Addictions suck----started off day with a bad start
Addictions Suck Need to isolate myself from the smoking world.
Date: 1/13/2006 7:27:51 AM ( 18 y ) ... viewed 5090 times I am not going to give up. Today, there were cigarettes right on my kitchen table when I got up, left by a friend who stayed over last night. I had one. DAMN! Geez, I am really hooked. I KNOW that all it does is relieve the craving, which is caused by the nicotine and all the other chemicals in cigarettes. I think I am going to have to stay away from all my smoker friends until I've developed the mindset that I am a "non-smoker" which I think comes from being without until the nicotine leaves my body. Now I have screwed up this morning, but that doesn't mean that I am giving up. WHY IS THIS SO HARD? I did it before, I can do it again. Funny, in every other way, I'm healthy. I work out regularly, a few times per week, eat sensibly, don't drink, blah, blah, blah. And yet, here I am, sucking on leaves rolled up in paper because I am an addict, plain and simple. There is only one way, cold turkey. Wake up in my house with no one there, no cigarettes around, and then immediately go out for a long walk, to raise my metabolism, breathe in fresh air, and come back knowing that I am off to a good start. Maybe I should just take it one hour at a time, not one day!!! This sucks. I hate that I have this addiction. I have successfully started the Master Cleanse today, and hope to complete this in 10 days. I've never done that before, gone on a Cleanse. Seems like a good idea....
Thanks for the encouragement ausjulie, hope your clean out is going good. I need all the help I can get...
