We, human beings, are social animals. We want to feel accepted and acknowledged. We long to be part of a tribe of like-minded fellows, a cool-seeming group, or the majority of the populace. In an attempt to join them, we start adopting their common mindset and patterns.
Similarly, on many occasions in life, you may have come across people who smoke frequently or regularly. You may be tempted to believe that you are cooler and/or more macho if you slide a cigarette between your fingers. That could be your first moment with cigarettes. Gradually, you may have developed a love for cigarettes or may have continued to smoke in social situations only to feel like you’re a part of something or less awkward around strangers.
If you’ve recently decided to quit smoking, it can be difficult to deal with the above situations or scenarios when your friends habitually ask you to join them for a smoke. Whether it’s coworkers or friends, you can manage the peer pressure of smoking. This blog explains how.
What To Do When People Want You To Smoke With Them?
Talk to them specifically
All smokers are aware that cigarette smoking is injurious to their health. So, if you just share your resolve with them, they may take you lightly. So, be specific in your reason to say no. Your reason could be:
- Your impaired health, or
- Your family’s safety, or
- Using savings accumulated from not smoking towards a benefit, or
- Desire to stay fit, or
- Desire to not be known as a smoker, or
- Fulfilment of a promise made to a loved one, or
- A realisation that cigarettes are not beneficial.
It may feel overwhelming to defend yourself when your group is trying to get you to smoke lighter cigarettes or smoke occasionally. But being specific is a great way to get friends and coworkers on board immediately.
Accept the pressure
Your friends may ridicule you for not smoking or cajole you into smoking cigars, or try vaping or smoking light cigarettes. You may find your friendship to be at stake.
You don’t need to change your social circle when you quit smoking. Instead:
- Accept this peer pressure rather than resisting it.
- Observe and reflect on the bodily sensations you feel when you see so many people smoking.
- Jot down the thoughts that come to your mind when your friends ask you to smoke.
This assimilation of thoughts will help you develop a mental muscle to handle any kind of peer pressure. Instead of running away from friends, improve your resistance to peer pressure. It will help you prepare your body to quit smoking successfully.
