Smoking… one of the most highly addictive habit that any person can do in their free time, up until you start associating it with anything. And by anything i mean the ups and downs.
Coming from an ex-smoker, I used to smoke in my free time, after a meal, when grabbing a drink, and everytime i want to take a work break. I am not gonna lie. I…Enjoyed…IT!!
Recently, one of my closest friend’s mom passed away. She gave her life for her kids. She used to be a heavyyy smoker. She caught a heavy staged cancer that spread around her entire body.
After that sad period had ended, I made a promise with my close friend to never smoke again and to date it is going well.
Yes. I miss it sometimes but I would never do it at the expense of health and the people that care about me.
So my advice is to substitute it with something else.
Example: I play the guitar. So I always keep a guitar pick on me for whenever I feel like smoking, I play with the pick as to simulate the cigarette in hand.
