The better I feel the more I smoke What possible sense could there be in that? Feeling good is not enough, so you want to feel even better, so you add the pleasure of smoking? Oh! I get it. When you feel good, you think you don't deserve it because you are not a good little boy, so you punish yourself for feeling good! That's it isn't it? That's terrible! What suffering is in that!
