Right. So as cliche as it might be, I am planning to give up smoking from the 1st of January. (yep I know)
I don’t feel like I have a strong motivation. I smoke one pack a day, which is ridiculous. Been smoking for 10 years. Not always this much, but still 10 years.
So far my reasons would be:
- Money- it obviously costs me a shitload of money even though I’m not in the UK, they still cost the world.
- I smell of cigarettes and that’s not exactly sexy.
- I only smoke in the kitchen with the window open but that obviously stinks as well.
- I have to sneak out at work for a smoke which makes me feel like the ultimate drug addict.
So I guess my questions are: how did you quit smoking and most importantly how did you do it so you don’t start again?
What was your strongest motivation? How did you feel in the first few weeks and what were your tricks to overcome the stress?
Thanks everyone!
