So I'm kinda proud of myself bc I've switched to an ecig with half the nic content of my previous brand

I'd never smoked until around November of last year, but my previous job was destroying me mentally and emotionally so I started thinking it'd be temporary and just never stopped

like my coworkers were all great but the job itself was a "promotion" out of necessity (staffing changes) that left me in a place where I was SUPER unfit

Hey I'm super proud of u! Quittings a hard process and you're on your way <3

and yeah, my anxiety meds were doubled and I was diagnosed with depression within the span of a year

So now that I'm at a new place that's perfectly suited to my interests and skills, I'm slowly relearning how to react normally to shit instead of being hypervigilant and terrified All The Time

and it's weird bc I don't hate waking up every morning and that SHOULD feel normal but it doesn't yet

But yeah, trying to turn smoking into a "once in a while socially" thing and alcohol into a "not every goddamn day" thing

JejuneN Thanks love ♡

luckily I don't get like, any kind of withdrawal symptoms? When I visit my family I never take any with me, for example. But I like the comfort of it and having something to do with my hands on commutes and stuff is soothing

Also! just wanna say I don't have any like, negative feelings about habitual smokers. I just personally did not intend to continue as long as I did!

💕💕💕 much love!!!
