Stopping is difficult. If we are talking about additions, they exist in many cases; if we are talking about self-harm, drugs, purging, or even with people. Stopping is realizing you are self-sufficient and if something is hurting you, you need something beneficial or less harmful to replace that addition.

Depends what you're trying to stop. I would first examine the root of your problem - if you can find reasons you are doing something it becomes easier not to do it. Journaling and talking with others can help you figure things out. I'd also weight the pros and cons of whatever you're doing. Ask yourself: What is good about what I am doing/why do I do it? What is negative about what i am doing/why do i want to stop doing it? What is hard about not doing it/why haven't I been able to stop yet? What is good about not doing it/what can I gain from stopping this behavior? If this behavior is dangerous to you or others, it may be time to talk to a counselor or psychiatrist or other professional for support and advice.

Get some hobbies, get something you love to do. Distract yourself from whatever is bothering you. Make yourself so busy that you literally have no time to focus on the bad in your life.

Basically, it depends what kind of things you want to stop. There are different strategies for different things. Since you're not specifying, here are some general tips on stopping: - ask your self why do you want to stop. - make a commitment and ask someone to be your supporter and witness. - celebrate little baby steps (every time you achieve certain milestone, give your self a reward).

I am unable to answer your question, because I am not sure about what you are specifically asking. How do you stop what?

Stop? Stop what? Willpower, effort, trial and error. No one is perfect, you might not stop instantly but if you keep trying you'll get there. Sure you might relapse but it's better than not doing anything to stop at all

If you're trying to achieve, there will be roadblocks. I've had them; everybody has had them. But obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.
