Dawn, Suggestion - put some time into strengthening your commitment to quit. When the cravings are strong, that commitment is important. I put together a list of a hundred reasons to quit. I thought it would not be possible, but it was. I had to dig deep to find all the negatives that I'd avoided facing, or hidden from myself. It helped strengthen my commitment. For me the biggest negative is that I value self control very highly. But the nicotine controlled me for over 30 years.
I've been puzzling over this feeling that I like to smoke. And I've come to some realizations that help. Each time I used to smoke, my brain released chemicals that created a feeling that I like to smoke, but thinking about the reality of what I was putting in my body - Did I really like that? Thinking about the reduction in oxygen in my blood, heart and brain - Hard to believe I liked that. Coughing, choking, the list goes on and on. That kind of thinking helped me realize, It isn't so much pleasure as feeding the addiction that creates a feeling that we like to smoke.
