’t easy, but every small win felt huge. Anyone else thinking about quitting both? What’s your biggest roadblock?
