I quit in July. Because of the pandemic, smoking became a heavier weight on my mind and greater source of anxiety. Wondering if I was setting myself up for horrible consequences.
I never smoked in my car, ever in my life. So driving home from work meant I was going to park myself in a grocery store parking lot, and take off my mask to smoke. As far away from everyone as possible, but still. Very uncomfortable stares.
Smoking became less social too. Other than my best friend a handful of times, I smoked by myself for those last few months. So instead of being a social break to relax, smoking became stressful and lonely. I do not miss it. elvan ...smoker's breath under a mask was awful. Like living in an ashtray. I should have bought stock with how much gum I went through
