I've been a cigarette smoker since 1973, that's 44 years
it's a bitch
withdrawal, anxiety, and mostly... addiction substitution
I guess this makes my 24th attempt to be smoke free
In the previous 23 attempts over the past 30 odd years, when I quit one thing, I'd do more of some other related self destructive behavior
This attempt is made during my 60th year above ground on this planet
nicotine patches help the most.. walking 6000 steps a day helps a LOT as well
use of an ecig seems to be the best thing to do when the patches just don't seem to be enough
I keep telling myself: ad addict does not know how or is not comfortable "treating themselves with respect"
