no more downstairs for me..
I didn't want to post this before, why? I don't know.
But anyways, I quit smoking. My official, official quit date/time is 1030pm on Jan. 15th, but I actually count from Jan. 16th. So, it's been 8 days.
It's been alright. I had a 'breakdown' Friday night, but it was ok. Since then I have been fine. I'm on the patch, since I didn't want to deal with both the physical and psychological withdrawal at the same time. According to the patch plan, I should be smoke free in 9 weeks.
I am having a few issues though. One is other smokers. My mom does smoke, but her cigarettes don't bother me. (She smokes menthol - gross). If she smoked a non-menthol brand, even a crappy brand, I would probably want one. But I don't want one of her cigarettes, so it's fine. But at the bus stop the other day, this guy was smoking, and it seriously bothered me. What also is an issue right now is my allergies. They have seem to come out of hiding, so every fragrance bothers me. I wonder how this affects me DEET allergy (since 100% could kill me, and I was having issues with 10% at camp over the summer). We will see.
