The first thing your mind does when you try to kill its dependency on cigarettes is to start throwing loads and loads of 'reasons why' your day-to-day existence absolutely depends on maintaining the inflow of toxic chemicals and nicotine into your bloodstream.
Your cigarette breaks are not the things that solve the blank page syndrome... allowing yourself that period of time to think clearly does. Right now your in a sort of early stage panic mode - your body is realising its not getting the vital poison it needs so its trying desperately to alert you to the problem. Much the same is it does when your blood sugar is low, or when you need carbs etc.
Smoking cigarettes doesn't solve your problem. Do something else distracting instead. Go and walk to the shop and buy a Mars Bar, stand outside and eat it, then go back to your desk. This is good in three ways:
1. You put something into your body that makes a chemical difference
2. You emulate the behaviour of a fag break rather than observing a hole in your sechudle where a cigarette would have been
3. You help yourself to put on weight... part of your plan.oh, and
4.you get to practice going into a shop that sells smoking stuff without buying anything smoking related.
