I just can't understand why am i clinging to my unconsciousness. I know a lot of meditations that can make me aware, i know what to do to be aware, however, i just sit there smoking, doing anything. Am i afraid of meditating? I am afraid to lose myself.. my thoughts? The smoke somehow turns me into my unconsciousness. It is as if i am in a state of hypnosis while i am smoking.
I am not happy or joyous while being in the unconsiousness, but i am not being consciouss too. I am not living in the past nor the present nor the future, i am just in an unconsciouss state of mind.
I just don't understand why am i clinging to my unconsciousness while i don't like being in there.
Any comments would help.

I'm guilty of this myself, I think it's because I am overstimulated at the moment and I really don't feel like being conscious in every thing I do right now because subconsciously I know I can slack a lilttle bit because my semester is done, I got an A in my class, my job is going to be closed for a week and a half at Xmas and I just need to relax. But I have been avoiding making the conscious choice to exercise and eat right, and get my butt up off the sofa and stop watching the idiot box. . .

You need to respect your past as it is what governs your future. We must learn from our past mistakes and past successes so that we can be a even better person in the present and future. But at the same time you must not dwell too much on the past other than to learn from it and then let it go and move on with your life.
Smoking is not the answer and is only hurting your health.
It is not the act of smoking that is causing your "unconscious state, it is that your afraid of the future. We can control our fate to a certain extent and you must believe in your self and your own ability to control your self. Your body and mind only know what you tell them. So take the time to talk to them - let them know that you and you alone are in control.
