I fell off of it this morning! More accurately, I jumped off of it...and then ran screaming from it! I had what was basically a "perfect storm" of stressful and overwhelming things take place all within an hour of each other this morning and as I sat in my car to regroup, I realized I had two clear paths: I could stay quit and keep up my 14 days of not smoking, or I could sabotage myself and smoke. I took about 5 minutes and went through the reasons I should stay quit, how it doesn't improve the situation, I would be giving up my 14 days that I worked so hard for, I will need to detox from the nicotine again, etc. and I just said "f*ck it" and went into the store across the street from where I was parked (had just had my car fixed at the gas station) and bought a pack. I smoked all day, and you know what, I had a great, great day. It was super stressful because of part of my morning situation (work related) and other work stuff that cropped up during the day, but I was able to handle all of it with grace and wit. I was so "ON" all day! I was happy, witty, loving my job, even coworkers commented on how chipper and happy I was today. Was this from the little shots of dopamine I kept giving myself?? I think it was, and I don't know what to do about that because today was the best I felt at work since I quit smoking. I want to feel happy and funny and I want to enjoy my job! I know that cigarettes aren't supposed to be able to do that, so why did I feel so GREAT today?? As of this moment, I have not thrown the cigarettes out. I also don't feel at all guilty about smoking. I know I need to not smoke...I really fear having a stroke or heart attack or cancer, or developing smoking related lung problems. But how do I quit and keep quit if smoking doesn't make me feel bad (as of right now) and I had such a great day that I am completely sure is correlated to my smoking all day today??? I could definitely use some help on this one. I read all the usual websites and am well aquainted with them, I'm actually in the middle of reading Allen Carr's wonderful book as well.
