So today is supposed to be my last day smoking. It’s also been kind of bleep-tastic.
Not because of smoking. Just… well, my private life sucks. I’m not talking to my family for various reasons, and pretty much everyone at the office, except for one good friend, forgot my birthday. Not that they should care. Plus… whatever. I’ll stop bellyaching now. I’m just back in depression mode.
I think I need some Prozac or something.
Anyway, I told all my friends that they can’t give me cigarettes anymore unless I’m in a terrible state.
Funny that I feel that way today. But this is how all — or nearly all — of my birthdays go.

Yes, I read your blog. Sorry for the difficulties on your birthday. Just keep trying at it (not smoking). I can’t give much advise via a blog post on the other issues you mention. Maybe you could tie this in to the Great American Smokeout (G.A.S. and officially my favorite acronym for a real event).
Think about why you smoke-Do you have faith in something greater than yourself?
I am wondering if you plan to quit. I quit 5 weeks ago and have been going through a lot with withdrawl symptoms etc. I have been using this site to find encouragement but just find whining. Honey, If you want to quit do it. No cheating, no whining, just do it. If you WANT to fail you will. Until you can honestly tell yourself that you want to quit…. you won’t be able to.
I hope you can do it. I believe you can do it…. but you have to toughen up and want to. Go for it. You’ll be glad you did.
Hey, Long time not hear from. Sorry life has potholes in it. Things just have a way of being upside down when all we want is to know what to expect. How did you do on the day of the Great American Smokeout?
