No sleep, I'm sure, is related for me to no smoking. I won't smoke but the
abscence of nicotine has opened up more than my lungs. Memories come back,
sometimes causing feelings of guilt & frustration, or even feelings of times of
happiness & contentment. The mind didn't really ever deal with the issues and
now it must. Like stirring up a puddle of water, it becomes muddy colored and
one has to wait for it to clear again.
I am certainly glad I quit smoking. Cigarettes are an end, not a beginning. The
feelings at a quit start of "losing something" are soon replaced by "gaining
something" and then with "maintaining" what you have gained.
Watch the animals of the world. The birds. See the way they work to survive.
Seeing only food & shelter & safety. Maybe to be a successful smoking quitter
we must shorten our eyesight temporarily to immediate goals so we can reach
our ultimate goal. Control & health!
