Write a Goodbye Letter

It may seem silly to write a goodbye letter to smoking. But the letter can feel like an important commitment to stop smoking. And it can help build resolve and strength.

Take a few moments to think about your history with smoking. Imagine your future free from it.

Like a dear friend, cigarettes may have become a source of comfort for you over the years. In the beginning, there were probably many good experiences. But as time went on, the bad experiences piled up. It became clear that this relationship was an unhealthy, lop-sided affair. It’s ok -- and perfectly normal -- to feel a sense of loss. Or for this to be an emotional, tough experience.

Many members of the EX Community have written theirs already. Take a few minutes to write your own goodbye letter to smoking. Then share it with the EX Community if you'd like.
