Smoking & Depression

18 years ago 0 +0 / -0 1160

Hi Lady, U r so right, it is all about knowledge. We can't fix what we don't know we have. We can't change it if we can't find it. I am discovering late in this game of life just how important the choices we make are. Knowing why we make them would be of most value. Especially if we are making the same choice over and over.

Someone told me on another site that I am under the misconsception that smoking would somehow bury all the emotions and "cure" my depression. This is a dangerous place to be. If I were to smoke, I would just be a depressed smoker! What an eye opener that was for me. (Yes, after this long quit I am still learning) There was a quitter around here when I quit that keep telling us that Knowledge Replaces Fear. I've decided to research depression some more, track my moods, and find out what triggers the emotions. Just like quitting smoking, I have to find out what my triggers are and put a plan in place so that I don't fall into the same trap time and time again. I need to keep taking my medicine and keep working with my counselor. I keep waiting for the morning that I wake up and I'm "healed". I suppose it is sort of like when I quit and I was waiting to wake up one morning and find that the ride was over and I was finally "over" quitting. It just doesn't happen that way. These are lifestyle changes and they take time. They also require our efforts to make the changes and to continue to make them until they become our new routines. From this evolves our new lives. Don't quit quitting. It just wouldn't be worth it.
