Quit Smoking Let Other People Know That You've Quit Many smokers when they trying to quit smoking have a tendency not to talk about it too much. They fear discussion of cigarettes and quitting will only increase the desire to have one. In most cases, however, the opposite is the case. If you tell everyone you interact with that you've quit smoking, you'll likely receive lots of support, which is crucial to the overall process. Someone who doesn't support your attempt to quit smoking is not a true friend. Most people will find that almost everyone they know will be very supportive of the idea. By letting the people around you know that you've quit smoking, you will be creating an instant support group that will be there if you find yourself having trouble. Most good friends aren't going to let you have a cigarette in their presence, and if you don't want to tell people that you've quit smoking, you should think carefully about the reasons: it's probably because on some level you'd like to be able to smoke - to lapse occasionally - without being hassled or feeling like a failure.
Another great reason to let people know that you've quit smoking is
this: other smokers that you know are going to be very
interested. They will want to know how you quit and how it's going.
Regularly discussing your quitting process with other envious smokers
will reinforce to you the reasons why you decided to quit in the first
place, and greatly increase your chances of success. Most smokers will
pepper you with questions when they find out you've quit, and it gives
you a chance to tell them how much better you're feeling, how much
money you're saving, etc.
