A week amongst the shadows of the past: lessons learnt from a scientific study

How about lighting a cigarette after five years of being smoke-free? God forbid, it would be dumb of me. But for a scientific study I changed my mind for a week. Was it good? Hell, no. Was it beareable? Yes, it was. Would I smoke again? No bloody way. Has it worth it? Indeed it has, way beyond the scope of the study itself.
