Inform others in advance. Let your family, friends, and co-workers know that quitting may cause you to become easily angered or moody.
2
Avoid conflict. Steer clear of conversations that may lead to an angry outburst. If a situation escalates, walk away and calm yourself.

Practice mindfulness meditation. Sit quietly with your eyes closed and focus on your thoughts and surroundings. Mindfulness helps you pay attention to and respond to your feelings.

Apologize. If you do snap, resolve things quickly with an apology. Your loved ones will understand and forgive you because they’re happy you’re quitting.

Exercise every day. A daily dose of physical exercise is good for the body and the mind. It helps release endorphins that will improve your mood.
