rswfire,
You're right "Not everything is just "junkie talking." but in this case, I think it is. None of us can convince you to quit... you have to be ready to do that on your own. We can support you, guide you amd offer advice, but we can't quit for you. So until you're ready to tackle that fear, no matter what it is of, then you'll stay a smoker still active in the addiction.
Quitting is VERY scary... that's true. Whether your fear is of failure, of withdrawal symptoms, of being shunned by friends & loved ones who still smoke, of the unknown, or in your case - of the comfort... quitting is scary. No matter what your fear is, you MUST face that fear in order to conquer it. It's not easy to quit smoking, but it is SO worth it. And I've felt that freedom from smoking, and it's amazing! Once you experience it... REALLY experience it for several days at a time and don't even think about smoking whatsoever, then you have no idea how wonderful it is to be quit! I hope one day, you can experience that freedom and not be afraid of it! It really is a wonderful thing, but you have to want to quit and you have to be ready to quit. I hope that soon, you will be.
Crave the Quit!
