No. Gotta be honest. I worry about my lungs, my health, how smoke ages your skin, how it saps you of energy, how it makes you out of breath, what it does to your appetite and metabolism, how expensive it is, how discolored my smoking hands are, what it does to your teeth and mouth, the smoke smell on your hands and in your hair, how unprofessional it looks, and on top of all that, I don't even ENJOY it anymore, I only do it because I'm ADDICTED. I tried the lozenges, they didn't help with cravings, and they for some reason made my gums very sensitive and very painful.

I keep trying to START day one. I get rid of my cigarettes at the end of the day, EVERY day, and in the morning the urge to smoke is so strong that I just go to the store and get some without even thinking about it. It is seriously without thought. I don't even MEAN to do it, I just DO it.

I don't know what to do.
