Question Posted Monday September 15 2008, 11:59 am
I made a mistake and started smoking just before I turned 14...but I gave up after about 7 months of smoking. Stupid I know, but I gave up :]
Now I'm constantly thinking about it and I tend to miss it.
What are some things or whatever I could do to stop thinking about it.
I'm not going to start again, I don't want to...but I need to stop thinking about it and I don't want to miss it.
15/f
Please no lecturing on how bad it is for you. I know, I made a mistake. Also thinking ''It's bad for you'' doesn't stop me from missing it.

There is this scripture in the bible that warns us to "take every thought captive" That means to grab it and throw it out. Resolve to refuse to think about it!

every time you want a ciggerette, go for a fruit. if you go for sugar / fatty foods youll just get addicted to those and that wont be good :]
