I am a smoker :o But as of this morning, I am trying to think of myself as a non smoker.
I need to give up for various reasons;
A) It stinks
B) It's disgusting and I hate it and obviously bad for my health
C) It's selfish when I have a son's health to think of more importantly (not that we smoke anywhere near him but we still stink of it when we come in from outside )
D) It's costs us a small fortune every month, this money can be saved
E) I DO NOT want to still be a smoker when I open my beauty room
I know all of the above in my head, I know how disgusting it is, I hate smelling of it, I HATE it full stop. I have stopped, started, stopped, started, I just want to STOP!! I have tried cutting down but if they're here, I smoke them, so now trying cold turkey and just chewing Nicorette gum. I stopped smoking for several months and felt great but as soon as something remotely stressful happens, I reach out for them again.
But I am already struggling and it's only 9.30am :sad: Although I know all of the above, I also feel completely controlled by this horrible little stick and feel I am not ready. Could really use some encouragement and moral support, this is so hard!
