    I need to quit, I'm nearly ten years smoking and I'm still young, thats way too long, its unhealty, its too expensive, I'll get wrinkles, I'll probably die of a smoking related disease......so many really good reasons and I need to give up smoking.....I have to give up.

    Except I dont want to! I know it sounds contradictory but I really really need to but in the other hand I looove smoking, I love the taste the first one in the morning, the second one....the third one. I love going outside the pub to smoke and I love having one after eating, after the cinema, I have a ciggerette before I start something and when I finish something. I really enjoy it.

    What if I never want to give up smoking? Surely thats no excuse to keep smoking forever. Should I just get a life and quit? :(

    Don't worry about it, it's just the delusion brought on by the nicotine addiction.

    Truth is, there's nothing to enjoy about them, they taste like crap.
    Now that I'm a non-brainwashed ex-smoker, it's really easy for me to spot such delusion but at a time I myself believed I loved cigarettes and everything about the act of smoking. I know that sounds smug, but once I came to said realisation I felt like a f**king eejit for going around telling people how much I loved the disgusting things.
