There really are no advantages!.
It's a disease!.!.!.an addiction!.
Just like alcohol, food, sex, drugs!.
It is an addiction!.
[damn!.!.!.you just made me light one up!]
I hate smoking!.!.!.everything about it!
Hate it! Hate it!
I hate what it does to my lungs!.
I hate what it does to my clothes!.
I hate what it does to my car!.
I hate feeling hated by the rest of
the world and have to go outside
the building 15 feet away to smoke!.
I find myself smoking more if I know
I'm going someplace where I can't
smoke!.
[no other addicts are made to do that!.!.!.
do you see sex addicts having to go
15 feet outside a building to have sex!?!?
or fat people 15 feet outside a building
eating their double whopper cheeseburger
with extra cheese!?]
ok!.!.!.that was a joke!.!.!.!. but a true joke!.
The only thing I heard that works
is this "anti-depressant" that will make
you quit!.
Do I want to take more drugs to make
me stop taking another~ nicotine!?!?
So I can
get addicted to an anti-depressant!?
When I was a kid!.!.!.they didn't give
us the evil info on cigs!.!.!.so, after
smoking half my life!.!.!.I"m stuck and
it sucks! It's my only vice!. I don't
drink or any of the other nasty stuff!.
Just one nasty thing ~ smoke!
Someday!.!.!.when all my stress it
out of my life~ maybe I can quit!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
