Overcoming social pressure

It’s completely understandable to worry about the temptation to smoke/vape, especially if people around you (friends, family, colleagues, etc.) smoke/vape. This indirect pressure can make quitting harder because the temptation may be more present. However, if these people really matter to you, they should support you and welcome your decision.

Every year in Quebec, thousands of people try and plan to quit smoking/vaping.

Talk to your friends about your quitting, tell them how important their support is to you. For instance, you could suggest that the people who smoke/vape around you also quit: with two or more people, it’s easier! In addition, I QUIT NOW is there to support you in your process. Whether you use the service online, by phone or in person (or a combination), I QUIT NOW can help!
