I've been a smoker for over 30 years. I quit twice for about 2 years each time but the death of a loved one sent me longing for the comfort of my "old friend". "I'll just smoke today to get me through this" I'd tell myself and slowly fell back into my old habit.
Even now... I'm determined to quit for good, gradually went from almost a pack a day to 2 or 3 a day trying to get to zero.
Today I was determined not to smoke at all and I was doing great, wasn't craving it, felt good until I experienced emotional stress at work.
Then it's all I could think about and I broke down and had half of one.
How can I break this "emotional stress" smoking? I can't seem to handle stress without smoking!
