Faltering

I feel my mind faltering. It's telling me that I want a pack of cigarettes. It's telling me I need a pack of cigarettes. It's telling me that I can smoke only one. I can control this habit. I can control it. Try those new cigarettes! The ones without no additives (American Spirits)! Don't you want to taste them?

It's like a jackhammer tripping away at my mind. I am weak and am getting weaker and my mind is a flurry and I can't concentrate and my mouth is sore from all these suckers. And I can smell again! My sense of smell is returning ever so slightly. I'm smelling the smoke on others again. I smelt a cigarette from like a 100 yards away. I smell lunches.

My breathing seems clearer. I'm remembering what I've been through the past two days and I don't want to face that again. I've done that far too many times to turn around now. Do I want to go through this again? And hell, the whole reason I did this was for lent, and why give up on the first damn day? lol

This is hard. This is very very hard.

  1. The brain of an addict will go to incredible lengths to justify it's habit. I feel for you, man.
