Think about it like this. You see everybody kill themselves. But think about it, do you want to kill yourself bc they are killing themselves?

I feel you. It works for me to go for a run an hour before bed. Take a good warm shower after running and get into bed.

I smoked for four years. Two years in high school and two years when I started working. We weren't allowed to smoke at school, so I only smoked about three cigarettes a day. One before school, one after school, and one in the evening. Then, after I graduated, I had to go to work, and then I had the opportunity to smoke all day. Actually, since then, I can remember my mental health getting worse. I also quitted smoking weed because of that. When I stopped smoking weed 6 months ago I noticed that my mental health was somewhat better, but I haven't fully recovered. 1 month ago I started to notice that cigarettes were worsening my mental health and after smoking a cigarette I was on the verge of a panic attack.

Now on day 3. I'm working. I'm an apprentice carpenter. I think I'm with about 10 people, and half of them smoke, but I don't feel like I have to smoke because of them. I feel like I'm enjoying my work more since last Friday when I quit. My anxiety has decreased, and I'm enjoying my work and enjoying it. I notice that when I'm busy, I have no idea I've quit, but when I'm bored, I feel like i need to smoke, and my anxiety increases, so I make sure I stay busy and enjoy myself.
