A comment by unknown jane on Let's go

Cold turkey, last week -- had to give up booze too at the same time (Doc put me on some meds that don't jive well with either -- I'm thinking Doc is a closet sadist). I've got some nicotine gum, which tastes like an ashtray that's been pulled from a dead rhino's backside, not touching it I'll suffer a complete withdrawal.

Presently I believe I'm on the 7th stage of loss and recovery -- moved from dejection to bitterness sometime yesterday. Desperately trying to think of something that will take the place of smokes -- I run into a lot of idiots in my life, smoking helped me stay sane and them safe.
