Like Charles I feel distracted. And like many others I am struggling with the aftermath of the corona pandemic. I belong to the risk group and that is why I stopped smoking. It is now day 19, my smoking cough seems to be gone, my sense of smell and taste seem to have improved, and yet I feel uncomfortable. I have to keep pushing myself over and over again in order not to buy cigarettes. My psychological difficulties are much greater than my physiological problems.
