Okay, guys, I quit smoking, I did it at last! It was tough and I couldn't really concentrate on pretty much anything.. Let me tell you how I did it and how Steampunk helped me to quit.
I used to be a heavy smoker (up to 2 packs a day) for 5 years. At first, I really liked this habit: I could socialize with lot of people who also smoked, I could concentrate better on any subject (coffee+cigarettes - classic huh?..) and I thought my young body regenerates faster than cigarettes destroy it. I was wrong on so many levels it's even hard to comprehend now..
About a year ago I tried to quit at first time. And I failed. It made me realize that I'm really addicted and something is very wrong. After that I kept trying to quit. Time after time I failed. Again and again. Keeping not smoking for just one day seemed almost impossible. I was desperate.
Until recently, when I discovered an amazing universe of Steampunk. It became my new addiction. While reading steampunk magazines or watching movies I was so into it, I forgot to smoke. It took 3 days for me to realize that a pack of smokes I bought 4 days ago is still not empty (well there was just one cigarette left, but anyway!). It struck me like a lightning! I found a substitute, and it does absolutely no harm to my health. Moreover, it's making me a better person!
Being a part of some culture and feeling it with your guts makes you stronger. You feel more confident when imagine all the people who like the same stuff you do. It gave me strenght to handle my habit. And I quit for good.
Haven't smoked for a month by now and nothing will make me smoke again. Steam only looks like a smoke. In reality it's made of water. Just like we all are.
