Giving up smoking.

So, I gave up smoking around a month ago.
I lapsed once, one morning when I was Fucking Stressed. I thought it would make me feel better. Instead it made me almost faint in a car ten minutes later, I attribute this funny turn directly to the cigarette. It tasted foul too. Fucking horrible.

Anyway, it's been a total of around three weeks since I last had a cigarette. And, while the past three weeks have been hard anyway, I haven't really *craved* as much as I'd expected. I did crave. I certainly did crave. I thought about smoking at random points, I fancied a fag in the middle of a school day once and automatically wished I could spark up then and there... then I realised how absurd my thoughts had been, and kicked myself for being a sad nicotine junkie. I've also been a ratty bitch for the past few weeks.

But, I've even imbibed alcohol around smokers, who got through a ton o cigarettes in a single night, and while I was tempted several times to crash a fag; I didn't.
As awful as it has been I think the worst has gone... maybe quitting around one of the most stressful times of my life was a good idea, got all that stress out of the way in one go (^u^)

Anyway. Yay me! Let's just hope I don't relapse, fingers crossed for me chums.

You can do it! I did that years ago and once you get over the intial few weeks, and if you are not constantly surrounded by people who smoke it is pretty easy. Still want one once in a blue moon, but a straw usually takes care of that.
