Allow me to begin by saying I LOVE smoking. That’s an awful fact to admit especially with today’s stigma attached to the subject but I must say i do enjoy it.
And this story starts about 38 years ago when I was just a young boy. My parents were 70s kids and they grew up in a time where smoking was normal and socially accepted. Everyone smoked and you might smoke anywhere you went the food store, the restaurant where you’re eating dinner, work and even the doctor’s office. Heck even a doctor was probably smoking in the visit with you.
Now I was about 5 or 6 years of age and my parents smoked around me and I hated it. I simply could not stand the smell of the smoke and I hated smelling like smoke all of the time. I’d gripe and moan begging them to prevent telling them it was nasty and making me sick and obviously they’d respond with the normal parental response of “quit your bitching” ;.From the onetime I was still really young but I had gotten into my mother’s purse and decided I would make her quit. So I grabbed her pack of “Marlboros” and I would show her and I threw them in the toilet and just left them floating there. Well my mom found them that way and she was furious at me. I probably got called every name in the book but at the end of everything she calmed down and talked if you ask me about it. She said “it really bothers you that bad huh?” Well I simply shared with her that it was gross and stinky and didn’t like likely to school and smelling like smoke all day. She agreed it was an awful habit and that she’d attempt to quit. Well obviously like many those who “attempt to quit” it didn’t really work. A couple of weeks after this event my mom learned that she was pregnant using what I was sure was my little brother and when she learned she was pregnant she viewed me and said “I’ll grant you your wish” and she never smoked again. Following my mother’s lead Mt dad even decided to stop smoking and even today they have never smoked again.
Fast forward about 10 years. I was about 15 roughly and I knew by this point I had an addictive personality even though I didn’t understand what that has been during the time I knew that I tended to over indulge in anything I found enjoyable. 1 day I was riding my bike along a highway(small town highway) and I found a pack of cigarettes that must have accidentally been dropped.by someone. I picked them up although I had never had any curiosity about smoking I thought I was cool with those ideas in my own pocket. You may be thinking to yourself that really must be when he started smoking but you would be wrong. I kept that pack of cigarettes hidden in my own room for months and every once in a while I’d get them out and look at them and smell them and even act like I was smoking but I knew much better than to ever actually light one up because I knew I wouldn’t have the ability to stop once I started and remember dozens of years ago how nasty my parents smelled because of those things.
Years went by and I resisted the urge to join all my friends and all of the “cool kids” and start smoking. I worked in restaurants where people smoked and took cigarette breaks while I was left working but I refused to smoke so I’d take air breaks 5 minute breaks where I’d disappear like everybody else but but I wouldn’t smoke I’d just stand there and breathe. 1 day I guess I was about 19 to 20 years of age I was returning from the visit to Louisville KY with a pal and he was smoking and I said oh to heck with it I’m going to use one and just see what all of the hype was about. From that first hit of this kulki smakowe do papierosów. Marlboro Menthol Lights I was hooked. My nerves appeared to calm and I was relaxed and just felt satisfaction.
So for another 18 years I was a devoted smoker. Smoking anywhere from 1 pack to 2 packs daily. I required my cigarettes even choosing to smoke over eating at times because I couldn’t afford to purchase both food and cigarettes.
I got married in regards to a year and a half ago and my partner is really a non-smoker now she doesn’t really gripe at me about smoking and she’s always helped facilitate my own, personal murder. Recently however she’d begun to have frusterated with my smoking worried that it would cost me an earlier life so she’s been asking me to stop and grumping at me about it every chance she gets.
6 months ago I decided she was right I was paying 6-7 dollars each day just to KILL myself and I had to create a change. I knew I was never likely to have the ability to just quit cold turkey so I started doing some online research. I found all sorts of advise on the best way to quit and what every one of these other folks had tried, gums and lozenges, patches and hypnosis. After a number of failed attempts I discovered Vaping. I ran across an internet site that said all about this new option to smoking called Vaping where people had these contraptions that took this juice and once you hit them you blew out these large clouds of vapor. I read a great deal about the merchandise and the advantages and the downfalls. Some will say it’s worse than smoking some will say it isn’t as bad but it’s still horrible. All things considered my research I have found that overall vaping is far healthier than cigarettes. Tabacco is sprayed with tons of carcinogens and arsonic along side a multitude of other deadly chemicals and then rolled into a cigarette and lit on fire. That just sounds horrible already.
