I hid my smoking out of shame โ even from the people I loved. It felt like I was the only one who couldn’t quit. But I wasn’t. If you’re feeling that too, this is for you.

and then
Youโre definitely not alone. I used to hide my smoking from friends who had already quit. I felt embarrassed, weak, like I was failing life. But shame never helped me quit โ it just made me smoke in secret. What did help was talking honestly, like this. When I forgave myself, I finally started healing. You’re not broken. You’re human.
