Hi Pink - interesting question. Although I have never had to tackle an alcohol addiction, I have known people who did. Those who were successful quit ONE DAY AT A TIME. I don't think that I would have gone past day one if I didn't adopt this philosophy. Now, I have started to envision myself (in a positive way) at activities as a non-smoker. I still cope one day at a time, but I also look forward to a future where smoking isn't part of my life (or my thoughts) However, I believe that my addiction is just as strong as an alcoholics. I know that I will never be able to smoke again (not even one) or the cycle will just start back again. I will be proud when the day comes when I can say that I am a non-smoker but I hope that I never forget how powerful this addiction is. My Dad quit over 40 years ago. It's been many many years since he has ever had a desire to smoke. However, he says that, even now, he would never try even one cigarette because he knows how easy it would be to start again.

I like to think of myself as a non smoker, but I don't know. I'm not smoking that's for sure, but I don't know if I have enough time under my belt to actually call myself a non smoker. One day. A nicotine addiction is a tough one to beat(right up there with heroine and cocaine so they say), and so I am always just one puff away from being a smoker again. I don't think that ever goes away. It does remind me of alcoholism, its the same concept. But I will always remember N.O.P.E.

interesting question. For me I would consider myself a person who does not smoke, not an x-smoker, or I use to smoke but just a person who does not smoke. For me I feel that when a person holds on to a lable then they become that. Carolyn wise wrote a book titled "Why people don't heal" She explains that when we hold on to our additiction or illness we never really heal from it it becomes who we are, when deep down we are really so much more then that. This is my way of thought and I am sure everyone has there own, people have to choose what works best for them, I am all for that one. As science of mind puts it change your thinking change your life.

Oh---I DO agree!!! If you take someone (an older, reasonable adult) who has never smoked and they smoke a cigarette they will struggle through the whole process and are likely to never do it again. Give one to an ex-smoker who has been quit for years and make them smoke it and they will hound you for another almost immediately. IT IS AN ADDICTION. As with alcohol and drugs...the addict will always want more.....and more.....and more.....There is no such thing as 'just one'. Total abstinance/total submission. My thoughts, anyway!

If you want to think of yourself as a nonsmoker Jan, I say go for it. What we tell ourselves, is the first step in making it come true. At least that is my take on it. Everyone is possibly just a puff away from becoming an addict, even non smokers. Just my take. Can you tell I believe in positive affirmations? ;p LOL!

I think there should be a rehab for smokers. I felt the same way when I quit smoking ... in fact I would probably have checked myself into one for 3 weeks if smoker rehabs were available! LOL! As far as the question goes ... I agree with Sterk's assessment. Here is how I view myself: I do not smoke; nor do I have an uncontrollable want for nicotine. Therefore I am not an addict or a smoker. I am a non smoker. I am not an 'x' anything. 'X' refers to our past. I live in the present. I don't deny my past, but I don't need to be constantly pulled back into it either ... I am too busy making a better past. ;) Fondly, Free [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/12/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 134 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 4,041 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $536 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 11 [B]Hrs:[/B] 8 [B]Mins:[/B] 1 [B]Seconds:[/B] 3

You are right, Pink, it is such a terrible addiction and it can kill you. Congrats on your decision to quit and 13 days.This is the best thing you can do for yourself and your family. It is doable and it does get easier. Stay close and post often. I couldn't have done it without the great people here at the SSC.

You've touched on a topic that I've often wondered (and fumed) about: that smoking is not recognized as the deadly drug addiction it really is. But there's too much money tied up in it, so nothing really changes. As far as what to call yourself, it's whatever works for you. Personally, I am an ex-smoker because I used to smoke, but no longer do. Just like I'm ex-military and ex-a lot of things I used to be. I don't consider myself a recovering smoker because I no longer battle the addiction anymore; I am recovered. Congratulations on 13 smoke-free days, Pinktexas. Two weeks tomorrow! How super is that? :) Keep up the good quit.
