Esp when leaving them involves disappointing people you don't wanna let down?

How would quitting bad habits disappoint people! :?
@SW-User because if I leave, they won't be able to do it either and they may still want to 🤔 cause it's not bad for them but idk how I feel about it
SW-User
@WittyKittyfeelinShitty Well, I think they should understand and respect your decision.
SW-User
@WittyKittyfeelinShitty ...Wait! Are you talking about getting out of SW?! 😨
@SW-User and if I was?
SW-User
@WittyKittyfeelinShitty Then I take my words back! 🤐
@SW-User and what advice would you give instead?
SW-User
@WittyKittyfeelinShitty Um.. maybe you don't have to leave permanently. You can try to pay more attention to your real life instead :?
@SW-User so I should stay, even if I find doing so morally questionable and I don't even mean what I say?
SW-User
@WittyKittyfeelinShitty Morally questionable? :? That's another thing! If you're worried people might judge you for it, I don't think that really makes it a bad habit, as long as you're aware that you're not doing anything wrong.
@SW-User but what if I am doing something wrong in my own eyes? Even though it may not be in the eyes of others
SW-User
@WittyKittyfeelinShitty Well then, I'm afraid, in such case, if you need to leave in order to stop doing the wrong thing then I guess you would have to. 😔
@SW-User I guess so. But do I have to leave immediately or shall I phase it out slowly?
SW-User
@WittyKittyfeelinShitty Well, when I'm strongly addicted to something, the best why I quit it, is by taking a straight firm decision to stop, and I irreversibly cut the habit at once. I don't know if that's the best way for you too, tho
@SW-User ok. Well I wasn't talking about SW and I don't know how long it's gonna take me to get out but hopefully less than a month. I'll probably have a few bad days but I'm gonna have to accept this as a learning curve and get through it
SW-User
@WittyKittyfeelinShitty Good to know you're not leaving! 😀 😂

Well good luck then :)
