I've been feeling the increasing need to smoke again lately. I think it's all the stress. I used smoking in the past to deal with stress and it's really never fully gone away. It's really bad. So it looks like it's back to gum! Before I started smoking - I chewed gum all the time. Then I smoked. Only for about 6 months, and not every day. Only when I was feeling stressed out. It's something in my life I really regret. If other people want to smoke, whatever, I mean we all know it's bad for you. Everyone is free to make their own choices. For me, personally, it was not a good one. I was always so anti-smoking that I really was such a hypocrite for doing it myself. But at the time it felt like the only thing I could do. And I won't go back to that. So anyway, after I stopped I went back to the gum. But I chewed gum so much my jaw started to hurt. Seriously, I chewed gum all the time. Well, looks like I better go buy some gum to keep in my purse. I am chewing some right now that I keep at work (along with the Jolly Ranchers).
