ok, this is personal, but i have to ventilate this somewhere, and i have no other place than here. Good if this start a discution, but just writing it make me feel better.
So i quit smoking friday. it been about 60 hours since my last cigarette. it's not my first rodeo. i smoked for 15 years or so, then quit for 2 years, then smoked for two years and quit again but start again a year after. so it been about three years since the last time i quit.
the gas station where i buy my cigarettes is closing at 11 pm, i start to write this at 10:30pm of so, so if i can pass 11pm, it will be very difficult physically to get cigarettes, unless i drive like 20 minutes to get to the next town to get some.
the thing is that nobody know except for my wife. i never smoke in front of my kids, i never smoke in my house, only outside, i never smoke at my job. my family dont know i started smoking again, my friends dont know either. and if i tell my wife that i quit, she will be super happy, and ask me about it 3 times per day. but without realising that it put pressure on me. so i didnt told her yet. i want to wait a couple of week.
so i am all alone in this. usually i smoke 3 cigarettes after my wife goes to bed, and i smoke 3 cigarette before going to bed. so in the weekends, i smoke about 6 cigarettes per day. on week days i usually smoke 3 cigarettes before going to work, 3 at the start of my lunch, and 3 after, plus the 6 i smoke at night like on the weekends.
i've been coughing a lot today. i know i have a small cold, but i think it might be because i didnt smoked this weekend, but it's a bit quick for that to happen. i have small panick attacks. i keep telling me that i could wait one more week before quiting, but on the other hand, what good one more week will give me ?
it's past 11 pm now, so i will be fine for the night, but tomorrow will be another day...
