Just like with my ex, I found I needed it to cope and feel normal -- even though I hadn't had it in so long.
I was always so surprised that I was able to quit at the drop of a hat when I found out I was pregnant, but went right back to it a few months after DD was born & I was no longer breastfeeding. I didn't quit for good until she was 18 months.
RAH switched to that vapor/nicotine pipe about a year ago & while he is OK with it, he always goes back to the real thing eventually. I like the vapes because I like the blueberry, blackberry, orange, etc scents.
