There are plenty of reasons to avoid drinking too much—and staying in control makes it easier to quit smoking.
Knowing your limits is key. Some people are good with just one drink, others enjoy a couple when out with friends.
The main thing? Don't let alcohol trigger a cigarette craving or break your smoke-free streak.
Stick to your boundaries!
Knowing when enough is enough can make a big difference on your quit journey. It helps you stay in control, avoid drinking too much, and keep smoking out of the picture.
You'll never regret cutting back on alcohol—whether for a short time or longer—if it helps you quit smoking for good!
If you can’t stick to a limit, just quit!
Everyone struggles with something.
For some, controlling alcohol intake is an issue. Those that feel they might have a problem, support groups such as Alcoholics Anonymous, can help in overcoming liquor addiction.
The organization provides a 12-step program that uses action, self-reflection, and community accountability to assist in an individual’s sobriety journey.
