I smoke off and on. I will find it inconvenient or some other reason and just make the decision and stop, no angst or planning, no withdrawl or cravings. I may go six months or even several years until I find it convenient again. And, like you, I enjoy the smell of smoke. I find it more a habit than an addiction. Maybe my brain is broken.
You may not be all that rare. I too quit several times over the years, often just because I never can do anything consistently.
The last time, it took will power to deny such a pleasure, but not a great deal of it.
Never really had what I'd call an addiction to it...or anything else.
They should put US in a study, eh? We could really fudge up the results.
Speaking of fudge, it's time for my IV.
