Q: Sexual fetish and smoking

Ok, well, this is a little hard for me to discuss, but god bless the anonymity of the internet!

I'm only 22 years old, but I have developed, over the years, a fetish regarding cigarette smoking. I'm ususally very ashamed and embarrassed about it, and up until a month and a half ago, I was a smoker (albeit incredibly shady about it). No one really knew and I kept it mostly to myself, and it created a lot of stress and anxiety to have such an addiction be such a secret. I had stopped after some potential thyroid problems and finally had a low stress lifestyle (just graduated, came home).

Recently I got a part time job to get some money while I produce artwork. Dealing with customers and learning everything there is to know about the job has brought on a lot of anxiety and stress. I buckled a couple days ago and smoked a cigarette at work, and I feel terrible to say that I was so relieved by it. I have since not smoked, but I feel a constant anxiety about it and it's basically all I can think about. The potential to go smoke is so tempting that it gets my heart racing, but I am so conflicted, and don't, and it's tearing me up inside.

The problem basically boils down to this: I don't want to smoke anymore, but my attraction to women that smoke keeps bringing be back over and over. I've usually stopped for a month and then can't take it anymore. Is there any way I can train my brain to not be attracted to this any more?

I'd say try and hang around people who don't smoke, or avoid smoking environments. Also try and replace that "addictive" feeling with something positive; Go for a walk, watch tv, read, exercise, draw, ect. There's countless things you can do to replace the time you think about smoking.

The relieving feeling you get when you break down and smoke is your habit getting the best of you. Put it this way, is killing yourself little by little relieving? Self discipline is key.

As far as your attraction for women who smoke, I'm not sure. That's a big turnoff for me basically. Yellow teeth, smelly clothes, lungs full of tar, and possibly cancer do not attract me what so ever.

My outlook on smoking: You might as well put your money in a pile and burn it. Whether people want to believe it or not, smoking is committing suicide.

As far as training your brain goes, try and find something to crave that is positive. For me, working out is what I crave because of it's benefits. I love to see my body change for the better. If this can't be done, stay busy or surround yourself with people who wouldn't want to see you smoke or die of complications in the future.

It all comes down to this:
There is no benefit of smoking. Nothing about it is safe or good for your body and your wallet for that matter. It breaks down self discipline, empties your wallet, and damages your body.
