Tips for quitting smoking!
in Health ·
I haven't touched a cigarette in 10 months now. I smoked for 14 years straight. Back when I was still at it, I was constantly thinking about how to quit—I’d see a chiropractor, lose various bets, even throw my packs and lighters out of my car window in these big, dramatic gestures... but nothing ever stuck. It wasn't until everything hit the fan personally, putting my whole character to the test, that I finally decided to stop. The revolt within me felt even stronger when I told my friends I was quitting. Everyone reached out, wanting to place bets, acting like they knew I'd fail. I didn't take any bets, unfortunately; I probably would have won. I still think about cigarettes, though. I suppose I'll be dealing with those cravings for the rest of my life. For now, though, the pride feels stronger than the pull of morning black coffee and that first smoke. I really hope it stays that way.
