Quitting smoking
I’ve been having a lot of dreams about smoking recently. These come from the fact that I’ve recently quit. The problem with smoking is that my brain associates it with so many situations, and so now when I don’t smoke it thinks something is wrong. This then makes smoking show up in my dreams.
Sometimes I’ll dream of smoking and will feel a great sense of failure because I believe that I haven’t actually quit. In my dreams, I start getting annoyed with myself for not being able to quit. As it is, I’ve gone almost two weeks without smoking, but it’s incredibly difficult.
Everywhere I go, and every time I got out, I see people smoking and I notice it. This then shows up in my dreams because it’s something I can’t escape from. It’s always on my mind, but given time it will get easier.
I suppose the dreams are part of the challenge, but clearly my brain thinks that I should be smoking. I need to convince it otherwise or else I might start again. I got drunk last night and didn’t smoke, so I think I can do it. I hope so anyway, because smoking really sucks.
