| | So i've decided to quit smoking recently. My reasons? Ive been fighting a respiratory infection and I figured lets stop. And i figured lets stop for the long hall. So I had the patch and the gum lying around and started.
The patch works pretty great, except for the oral fixation and the feeling you get in your lungs.
I started this blog to help me vent and write about my daily experiences in general. So I figure right now, I'm quitting smoking so I might as well write about it.
I've been smoking for almost 10 years now, and I've tried to quit but never seroiusly. I enjoyed it too much. I associate smoking with so many enjoyable things! Drinking, Eating, Poo-ing, Driving, Golfing. Its been really hard. I've had to avoid my hometown because all my friends who live there smoke and so does my dad!
I'm really looking at this for the long term. I've even considered hypnosis and actual prescription medication. I know I'm quite susceptible to hypnosis since I was hypnotized twice at social banquets when i was in college. And the pill?, the pill scares me because of the side effects.
Whoever reads this - I would really appreciate your support - nothing motivates me more than when my friends are depending on me.
I have no idea whether this will last. I really hope it does. I know i'm supposed to say "YES IT WILL! I CAN DO THIS" but overcoming addiction has been a painful process so far, and I kno it will only get worse.
Its really frightening how addicted I am to cigarrettes. Physically AND Psychologically!!
Wish me luck. |
