I can't really say if I enjoy smoking or not. I would probably say that I don't enjoy it, but I just feel a compulsion to do it everyday. I started smoking at age 29 at a social occasion. Isn't that how it always starts? When you're around other people at a social event? It was the single most stupid thing I ever did. Now my days revolve around my smoking "habit". I've never been able to put out a cigarette half-way. I have to smoke it "to the bone". I just read Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking, and although I agree with his points, I don't find it any easier to stop despite reading it. Maybe it just hasn't sunk in yet. I will probably read it again in case I didn't understand all of his points. His approach is ridiculously easy, as he puts it, but maybe I was looking for something more than just a pep talk.
