I would love to smoke right now so that I would stink and my fingers would be yellow. I also love to cough.

If I could smoke right now, it would help clear my head & I could solve this problem.
IS REALLY:
If I could smoke right now, it would help get me hooked again & I'd be right back where I was 89 days ago.

Something unhooked said tonight sparked a thought. When we are thinking of slipping/caving/giving in, whatever we call it, we tell ourselves something fantasy-based about smoking that makes it okay in our minds to do it. What if we each created a list of reality-based facts about smoking that we could insert, or replace, the fantasy we are telling ourselves. This might help us overcome the craves and/or prevent slips?
For example;
"I really really need a cigarette"
Insert fact after "I really really need":
"I really really need to get lung cancer and die"
or
"I sure wish I had a cigarette right now. It would calm me down and make me feel so much better"
Insert fact after "It would":
"I sure wish I had a cigarette right now. It would make me start coughing really bad and feel sick to my stomach"
I think we could have some fun with this. Anybody else have some suggestions of what to insert in place of the romaticizing thoughts?
