    The it’s-all-connected detox planner

    Bad habits holding you back? Find your biggest vice and follow the dots to see how tips for tackling one negative trait can help you handle another.

    By Nina Christensen, Tina Riopel and Nicole Tourtelot


      SMOKING  |  WORKAHOLISM  |  BINGE DRINKING  |  CITY ADDICTION  |  BAD EATING HABITS  |  NEGATIVE ENERGY  |  BAD SEX  |  GOSSIP ADDICTION  |  HARD DRUGS  |  HARMFUL CHEMICALS  |  CLUTTER



    If your binges happen every night, you are looking at a real live addiction. Consider asking your doctor about the prescription drug naltrexone. It could help you ditch those mojitos for good.

    Take a “How Much Is Too Much?” test at alcoholscreening.org. And you can always drop by an AA meeting and sit in the back to see what they’re like (nyintergroup.org). Not into the whole higher-power thing? Try Agnostic AA. agnosticaanyc.org

    Get your drinking buddies together and join a weekend sports league. You’ll all cut down after a few hangover losses. zogsports.org




    If the “Truth” commercials don’t get to you, go see the effects of smoking on a real human lung (and drinking on a liver) at the “Bodies” exhibition. South St Seaport, Front St at Fulton St (646-837- 0300)

    Tell everybody you’ve given up smoking or drinking. After seeing how proud they are of you, it will be much harder to let them down.



    Carry around your least- favorite picture of yourself eating, smoking or making that drunk-photo face. You know which face we’re talking about. And no, it’s not cute.
