戒菸最難的不是菸，是那個「就一口」的小魔鬼 😈🚬

我想先坦白：我從 15 歲開始抽菸，一抽就是將近 30 年。
如果戒菸有學分，我大概重修了二十次。

😈 小魔鬼永遠出現在第二天、第三天

每一次戒菸，第一天我都超勇敢。
到了第二、第三天，小魔鬼就開始靠近我耳朵：

「就一口啦～你這麼辛苦，獎勵一下自己嘛～」

然後你也知道，一口 = 全部破功。
小魔鬼比我更會說服我自己。

❄️ 紐約冬天：為了抽菸，我走得比上班還遠

我最荒謬的戒菸經驗發生在紐約。
冬天零下、風像刀子，我不想讓任何人知道我抽菸。

所以我會：

  • 走超級遠
  • 走到沒有人會經過的角落
  • 冷到眼淚一直流
  • 只為了偷抽「那一口」

而且我還以為自己很聰明。

直到我現在不抽菸了，我才知道：
不抽菸的人永遠聞得出來。
只有抽菸的人以為「沒人知道」。😂

🔥 我正式成功的那次：不是靠意志力，是靠痛

真正讓我成功戒菸的，是有一天我去拔牙＋補骨粉。

很痛。痛到我連吸一口菸都不敢。
醫生也說吸菸會讓植牙失敗，我當下就想：

「我都痛成這樣了，我不可能讓它失敗。」

就這樣，那一天我對小魔鬼說：

NO.

然後我真的再也沒有回去抽。

💛 想給正在考慮戒菸的人

我抽了 30 年。
真的。如果我做得到，你也做得到。

但不是因為我「自律」，也不是因為我「意志力強」。
是因為我終於跟那個小魔鬼說：

“Not today.”

🌟 最後，我想說一句實話：

現在回頭看以前的我——真的很好笑。
但那也是我，那是當時我最努力、最掙扎的樣子。

如果你也在路上，記住：
不要笑以前的自己，她只是用她當時的能力在生活。

等你準備好，你會自己跟小魔鬼說：
「謝謝你，今天就到這裡。」

The Hardest Part of Quitting Smoking Is Not the Cigarette — It’s the Little Devil Saying “Just One Puff” 😈🚬

I started smoking at 15. And I didn’t stop until almost 30 years later — sometime around COVID.
If quitting smoking had a GPA, I repeated the course twenty times.

😈 The Little Devil Always Shows Up on Day 2 or Day 3

Day 1 is easy. I was strong, determined, unstoppable.
But by Day 2 or Day 3, the little devil would whisper:

“Just one puff… You’ve been doing so well… You deserve it~”

And you know how it goes:
One puff = failure.
The devil was always better at convincing me than I was.

❄️ New York Winter: Walking a Marathon Just to Hide a Cigarette

My funniest (and saddest) smoking era was in New York winter.
Freezing wind, negative temperatures — and me, walking blocks and blocks away just to hide a single puff.

  • Walk far
  • Hide behind a random corner
  • Freeze until my tears came out
  • All for ONE PUFF

I thought I was smart.

Now that I don’t smoke, I realize:
Non-smokers always know. Always.
Only smokers think they’re sneaky. 😂

🔥 The Time I Finally Quit for Real: It Wasn’t Willpower

The real turning point wasn’t discipline — it was pain.
I had dental surgery with bone grafting, and it hurt.

The doctor said smoking might ruin the implant.
At that moment, I thought:

“There’s no way I’m suffering like this for nothing.”

So I told the devil:
“Not today.”

And that was it. I never looked back.

💛 For Anyone Thinking About Quitting

I smoked for 30 years. For real.
If I can quit, you can too.

Not because I’m strong —
but because one day, you will get tired of losing to that little devil.

🌟 And One Last Thing

When I look back at my old self, I actually find her funny.
But she was doing her best with what she had.

When you’re ready, you’ll tell the little devil:
“Thank you. That’s enough for today.”
