A year ago today was a very stressful day for me. It was a work meeting that changed the whole direction I was heading in and made me just a regular guy again. The two weeks later I was moved to mornings. Now a year later things seem better than ever.
And it was a year ago yesterday that I started smoking again. The day before the meeting I was filled with anxiety like you wouldn't believe. I bought a pack of smokes. They seemed to help me relax and think more clearly. Well I'm still smoking but now it's more like a social time I can spend visiting with my co-workers. I only have a couple cigs a day. My best friend smokes so I have one with him a couple times a week. I smoke a pack a week. When I smoke I always wash my hands afterwords and cleans my breath so as not to offend the non-smokers. My friend wants to quit but I don't want to. I control it pretty well. My cravings are little to none depending on who I'm with and what I'm doing. It's easy for me to go without like that. I am good at quitting, I have quit many times ha ha ha! Anyway, I have been smoking for a year.
