Smoking.
I just hope I can stay off them this time. I'm fed up with standing out in the cold, getting dirty looks in coffee shops, feeling panicky when I've run out and going to the offy when it's cold and wet. I'm fed up with drinking too much coffee to justify more ciggies to smoke, smelly hair and clothes, clearing my throat and generally feeling jaded and tired and out of breath. I particularly hate forking out £60 per week on the habit which is what it's cost me in recent months.
Already in just 3 days of not smoking (minus one relapse yesterday) and a few days in the run up of cutting down by half, my energy levels are already higher and I already feel brighter and younger than I have for a while. Most importantly food is beginning to taste better.
It's still hard though and the nico' pangs are still quite strong, particularly if anything upsets me - which causes me to reach for a packet again.
