This is really good advice. You'll never be able to give up a bad habit or an addiction so long as the people around you are caught up in the same thing.
For years I was unable to quit smoking, in part because the folks I hung out with and the people I dated were all smokers. I moved to a different city, started hanging out with non smokers and was able to quit in a few months.
