I am currently working on quitting smoking. One thing that is making the process more difficult is the fact that going outside to smoke is one of the few excuses that I have to go outdoors while dressed. I have enjoyed going out on my back porch after dark fully dressed. This is a major disadvantage with quitting smoking since there is really no other valid reason to step outdoors dressed or otherwise if I am not smoking. Has anyone else encountered this particular difficulty does anyone have any advice for quitting while knowing that I am giving up one of the few excuses that I have to go outdoors while dress? I am very committed to quitting smoking but the loss of my excursions is making it considerably more difficult.
