seems like everyone i know smokes

hey everyone,

I am new here. I joined this group because the whole being around other smokers constantly is the biggest obstacle for me quitting. My boyfriend smokes and I don't think he has any interest in quitting but I am 26 and have smoked for the past 5 years and I think it is time for me to quit. I am just unsure how to deal with the whole quitting process when surrounded by smokers. Anyways, hope we can help each other out with this extra challenge to our resolve to quit. Looking forward to chatting more and exchanging tips and support to be successful in our shared goal.

Trista, biggest tip I can give you is read up. Know your triggers and dedicate yourself to quitting. My GF quit after I did. Unfortunately she had to quit cold turkey in the hospital. Not fun! You might have to distance yourself from people while they're smoking. They might even take the hint and chose not to smoke around you. Luckily, even the people in my life who smoke were supportive of me.
