I'm confused about something you say on the site and that is that you say smoking produces an "ahh" sensation. You also say that smokers only smoke to relieve withdrawal symptoms. If it produces an "ahh" sensation, then doesn't that mean smokers enjoy smoking? I've been smoke free for a year and a half now and I'm having thoughts about smoking again because I get depressed a lot and feel like I need to smoke sometimes to be happy or get that "ahh" sensation. Am I just making up excuses or what? I would really like to believe that smokers just smoke to relieve withdrawal and don't get anything out of it, but it's hard for me to believe that sometimes when I see so many smokers that seem "happy." I kind of remember the few times that I relapsed in the past where I just felt mad at myself about caving in, but I also remember another time where I went a week without smoking and I enjoyed it quite a bit. Did I just enjoy it because it had only been a week of abstinence from nicotine? I almost feel like trying it again just to see what I think of it all, but in the back of my mind I don't want to do that because I fear I will hate it. Please write me back if you have time Joel. Thank you very much.
