Mel Gibson Blames Mom For His Smoking Habit  Mel Gibson |
Actor Mel Gibson is dedicated to quit smoking. The actor said that it would have been much easier for him to quit if his mother hadn't been a smoker when she was pregnant with him.
"It is a hellish habit to break. Your neurons are involved. My mother smoked when I was in her womb. I first had one when I was nine years old and I thought, 'Yes, I missed this!' I knew I missed it," Mel Gibson quoted.
The actor added, "And 45 years later, after every single artistic decision; every decision I'd ever made was done with a cigarette. To not have that is pretty hectic. It's worse than crawling the walls, which I did for a while.”
He said, "There's no more fun things left. I just don't do anything fun anymore; but that's dying isn't it? I mean you die in stages. You let things go in pieces. It's mostly over halfway through."
According to sources, the ‘Lethal Weapon’ star admitted that quitting smoking is just the start of a new health regime for him.
"I try and eat right and exercise a little," he added.
