1984 I gave up a high paying, soul destroying government job and reserved a place at a residential group therapy resort. Hoped it would change my life but reasoned that if I couldn't even give up a 30-year heavy-smoking habit I'd be wasting my time; so I quit there & then. The therapy was great while it lasted; but back in 'the real world' the magic slowly dissipated. Oh, well .... I still don't smoke but can occasionally be found unconsciously patting my pockets looking for 'something'.
