I've tried to give up both smoking and self harm. And giving up self harm is a lot harder. As previously stated, there are a lot more things of use for self harm, and if u can get the willpower not to go to the shops and buy cigarettes then u can quit. But when self harm can be done with anything from kitchen knives to razors then its more difficult. I live alone with my son, and I can't exactly take all kitchen knives away. But if i wanted to give up smoking (which i will try again soon) it's easy to take all the cigarettes out of my house to make it a bit easier for me.
