Why I decided to quit smoking-Camel Crush

Camel Crush...Why do I smoke if I hate everything about it......?

Okay so I recently started smoking the new Camel Crush cigarettes that came out a few years ago. The first thing that called my attention was the very cool black box with blue letters on it, so for the first time in my 25 years of smoking occasionally or socially however you want to call it, I decided to buy me a pack of these Menthol or Non-Menthol Camel Crush Cigarettes, which cost about $7 a pack sometimes your lucky to get the one that comes with a $1 off instant coupon which in this case you probably have enough to buy yourself a good BIC lighter instead of those generic .59cent lighters that once in a while explode in your face if left on for more than 5 seconds!


What's really unique about this cigarettes is the fact that you actually get the option of having both a menthol cigarette and a non-menthol (regular) cigarette if for some strange reason you feel like having a change in your choice of cigarette. Or if your like me have alot of friends and family who like to ask me for a cigarette but then complain because its menthol or not the kind they smoke , even if they are just bumming a cigarette off you cause they didn't get a chance to stop by the liquor store and buy a pack, but most likely it's because they are broke from expensive cigarette prices. Now these cigarettes have a little ball of menthol in the filter that can be crushed with your fingers in order to realease the menthol crystals and turn it into a very strong menthol cigarette unlike any other menthol I have ever had, which is great for me since I am a menthol smoker but also gives you the option of  smoling a regular cigarette if you chose not to crush it, therefore you have a Camel Crush.

Now what my question seems to be to myself after I smoke a cigarette with my sisters or my friends who comes over and will always ask me for a cigarette because she just ran out and on top of that will ask if she can have a couple for the road. Which is one of the main reasons I want to just completely stop smoking. Another reason is that almost more than half the times I do smoke I end up with a huge migraine headache which actually puts me in tears because of the horrible throbbing and nose congestion I get along with so many other things, but yet I still end up smoking the next day or two but only when someone wants to have a quick smoke after a few drinks or dinner. Now I have tried quitting for a month or so and yes the headaches didn't come as much but I still get migraines either way but it's normal since I was around 15 years old, and yes I tried all those prescriptions pills and I always end up taking Excedrin Migraine which worked great until almost a year ago, which is another reason why I really need to just stop smoking cigarettes or else I don't know what else is holding me back.
