Yeah it's rough though. When everyone around is swearing, it's just second nature. For sure thinking about it is important.

Trauma-san:
Sure, I've quit before.  I started up again, though, although it was basically on purpose, a mental choice.


Anyways, the way to quit is to do the following.  I'm not kidding, this will 100% work.  Whenever you cuss, stop, and resay exactly what you just said, without the cuss word.  Even if you're in a room full of people.... NOBODY can ridicule you or make fun of you for doing that, because it's something positive that you're trying to do.  In a week or so you'll be done with it.

"Man, that was the COOLEST fuckin' movie.... I Mean, Man, that was the ABSOLUTE COOLEST MOVIE I've ever seen"

"Fuck That!"

Wait, I should have said "No, Forget That!"

What an Asshole... no, wait, What a jerk.

How the hell am I supposed to ?... wait, how in the world am I supposed to know?

I'm not kidding.  It's a 100% effective way to quit swearing, it will definately, most positively work.
