Journal Entry for June 19, 2008 Mood
Thursday, June 19, 2008

well here i am again. I really thought i had cracked it but hey this time I will do it. I must do it. I just have to keep strong and remember that what ever is going on in my life a cigarette will not help. it makes it worse because I was so ashamed to have given in that I became a secret smoker which brought problems of its own.  I didnt want to tell my daughter that I had started to smoke again so I waited till she went out or went and had a bath. These times were so stressful because a) i knew i was letting myself down b) I didnt want to be found out.

I knew I didnt want to do this anymore when one morning last week I actually set my alarm for 5.30 in the morning so I could go outside and have a cigarette before my daughter woke up then come in and have a shower so I wouldnt smell. HOW RIDICULOUS IS THAT??????

    Well my friend you have many people who has did the same things as you did to hide there smoking from others. Its an addiction that makes us its slave. It is hard to fight the addiction and get our freedom back, but you can do it. I did and I was a smoke many years. I quit cold turkey. You will do this when your ready to break free. Good luck
