Went months without touching a cigarette only to once again let it get my ass. I was doing so good man I swear. All it took was one shitty day and I needed my binky. It’s been a day without one since I stopped and I’m proud of myself. I’ve struggled with this bs since 13 and I seriously am so tired of running back to it. I want to make it stick. Just really happy I’ve made it today without buying a new pack. Good shit Los.

Huge accomplishment! Life long chain smoker here and for the first time in years I didn’t run to my favorite little treat when my day was kicking my ass! This is big people, just gonna grab a pack of gum and chew my worries away.

It’s been 8 months since my last smoke, the longest I’ve gone in 12 years.
Some unconventional tips:
- being delusional is effective. I tell myself cigarettes are bad luck. If I smoke one, something bad will happen.
- My relationship to cigarettes was spiritual, every single one was a little prayer. To fill the gap, I leaned into woo: candles, tarot, talking to god.
- Cigs were my edge, but they numbed me. To keep that rebellion alive, I leaned into things that scared me: fashion choices, challenging long held values, leaning into my queerness, wasting time.
- Somatic release. Shake your leg, wring your hands, go to the gym. Also, going to the gym gets a lot easier when you make the conscious choice to not hate on the bros or influencers.. everyone’s trying to find their place. Love > Snark
- It only gets easier if you know exactly WHY you want to smoke in the first place, and address the root causes with mindset or lifestyle changes. Quitting cold turkey without change is not enough.

Second only to smoking cigarettes, quitting something that I have done near daily for 7 years is so fucking rock and roll it’s awesome to have moral high ground and an easy win buzzing in the recesses of my brain

Don’t be that person. Mf got a banana and a Celsius, something is going down and they need to make a quick exit. You got mad vegetables anyway, let the cashier breathe a little before they struggle to remember how to ring up them green onions you copping.

Nothing better than giving someone a little squeeze to show them you got them. It’s always great when someone can sense that you need it and add a little something to the hug. Don’t settle for a dap. Get in there.

I have no context at all but I love it. Feels like I’m missing out but that’s alright it’s just good to hear somebody having a big ol belly laugh and enjoying this shit while we’re breathing.
