“I went to Columbia University because they were doing a study on people who suffered from panic attacks, and because I suffered from panic attacks my whole life, I decided to be a part of it. They had this questionnaire where they asked, How many units of alcohol do you have in a month? The top answer was 40 or more, and I got really scared because I was having on average 60 or 70 drinks a week. And I realized that that was a bad sign.” PeopleWholeAnswersStudyWeekMonthsDrinkDecidedUniversityAverageScaredAlcoholI RealizedWhole LifePanicUnitsColumbiaPanic AttacksColumbia UniversityQuestionnaires Author:Moby
“Unfortunately, once I did learn to smoke, I couldn't stop. I escalated to two packs a day very quickly, and stayed that way for about ten years. When I decided to stop, I adopted the method that my father had used when he quit. He would carry a cigarette in his shirt pocket, and every time he felt like smoking, he would pull out the cigarette and confront it: "Who stronger? You? Me?" Always the answer was the same: "I stronger." Back the cigarette would go, until the next craving. It worked for him, and it worked for me.” WayYearsTwoFunnyUsedNextFatherFeltAnswersTenDecidedStrongerMethodQuittingSmokeShirtsSmokingPocketsCigarettePacksAdoptedCravingCigar Author:Kirk Douglas
