Guest guest Posted May 6, 1999 Report Share Posted May 6, 1999 man i get it something awful when i get into the car... i used to always light up then! Its weird though.. i don't crave the cigarette itself, the thought actually makes me a little natious (sp) but I find I want to do the action. the last cigs i had (i was prego and didn't know it yet ~ but this gave me a clue) made me literally gag! so that is the last memory i have associated with inhaling the smoke, which I think makes it easier!
