I have been sober for 9 months now and ready to quit smoking. People told me not to tackle quit drinking and smoking all at once so now it time. Any advice on quiting without falling off the wagon on both??

My therapist did not recommend for me to quit smoking while being fresh into my sobriety. In my option, on you know if you can handle it. I'm a current smoker and would like to quit eventually. I hope you do find a way successful way to quit. Congratulations on your sobriety. (:
It’s hard to quit smoking. I know because I’ve done it a dozen times.
Luckily, you have been sober for 9 months… because so often they kind of go hand in hand .
I still smoke, but would like to quit again as well.
I found changing cigarette brands helped. I smoke menthols,and switching to non menthols really reduced my cigarette smoking.
Look at how much you spend on cigarettes. It’s shocking.
I never smoke in the house or car.
Weather… rain, cold, heat… all can stop you from smoking.
I never found nicotine gum to help.
It’s the entire process of smoking that we enjoy.
I found doing crafts, calling an ex smoker, eating peanuts helped.
Good luck
Quit things in the order they kill you.
I didn’t quit until I had a few years. There is no rush. When you are ready though you will know
I quit smoking cigarettes and picked up vaping. I have been successful in quitting everything but this. Such an awful expensive habit. I’ve heard Chantax is helpful
