On the road to work

On the road to work
  • If I were Nick, how would I feel about being in my car without any smokes?
    • I feel anxious. I’m worried about cravings from the habit of smoking in my car.
    • I’m irritable. I feel like I’m going to snap at everything and anything.
    • I’m determined to get through this craving, no big deal.
    • I feel scattered, like I can’t keep my mind on the road.
    • I feel tempted because the smell of smoke is overpowering.
  • If I were Nick, how would I deal with cravings while driving?
    • Open all the windows to get fresh air.
    • Plan ahead to thoroughly clean my car.
    • Have some sunflower seeds and gum to chew on.
    • Take the bus or carpool to work with friends who don’t smoke.
    • Take a different route to work.
    • Take deep breaths to deal with traffic-related stress.
