This is a paraphrase of something I just read.
Don't fantasize about cigarettes. Always keep a clear, objective perspective of what it is be like to be an addicted smoker. There is no doubt at all that if you relapse to smoking you will be under the control of one of the most powerful addictions that exists. You will be spending hundreds or thousands of dollars a year for thousands of cigarettes. You will smell like an ashtray. You will be viewed as socially unacceptable in many circles. You will be constantly worrying about getting a smoking related disease. You will be ashamed of yourself. You will have difficulty breathing. Along with nicotine, you will be inhaling a huge number of poisons with every puff. These poisons will rob you of your endurance and your health. One day they will eventually rob you of your life.
Is this really worth fantasizing about?
