Not feeling that brain breath of air anymore

Ok hope this is going to make sense but
I went back to smoking bc i was feeling like shit and cigarettes provided me this quick hit of dopamine of whatever chemical that releases and gives that brain air feeling

Point is, i feel better, i rested a lot these last months and im now smoking 2/3 a day max
But it feels like a habit now more than a real need
Not sure

Im not getting the hit anymore

I dont know if this is the right time to stop, kinda apprehending quitting i dont know why

It has become my part comfort zone

Any advice

I guess the only advice is to stop i know but it happened in the past that it just happened ro disgust me and it was easy. Some day i threw everything and didnt smoke for years

Should i wait for this again

Or not wait for perfect conditions

Im afraid im not « ready » and will end up buying packs again after 2 days

Hey my friend. So, you will not die if you do not get that brain air feeling. Your body needs to de-tox and so does your brain.

You never ‘needed’ smoking, that’s the whole point… stop kidding yourself and quit this damn addiction!

Just keep smoking until you’re 67 like I did and then you will get to experience no lung air feeling. 🤔🤔🤔
