RE: A quick rant about tobacco

in #canada5 years ago

It's funny how you've written the first paragraph in that reply, there's a duality that occurs when the rational part of your mind negotiates or argues with the addicted part of your mind in the early stages of quitting. I kind of enjoyed that duality and viewed it from an outside perspective like a third person. My Mrs didn't, for her it was a personal battle but for me it was like watching two other people wanting to get their way.

That internal shitfight only lasts 2 or 3 days tops, so if you can get over that stage, never take another puff.

Yes! This time around I have a good 6 years of self learning phychology and meditation so I have a great understanding of how that voice will say and persuade anything.. And all in aid to cause us pain in the end by listening to its suggestions. Fuck the mind! 😂

My house mate is back smoking next to me and all good! I reminded myself aswell that it wont be exactly like it was over a decade ago when I tried to stop again, another trait of the mind is to assure you the outcome will be the same as lastime especially on a bad outcome 😊

I am really done with it, and am just recognizing when the mind association happens. Got a good tactic this time around 😁
