Gibberings CLXIV - I don't Have a Clue if These Numerals are Right I'm Still Drunk

I'm annoyed at how much tobacco I'm smoking recently. Really do need to make a more concerted effort with these patches and inhalator thingies. Am on a tolerance break from those which is probably why I'm smoking so much more. They do help me cut down but the final step is still beyond me. Well it's not actually beyond me, I've just not taken it yet. Still considering an e-cig cos if I'm not gonna actually quit (which seems to be the case on past and current evidence) I should at least minimise the damage. Keep putting it off cos seems like it's "giving in" somehow but that's kinda ridiculous as an excuse even by my standards. I do worry about just how much I'd use the thing though. At least with a cig it burns down and I know that's the end of the cig and I have to actively make another one if I want one. With an e-cig I can just see myself chugging away on it till I empty the reservoir. Although that'd presumably make me sick so maybe I wouldn't.

Ramble on...
 
yeah of an evening i feel like my grandad as im almost constantly puffing away on the thing and you have to smoke them in the manner of a pipe otherwisie if you tilt them up too much you get a mouthfull of nicotine juice rather than vapour. I Probably have about 3 or 4 hits every ten minutes or something throughout the evening, and i hammer it first thing when i get up with my morning brew, but then for the mid part of the day i dont use it much. Its not like a cig where you have to smoke the whole thing at once, otherwise its a waste of money, and "dock ends" taste fucking foul put out and relit. If you do make the change, and i would strongly reccomend it on taste (far more pleasant) ,financial, and health grounds. Also much cleaner with no ash everywhere and you dont have to smell like an ashtray.

I find acid far more forgiving than its made out to be... The whole, dont ever take acid unless you're in a fantastic mood and in a fantastic place doing cartwheels is massively over exaggerated imo..

Same here. I was gutted when I discovered this after years of not taking it when I had the chance :(

BTW, the numerals look correct to me!
 
Though saying that, part of me would kill for a spin on the emotional rollercoaster right now. Or maybe just emotions full stop, instead of this weird blunted feeling. The more sensible part of me knows that it would inevitably lead to being crazy again. Such is life.
 
I've always considered the "aftereffects" of drugs as part of the experience. If you decide that it's a negative thing it will be negative. I've always found there are positives to be taken from even the darkest of comedowns. At least I try to find positives and think I'm reasonably successful for the most part. What goes up... It's just part of the deal as far as I'm concerned - may as well make the best of it.

Saps watch Sapranos. Sops watch The Sopranos (presumably whilst drunk).

The E-cigs are amazing. They really do help you cut down.

I think spirit very much accompanies tobacco addiction. For instance, I think the physical addiction symptoms are meant to last for 2 weeks or something? However, months after stopping if I have a particular negative, unhappy thought, that thought will often be accompanied with "Well I may as well have a cigarette".

last time I stopped, I had just finished a course (and passed) and was in a particularly good mood. I found quitting very easy - I just stopped - and had no noticeable physical urges to restart after that.
 
I think I'm going to rediscover psychedelics proper in middle/old age.

The fearlessness of youth is gone but is slowly being replaced by a spiritual confidence that I never used to have

Looking forward to it!!
